I am not speaking of opinion. Im speaking of fact. You are mistaken.
[QUOTE=bronko22000;4355405]But I'm not mistaking KE for momentum.
Yes. Yes you are.

Yes, high momentum and low KE setups. Thanks for proving my point and reversing your erroneous position.

Hear again you are wrong. (thats not an opinion by the way, its a self evident truth)

That is true even with a field point. But not all aim is true and animal move before the arrow strikes. You are speaking of a perfect world. Bowhunting is seldom perfect. Stuff happens so being properly geared 100% of the time and prepared for the worst case, makes those few times when perfection happens, even sweeter. Plan and build for the worst and there will be fewer "I hiut a big buck and cant find it" threads.

You are making my point again and sometimes deer can absorb a great deal and keep on living so gear up with heavy setups like you are trying to kill large animals and you wont be disappointed.

That is so obvious as to not require mention. Stick with me, we will get your mind right.
