32 grams is 493 grains. 19kg is 40# Your arrows in this case are 100 grains heavy for 10 GPP. Make a 25 gram arrow and try it. It sounds like a fast bow Maitus. Also I test with a shooting machine. I gives very consistent results and eliminates human bad releases. I do very poorly shooting through the chrono. The machine is about 10fps faster than I can do. I mentioned this back a few posts.

Wow, then i have some hope to make fast bows, thank You :D!
