Default RE: How are youth hunters?

Ok, this has turned out to be a good and emotional thread. I apoligize if I offended anyone. I have almost a decade of elk/deer hunting with bow, and I am still learning new thing each day/year. So, I would like to hear from all the more experience folks what should I give and what should I take out. I am going to use me as example so no one will be offended. Here's my setup:

Bow: Equalizer
DL: 25"
DW: 60#
Arrow weight: 360 grn
Speed: ~250 fps

KE = ~50 ft-lb
Momentum = 0.4 lb-s

Compare this to a 450 grn and 200 fps:

KE = 40 ft-lb
Momentum = 0.4 lb-s

In this case, which arrow/speed is better? Shall we say they're the same theoretically? Which would you choose and why?
