krisken, a buddy had his son in the shop at the beginning of the year to set up his bow, he has a PSE spyder I set it up at 38lbs taught him to shoot the right way, opening day of bow he killed a 85lb doe pass thru, and 2 week later he got a 125lb spike, the broadhed (muzzy85 I think) went thru the spike but the arrow stayed and the deer only went 45yards, you sons bow should bring down a whitetail if he hit it where I needs to be hit, In the heart. indians were killing deer long before compounds were developed and speeds hit over 150fps. maryland has a 35lb restriction and I know of bunches of kids who have killed whitetail at that weight
