Well the 2011 and 2012 are basically the same, especially since I've upgraded to a rod/slide instead of the TRG. With that said, specs are in the sig
Remember that I have a shorter draw and heavier arrow than IBO. I'm pretty certain that the Onza will reach IBO speeds if set up properly.
My wife packed my bags and threw me out, as I was walking out the door, she told me "I hope you have a long and miserable life!"... To which I replied "Oh, now you want me to stay?!" LOL
2011 Onza 3: 70#, 28.25 draw (AMO), 384 gr arrow, 288 fps
2005 Saber: 70#, same arrow, 250 fps

Oh no doubt it will reach ibo, but the question is... not that im a speed freak but more of a curious george, anyway what do u think i can get with a 60 lb onza at 60 with a 29 inch draw and a 352 grain arrow? i was thinkin around 290 thats just a guess though.

Mine is a 2011 and at last check with a loaded string , 29" DL and at 73lbs .......pushing a 395grn arrow it was consistantly shooting 295fps. Im gonna recheck it this weekend becuase I changed the cable slide last night to a hyper-glyde and my 20yrd groups are now an 1" low.Originally Posted by WildWilt15
Made a few changes to the Onza while ago and actually picked up around 5 fps. So now with a loaded string and my hunting arrows its shooting 300-301 fps.......Im pretty happy with that!

With my 2011 Onza set at 70#, 28.25 True draw, 383 gr. arrow, I'm getting 302 fps. Peep, D-loop and whiskers on the string. I haven't chrono'ed my 60#'er yet, but plan to do so soon. I would guess your estimate should be pretty close. You should be shooting 285-290 if the bow is tuned well.
