Default RE: Whats wrong with me ???

Droptine, yes the arrow is light. I did specify that it is a 3D outfit. The arrow weighs 280gr. Would I hunt with it? Absolutely not. My hunting arrows weight between 316gr and 330gr depending on which ones I choose, and what shoots best out of the bow. I do not concern myself with KE and penetration on deer sized game. With the 316gr arrow at 237fps I've blasted right through deer, and even broken shoulder bones trying to exit the off side. I do however, concern myself with tuning to the nth degree and tuning myself so I can hit where I aim.

My hunting setup with this SlayR chrono's right at 280fps. Heck, I might back the bow down to about 52 and get about 270fps. Why pull harder? It's about accuracy.
