Default PENETRATION???

I have a PSE Nova with the arson cam on it.. AT their ebsite it syas IBO speed of 295. I've got the draw weight maxed out at 70 lbs. The website doesn't say anything about kinetic energy. Will I have any problems shooting the rage 2 blade and having good penetration? I am trying to get the most out of this bow this year and save up for a better one next year.

The only problem you might have is getting the arrow out of the ground after it passes through whatever you are hunting. Honestly you will have no problems at all.

I think you are going to have a problem . I would suggest you unscrew them , put them in a box and send them my way . Then your problem will be gone !

With good shot placement, you shouldn't have much problem. To give you a more thorough answer though, I'd need to know what your DL is and how heavy of arrows you're shooting.
