i shoot a hoyt hypertec at 70 lbs love it....................
I call BS on this one........you seriously say you blew through BOTH shoulders?? I shot a buck the other day at less than 10 yards, with an 80lb draw Bowtech Extreme. I'm shooting heavier grain arrows too, so I have really high kinetic energy and power.

Anyway, at around 8 yards quartered away, the arrow blew through the torso and stuck in the opposite shoulder. It didn't even come close to blowing through and I guarentee my arrow is hitting harder than yours. If you caught the end of the shoulder blades where its really thin, then OK its possible. But if you are saying you blew through both shoulder bones, you did it in your sleep.
It may have, I pulled a shot at 30 yards on a elk and hit him in the front shoulder it blew threw both and they are a lot tuffer to get threw than deer. the arrow didn't exit fully but it did go threw. but I shoot a 70lb Mathews with 2315's and thunderhead 125's. them is big heavy arrows and they penitrait. Im just sayin??
