I'm listening.......curious as hell.....lol

 

He's either got them mixed up or he's crazy

 

:sign10: Probably to much LSD

 

 

i think hes crazy to. i have got a bow with a high draw weight but no where near there. mines set on 70lbs and i dont know about you all but i think thats a pretty high weight for a compound bow.

 

200 lbs. huh...sounds like he has a pretty small...hat size :zip:

 

:jaw:

 

I would say definitely mixed up. I haven't heard of a 50lb crossbow either

 

with the 50 crossbow i was thinkin it was one of the play ones or some thing like that but i still think hes got them mixed up. i was going to have him send me a pic of each one so i can figue out whats what

 

I say he is full of s:whoo:

 

thats backwards for sure, 200 sounds plausible for a crossbow.

Even old english longbows I thought weren't 200.

 

:icon_1_lol: and my therapist says i`m nuts

 

I remember Tink posting about some very heavy draw weight bows, but I think that they were in the 150 # range.

I call BS on a 200 # compound. Possible, but highly unlikely.

 

Even if one could pull it back, that's not a contraption I would want to be around. Something about Wiley Coyote all wrapped up inside a bow after firing it, comes to mind. ANYTHING goes wrong with that bow, and all heck is breaking loose. I'm not even sure Goliath himself would have had a 200# compound.

 

Sounds like a Genius. I'm betting he got 'em mixed up from talking out his arse.

 

Maybe if he didnt have any cams on the bow and had a string to each limb lol

 

well im about to leave and when i get back im going to try to find him and have him send me some pics then i will post them on here

 

Try looking at the gym he has to spend some time working out to pull that thing back

 

imagine shooting a 1000gr+ arrow at any sort of speed

 

Exactly what I was thinking. I bet it would like you were shooting the end of a garden hose from your bow.

 

I think he got them mixed up.
Im ordering 100# limbs for my Vulcan.......but 200#'s?
I have not seen a compound with a draw over 115#'s before.

 

Skipmaster1, you mentioned ordering #100lbs. limbs for your bow,
where are you ordering them from??

I am looking for 90lbs limbs for my Slayr, and I don't know where to go becs. Martin. only makes them up to 80lbs (which is what I got).

Could you please send me an email?

Thanks.

 

I think the answer to your question is what are the manufacturers and the name of the bows he has....

either the answer is in that or the answer lies on what game you were playing on pogo....I'm thinking hog heaven...cause 200# compound would be kinda like pigs flying.....:wink:

Of course this bow could be made out of car leaf springs.....yep I know of someone who said he made a bow using car spings...course I never saw the bow only heard this guy say he made this bow

My dad made one when i was a kid ! you couldn't shoot it conventionally, we had to put it in the vice (we had a big vice mounted on a pole in the yard) we didn't have any arrows for it either so we used the shaft from a golf club !
It worked ok, could have been better with the right size arrows.

It sounds like your friend simply doesn't know that much about compounds or crossbows, because he clearly has the two mixed up.

Most adult compound bows fall in the range of 40-100#. While the 50-70 range is most popular, and 80-100 are typically considered he-man bows.

Most adult crossbows are fall in the range of 120-200# Your typical modern hunting crossbow is around 150-175#.

So it is very plausible that he has a 175# crossbow and a 50# compound.

 

200 lbs. DRAW WEIGHT

Crazy.
The most I have ever heard of or seen is a PSE made for
Herschal Walker and Lou Ferigno ( Incredible Hulk). It had
a max draw weight of 125 lbs. I believe it was called the Gorilla.
I may be wrong about the name but I saw a press video of it back
in '96.

psedave
bruin 60# and 29 1/5 inch draw
sims
x-weave 300's.

 

hes full of S***:mg:

 

saw a 125# compound once called a ******* mother....some english x bows with a winch would go 600-700# (wonder how they tested that)....

 

There was a local proshop that used to have a beast of a compound. I was thinking that it was 140 pounds, but it might have been the 125 pound that a few others above mentioned.

 

that was a person adavange, unlocked it drew 175# (with a sliding grip driving a can lever device attatched to the cables) locked it drew 82#

 

Hmm, and I am the one in therapy?
