RE: Stirring the pot.....again. Penetration
Buckeye, I love the carbons for durability but......I have come to the conclusion that at 65 lbs., my setup is way too light. I have come into my conclusion:
Although I continue to kill deer, on a couple of less than perfect shots, the arrow didn' t penetrate as well as it would have with a heavier arrow. Not blaming the heads because I have used them for many years using heavier arrows and lighter arrows. My spine is fine, just not the punch I used to have. At 65 lbs., 410 grains is not for me. After recomputating what I want to go back too.....I am looking at somewhere around 60 to 120grains heavier, depending upon what shaft and broadhead weight I finally decide on. 100 grain broadhead has been good to me, but taking in other factors, I may opt to go back to 125.
Chronographs don' t interest me much.....my speed will still be around 250-260 or better......plenty of speed, a quieter bow, and I will have more than enough punch!
