New string speeds

[RickBarbee]

Yeah, I know most don't care, but there are a few who do.

If you think it's loud, keep in mind when you watch this - the camera is only just below shelf level on the bow, and only an arrows length away.

The chronograph was tested for accuracy not long ago. It's finicky, but when it reads, it's accurate.

Must be you.

I just tested it on two different browsers, my wife's tablet, and her phone. Opens & plays on all.

No clue. It's there, and it works.

Maybe lag got you when you tried to play it.

Played for me. Did not sound very loud to me. Arrow hitting the target was much louder.

Nice. I'm thinking about getting a mountain muffler for my grizzly soon...

It played finally. Sounds kind of loud but I can definitely hear the change in it between set ups. Loud it relative though,like you said. Microphone placement, etc.

Here's a speed test using the same bow, and string, but doing it by the AMO specs of 28" draw with a 10 gpp arrow.

Great speed still. But definitely better sound wise.

Side note.

It's way harder to intentionally short draw a bow to a consistent spot, than one might think.

The draw check did it's job. Bumped the arrow off the shelf once, and pulled it off the string twice.

No way to shoot the bow any way other than at, or before that draw stop.

It was scary though. I was scared to death I was going to dry fire the bow. Made it through it though, and I'm done with that nonsense.

Why do I think there will be other "nonsense" in the future? [emoji1787]

Well, I'm sure there will be, but if it requires me to risk dry firing my bow, someone else will have to do it. I won't.
