    "Sweet Spot" question?

    I have heard from a few different places that all bows or models tend to have a "sweet spot" that depends on the draw length, draw weight, and bow where accuracy and performance is at its best. Is this true and is there a certain "sweet spot" that is common on certain bows? I have a 2012 G5 Prime Shift. If this is true I was just wondering if there was a certain draw weight I should try for my 28" draw length where I will get optimal accuracy and performance? Currently I shoot gold tip xt hunter 5575 arrows cut at
    27.5" with 100grain broadhead at 65lb draw weight. Just wondering what some of the bow, tech-savvy people on the GS think?

    imo the "sweet spot" as you call it is largely contingent upon cam starting position. if starting rotation is optimal and cam(s) are sync'd properly then the bow will be the most efficient, make the most speed, produce the least amount of hand shock regardless of DL or DW.

      I've always been told a bow performs best when it's at it's max DL and weight. .. Just what I've heard . Any truth to this ?

        All I've ever heard is that it's best to shoot at the upper end of it's range i.e. if you want to shoot 60lbs go with a 50-60 and not a 60-70.

            Also, experiencing with slight tiller adjustments on top and bottom limbs can improve the shot.
