Rob,

Dude if your not getting pass throughs with 80# of KE an a whitetail something is terribly wrong; and I don't believe it's your broadheads. Because of the design of the Snypers, they use probably the least amount of KE to operate, not to mention the blades are scary sharp out of the package. You should be blowing through those deer like the proverbial hot knife through butter.
Well, that's the case so if not the Snypers, which I didn't doubt, then where's the common demoninator, are my bucks just that much tougher?

380 grain arrow, 301 fps = 76 ft lbs.

oops, I keep thinking of my Bowtech, the 4 bucks prior to that one was with my Hoyt 380 grain arrow, 285 fps, 68 ft lbs. Still should have passed through..?
