Taz, I probably should of just stayed out of it as well. I just can't understand why my bow would be 2.5X more effective with 7 pounds less draw weight, 2&quot; less draw length and the same arrow weight. The only discrepincy that I see is that I actually took my bow to the range and recorded all of that information, I didn't type numbers into a data base and call anybody foolish. I mean, this moose only weighed ~1200 pounds on the hoof and my lightweight arrow surely won't work on it.

You are one post back where I pointed out that you had confused two bows in your criticism.

Congratulations on your moose!

Based on my post, do you think it would have been better to use a heavier arrow for moose? Do you thnk that the same arrow is best for moose and for deer? You wouldn't trade a couple of inches in effective range for 20% more penetration on a huge animal such as you took?
