I do not have any knowledge of the bows you are asking about, but I do know somethings about power of a bow with deer after over 25 years hunting crossbows for deer.

Will a bow which shoots 245 fps & 65 foot pounds be enough for you, yes ........ at short distances. Remember that those calulations are at the bow, not out at 30 yards. Crossbows do have a great tendicies to loose speed father fast, which in turns lowers your KE. I have a bow that is 150lb pull and shoots 270-275 FPS and it has more then enough energy to pass through deer. Many even use bows of this poundage and speeds to hunt moose. The thing to remember is that it is shot placement that is most important. Even your most powerful crossbows, when your shot hits the shoulder of a deer, you could be in serious trouble in trying to recover that animal.

Hotburn76 I understand what your saying about not having pass throughs with an arrow, but I think that I want to have a second hole for a good blood trail. BUt I do think that once your arrow head passes through the animal, from that point forward it is wasted energy. When you have those higher poundage bows, it is not if you are going to get a passthrough, but how far your arrow will travel after it passes through. On the flat, my Relayer usually gets close to 20-30 yards, unless it strikes solid bone. How far ddo you want to travel to recover your arrow after the shot, sometimes I think looking for my arrows is too far
