For off-the-shelf bows, it is currently the PSE Omen.
The PSE X-Force Omen Pro shoots arrows at up to 366 feet per second under IBO (International Bowhunting Organization) rules.
The 2nd fastest bow is currently the APA King Cobra at up to 362 fps.
The New BowTech Insanity and several other models at rated at 355 fps.
The speed is usually measured using a 350 grain arrow with the bow set up at a 70 lbs. draw weight and 30 inch draw length.
In the real world shooting at lower draw weight and shorter draw length and using a heavier arrow like say a 400 or more grain, you would see more like 320 fps or less on such bows.
Published speeds for bows are always IBO speeds based - as stated above - on 350 grain arrows, a 70 lb. draw weight and a 30 inch draw length with nothing else on the bow - no stabilizers, dampeners, sights etc.

What are Niels Bohr interest?
Eating ice cream, modeling, shooting fish, and cats with bow and arrow. Go to Tivoli with family and friends
How do Newton's laws of motion apply to archery?
1) If you apply a force to an arrow, its movement changes. 2) Since the bow pushes against the arrow (to make it move forward), the arrow pushes back. That's the recoil, that is common when shooting things.
What is The ox bow lake?
an ox bow lake is a formation, not a single entertity. it occurs when a river meanders (horozontal erosion) and becomes so great that when the water seeks the fastest route- it cuts across the meander, naturally straightening the river chanel out again, and leaving a horse shoe shaped lake left on its own, which ususally matures into a lagoon or something. there is no 'the ox bow lake' there are 'ox bow lakes' doofus.

How does the phenomenon of interference play a role in the production of bow or shock waves?
Interference will alter the pattern and rate of production of bow or shock waves. Bow waves are formed such as when a circular object plops in water. Shock waves are more linear in creation.

What is a youth compound bow used for?
A compound bow uses cables and pulleys to help provide more power when shooting an arrow. A youth compound bow would be one that's sized for a child or teenager, so it's made using smaller proportions.

Why was the compound bow invented?
There are two parts to the answer of this:(Part 1). In 1966, Holless Wilber Allen invented "Compound Bow" with triangular wheels / cams. He was then granted a patent right in 1969.Only Holless Wilber Allen could answer this question from an inventor stand point.(Part 2). The differences between a Compound Bow and a Traditional Bow, are the existence and the non-existence of the wheels / cams for the two bows, and the relative resultant size of the two designs, with compound bow being much shorter than a traditional bow.The design of the compound bow introduced 2 new ways to how an arrow is shot, which could be viewed as an advantage or as an improvement in efficiency and effectiveness with weapon design. First, the smaller overall length of the compound bow allows a hunter to move around in the woods with the possibility of the bow catching onto plants and branches greatly reduced. Second, the existence of the wheels / cams requires maximum effort in pulling and minimal effort in holding & aiming stage allows a much longer and steadier hold time when compare with traditional bow shooting of the same draw weight, hence making shooting an much easier task with better accuracy (less shaking of the bow arm). The draw length and tension level of a compound bow feels exactly the opposite as how a traditional bow was pulled.In other words, the design of the compound bow greatly reduce the human factors and uncertainty in archery. The invention of mechanical release also suggest the same by taking away the possibility of string "plugging" when a compound bow was shot with finger release. There are many debates on whether the design of compound bow is taking away too many human physical elements out of the sport of archery. Compound archery is currently not one of the Olympic Archery shooting style.Answer provided by: CUPID'S GATE ARCHERY - San Francisco & Marin County www.cupidsgatearchery.com
