shot placement IS the key - and yes I practice from a stand

that said, when you do hit thicker bone you better have the poundage, arrow weight and broadhead to get it done

My Steel Forces are not flying well after all. I took the steel inserts out and put in the regular aluminum and they fly great. I also screwed in a 125 Thunderhead and again, great arrow flight.

So .... I'll probably drop down in arrow weight to about 580 grains or 600 depending on what kind of broadhead I end up with. I might buy Steelforce, or Magnus or some Zwickey's .... but anything more than 145 grains I bet is going to make me a bit underspined with those weight tubes in there

My field points were shooting well at a higher FOC - and maybe a different broadhead would too, dunno ....

Its a small thing though, I'm shooting lights out, and 580 grains is still good 11 grain per pound arrow weights.
