First of all, what is this business about not hunting again this season? You get back out there and redeem yourself. Don't let this get you down. We've all made bad shots and that is part of hunting. I once made a bad shot on P&Y buck at 20 yds. He was quartering away and I aimed too far back. The exit hole only caught the back of one lung. I searched for that deer all day long for a week straight. Never found him. I was very depressed. P&Y bucks are very uncommon here and I thought about that hunt everyday for about 3yrs. Anyway, I know how you feel, but do not let that get in your way of bowhunting. Go back out there and get after them.

As far has your setup, I think you have plenty enough power to punch through a deer with a well placed shot. The only question I would ask is how are your arrows flying? Is your bow well tuned. A poorly tuned arrow can lose a tremendous amount of penetration. Go to a pro shop and have them check your tuning. And once again, get back out there and do your thing!!!
