Lot of elk with my bow. Use thunderhead 100 for my broadhead and now use carbon shafts with my new PSE Carrera bow. Most of my elk were killed with an old PSE Intruder bow and fat aluminum arrows. All have been shot at 35 yards or less. Two from a tree with an old board nailed on it and rest from the ground in the bushes. All were lung shots and all but three died within 200 yards of being shot. If you haven't ever hunted elk you should and I believe anyone that can stalk good and hunt with a bow can kill elk. Most of my elk have been cows but have shot 340+ bulls. Just real hard to get drawn here for bull and can't afford to buy tags out of state. Good luck.
