You won't see a stick bow get that. I have shot 65# on a Widow in the past and I bet it barely hit 190 with the heads and heavy arrows I used. That is just from calculation and not official so I may have not even gotten that.
With your average stick bow I think you may be looking at 150. That is just from personal observation and isn't an actual statistic. The important thing is, any 50# stick bow with the right heads and arrow weight will kill any animal you wish to kill. In my experience the best stick bows with longer draws will shoot in the 180's to around 190 with 9gpp arrows. That's probably right. I just have never really worried about it. My draw is around 29.5 I don't worry too much either. I want an efficient bow but there are a lot of qualities in a trad bow I value more than speed.
