That good 8 point that skirted around me last year and never got closer than 40 yards forced me to take extreme action. My old Reflex (Rosie) and I have been the demise of many deer but it was time to catch up to the modern era of bowhunting. To the best of my recollection, I killed 22 deer with my Rosie, only one over 30 yards, and that was a bit of a fluke.
Gentlemen, I give you Pops......
Pops is a PSE X Force TS and he is wicked bad. I finally got him tuned up and tricked out the way I wanted him. 40 yards is the old 30 yards. For a deer to jump this string he would have to be on steroids. I named him Pops because this thing is far from a lady, this thing is all man. I first bought him with 70 lb limbs. He was a bit cranky. So I did a limb swap with my PSE rep and got the 60 lb limbs, turned all the way to the max, 64 lbs. He is spitting the Easton Lightspeed 30's thru a whisker biscuit (I can't believe I stuck this ugly rest on such a good looking bow but it's the best hunting rest out there) at 307 fps. The 70 lbs limbs turned down to 68 with a drop away rest was shooting 327 but not NEARLY as smooth.
Anyway, I could talk about him like a schoolgirl in love or just show some pics, which is what yall really want to see so here ya go...

A couple of groups at 25 yards, it's as far as I can shoot in my backyard.
Arrows
I don't know if this picture does justice but the 20 yard green pin and 30 yard yellow pin are touching. I'll post a question about that later
I think the pictures of the groups are two pictures of the same group, not 100% about that tho, most of my groups at 25 yds are just like that.
