My best guess is you are in the 360 range. What kind of speed are you getting?

I have a 60# setup that shoots 290fps.....and a 364gr. arrow.

I think it's almost 68FP's of KE.

You'll be fine

While it is a little on the light side for me personally, I am sure you will be fine. That set up should put out near 67 ft lbs of KE. That is well enough for a whitetail. Have fun nannywacking!!!

Droptine249, I'm shooting 70lbs., 28" draw, Carbon Express Maxima 250s, 100gr. 2 blade Rage and/or 3 blade Muzzy also 100gr., Mathews Switchback, seems your set up is somewhat like mine, I would say your WILL NOT have any issues with penetration, I took numerous bucks with this set up including a 200lb Illinois buck....GOOD LUCK!!!!!
