Default RE: Importance of speed?

Speed is good! Last year I was shootingMaxima Hunter 350's out ofa 70# Golden Eagle Splitfire 2 with a 6"bh at 296 fps.I took three deer and didn't have to worry about which pin to use unless it exceeded35 yds. Bought an Elite Synergy this year w/7" bh. It's shooting the same arrow w/lighterbroadhead at 65# and 310fps. I have 3 pins set. 0-35, 40, & 50. Took two deer this year. I really like being able to pick a spot and not worry about whether it is 15 or 30 yards. There isn't an inch difference in the point of impact and there is more than enough KE to blow through any deer. Both deer taken this year were shot after they walked past me, over the rear hip, through the lung and, on the buck,centering the heart.The arrow passedthrough a lot of meat andneither deer wentover 50 yards.
