Default RE: Do I have enough kinetic energy?

i just tweaked my setup for the highest KE i can get out of it. shooting heavier arrows and at a decint speed. not sure what im pushin but on target puts me at roughly 260fps and almost 70lbs of KE. aloooooot higher than my 55lbs of KE i used to shoot.

funny....i could posted a very similar pic a couple days ago. sent it through my broadhead target(a 3 inch thick piece of hard foam...usually stops anything) and i have a pallet leaning against my haybale backstop...blew through the top board, and up passed the 125gr fieldtip into the brace board...that was amazing. i had to saw up alot of the pallet to get my arrow out!

surprised that didnt bend the FMJs...i was curious as to how tough they were...i figured a blow like that would bend the alumanum....if i didnt find my CX arrows id be shooting FMJs most likely
