Ok, just want to do some research.

Height: 5'8"
Weight: 130 lbs (yes I'm pretty skinny for the average american guy)
Draw Weight: 47#

Old Bow: Diamond RaptureLITE 2006. Love this bow. Learned to do all the tuning, string changing, form, etc. I made a good choice when decided to get into Archery.

Actual Bow: Commander 2008. Just got it. I still need to get used to it. Coming from the RaptureLITE, this thing is impressively heavy, but boy it stays STATIC in my hand when aiming. I still need some new arrows to have a complete set, perfectly matched for it, but those will come in February for my birthday... in the meantime, I'll get used to it

What about you guys?

With my old single cam Champion bow I was shooting 240fps. I have no idea what the hoyt will do, but I'm guessing 10-15fps faster. So I'm guessing 250-255fps. When I get new strings on and get it all tuned up, I'll find a chrono to run it through. I think I figured my arrows to be around 360 grains. My arrows are 25.5" long.
