RE: Slowing your hunting arrow down?
I agree speed isover rated when it comes to eastern up close bow ranges but a flat tradjectory for the longer shooting western guys might be a great benefit.
Jeff have you really only gotten 2 pass thru's out of 11 deer. A hunting buddy of mine was not getting the pass thoughs he expected. He does his own work on his bow but had never shot through paper. It turns out his tears were poor. He shot well but the arrows were hitting the bull with a slight cant to them which really affected penetration.
