Default RE: I am shocked! Bowtech staff

For my own edification, I went fast and light this year. Bought an Elite Synergy 70#, which I dropped down to 65# for hunting. It's set at 29" and I'm using a 27" Maxima Hunter with 2" Blazers and Muzzy 75 gr BH's. Weighs 354 gr and goes through my ProChrono at 310 fps. I took two deer in Illinois this year, an 11 pt buck (141 gross) and a doe. Both were shot angled away. The buck was shot over the right rear hip taking the right lung and centering the heart. Did not go through the chest. The doe was similar but from the other side. Neither went over 60 yards and the sound of their fall was obvious. I like the results. Don't have to worry about range 'till it gets beyond 40 yards then I switch pins. Oh, the fixed blades hit with my field points and fly like very fast darts contrary to what I've heard about fixed blades not shooting well at speeds over 300 fps.
