Default Youth bowfishing and Carp points

Hello everyone!

Okay, got a few more questions for those veterans out there. I have a recurve setup so my son can bowfish with us. He is 10 yrs old, and doesn't quite pull the recurve back far enough to get good penetration on carp. He has hit a bunch, but they always get off after fighting them on the line for a bit. Anyone have any pointers on what points to use to get a little better penetration to hang on better. We tried the switchblade points which work great out of my 55lb compound. Also tried the Garpoon, but he just doesn't have enough draw length to stick through the carp enough. Any suggesting would be greatly appreciated.

thanks,
jmarti1
