RE: Stirring the pot.....again. Penetration
It still comes down to kinetic energy and a tuned bow. 100 grains of arrow weight has only a minor effect on the KE. Pull what you can comfortably and make sure your arrows fly true. Carbon or aluminum makes very little in this equation. I shoot carbon because as someone else said " they are wither straight or broke" . It is also important to shoot a stiff enough arrow.
