I have had complete passthru's and broken Off-side shoulder bones with bows shooting only 39lbs/ft of KE. 49lbs/ft is quite a bonus, and a lot more than is needed for any deer. I'm very "shot selective" and not in the habit of trying to break heavy bones.

This bow is basically a 3D bow for this year. I could easily change the modules to 65% and get 310fps at 58lbs, but I feel quite comfortable at 55lbs. Why punish myself? Acccuracy wins out over KE every time, whether it be hunting or 3D.
