The "hitting like a baseball bat" argument is crap. You can calculate your KE and see exactly how hard you are hitting that animal. It takes around 40 foot pounds to blow thru a deer, I see very few guys that are shooting carbon that are shooting under 60 foot pounds. I am what I would call an average guy 6'1 29 1/2 DL, pulling 70lbs on my Hoyt Katera XL and shooting a Gold Tip weighing in at 407 grains I am shooting 308fps I am producing almost 86 foot pounds. How is that for hitting hard?
