Does this sound right?

I just got my new Dwyer over the weekend. Its a 65 lb at 28 inch bow. I already have a lighter Dwyer 56 lb at 28 inches. I was trying to get the same cast out of each bow. - (so I could shoot which ever one I felt like with out having to adjust). Out of the 56# I am shooing a 505 grain 3555 GT. (Arrow speed at 172fps.) For the 65 I am shooting a 647 grain GT 5575.(Arrow speed at 168 fps). For the little bit I shot over the weekend the cast seems to be about identical for both bows. Based on the speeds and weights above does this sound about right? -  Guess I need to shoot a bit more and see what happens.

Looks right on to me. Probably won't notice any difference in cast until you get out to 25 yards or more.

4 fps is hard to see.  If you are a good enough shot you might start to see a difference around the 40 yard mark, but it would still be slight.

Crash, that 56 lb bow is the one I got from you. I won the first 3-D shoot I ever shot with that bow. I was thinking about having Dave take your name off of it, but decided other wise. Dont want to screw up the Mojo. LOL
