If you put it where it needs to be, it won't matter what's tipping the end of your arrow!

You'll be fine... just put it in the boiler room.
I helped field-dress a huge cow that was taken on opening morning with a 100-grain Rage... busted through two ribs on the way in and lodged in the off-side shoulder. She was down for the count in mere seconds.

Thanks a bunch. I didn't want to get in the woods & get a shot & it not be enough impact to take the elk down on the first shot. I hate to make an animal suffer by wounding it.
