Destroyer 350 set at 29.5" and 61# vs. Strother SR-71 29" 61#. Both bows are shot using an Easton Flatline Surgical arrow weighing 335 grains. Jim and Randy from Select Archery test out both bows.
If you want to truly compare the bows. Put them at the same draw length, with the same, rest, peep, and loop/nock, etc. Then shoot the EXACT same arrows throught each, Shoot min IBO weights all the way up 500grains. Some bows push heavy hunting arrows better than other bows, that way you have covered all spectrums, the speed freaks, and the heavy hitting deep penetrating hunting guys.
@dmellotte Actually if you use an arrow speed calculator like the 1 on backcountry bowhunting hes actually 1fps faster than what the calculator is reading. I just did it and hes pretty much right on.
@derickprice1 ibo at 61 # is 305 grains get the facts before running your mouth for every 1 pound of draw you need 5 grains 70 # 350 60# 300 and 61# 305 idiot
Isn't IBO 70lbs, 30 inches and a 350grain arrow. What is he talking about saying that he's shooting a 335grain arrow that's above IBO? Both seem like sweet bows. Haven't shot the Destroyer, but I've shot the SR71. I was very impressed with it. The Strother Infinity seemed nicer though.

@highridinf250 I just put your specs into an arrow speed calculator and you are pretty much right on my friend.
