Thanks, that sounds like an excellent setup. The vitals sure are bigger when you use a setup that will comfortably blow through a shoulder blade. It makes a huge difference on quartering shots where you either going in a shoulder or out a shoulder.

Its actually hard to stay out of the back shoulder on quartering away deer and I suspect that is the source of all the conversation about "good hit but no blood" It doesn't take much visible angle to hit that back shoulder.

Hadn't seen the price, given possible penetration issues, that means probably a one shot arrow since most non pass throughs I"ve seen result in a broken arrow.

Why shoot an arrow with possible penetration issues anyway?
