test of the bow turbo

[K9carlo]

I tested out the bow turbo today www.bowturbow.com , I shoot an Elite E Force 27 ½ draw and set at 66 lbs. Shooting my bow this way I was shooting 270 fps. I replaced my slide with the bow turbo and it increased the weight from 66 lbs to 68 lbs, my bow is now shooting 284 fps with an increased of speed 14 fps. I don’t see how going up two pounds on the draw weight without the bow turbo would jump the bow from 270 fps to 284 fps. I wanted to do more testing but ran out of time. Tomorrow I am going to decrease the poundage from 68 to 66 with the bow turbo on and see how much speed I lose. Now one thing I did see that I did not like was the string did not sit in the middle of the roller. The string would track to one side of the roller. This worried me because I feel that the side of the roller could cause damage to the string. I need to do a little more adjustment to see if I can get the string to track in the middle of the roller. Next thing I would do is wrap the string with server to protect the string, like the way Matthews bows are.

I will give more updates as I continue testing

How much did your drawlength change? Reports were that it would increase your drawlength by 1"+.

It stayed the same

what exactly does it do?

[K9carlo]

It suppose to give more speed out of the bow without too much of increase in draw weight. They only thing I am doing right now is testing to see what it does and how and give everyone my opinion on it.

Cool, keep us posted

Basically doesnt it just preload the limbs by not allowing the buss cable to slide back on the cable slide? Adding more draw weight?

I bought one , and when I got it i noticed it wouldn't work on BT bows, I gave it to a guy at work, he had Smithfield archery set it up for him, he is shooting a PSE, and evidently at least on his there is some setup involved. any way before he put it on,he was shootng 286FPS after 301FPS, he told me he would give me what I had in it. this was just yesterday.So when they come out with that will work on my Dually, I'm definitley buying one, I'll have to find a way to keep my feathers from igniting!
