That bow would not shoot 460+ yards with an 800 grain arrow.

In the Article ist a distance metioned of 466,44 yards. If you calculate it balisticaly the result for this arrow and 330 fps is 465,64 yards with an shooting-angle of 39,5°.

If it smells like poo-poo... then it probably is. What a bunch of bull.

Why ? 330 fps is not possible for this bow I think, but physic is physic.

Like JD says, with tips that thick it would probably shoot like a truck. Friend of mine had a similar bow at 90lb that I regarded as posing tackle and it was outshot by my Boyton single stave at 54 lb.

Thats exactly what I mean, but the speed, arrow weight and the distance match 100% so that are IMHO real data, but from another bow.
This bow never ever.

I agree! I'm sure it's possible, but not by this man, or this bow!

i know this topic has been dormant for a while, but i also wanted to say that i have made a bow with tips that were very large and even at 135lbs it shot slower than my 60, so 200.......never, and the hand shock  especially with the horn tips that size would have even been to much for me ;D ( the 135 bow was originally around 9ft, so i kept cutting it down till eventually i got to around 7 1/2ft and 135, fun to shoot, but the first time i shot it it literally popped 4 ft out of my hand :o)
warbows and fishing, what else is there to do?
modern technology only takes you so far, remove electricity and then what
