Default Speed or silence...your opinion

I have a question for you guys. I have two bows, a Mathews Q2 and a Bowtech BlackKnight 2003 model. Both excellent bows. The Mathews is by far the quietest of the two and almost as accurate, which means I shoot a 4 inch group at 40 yards. Now, the BK2 is fast and deadly accurate, I can get a 4 inch group at 60 yards and a 2 inch group at 40 yards.

Since I never really take a shot over 40 while hunting, would you take the stealth of the Q2 and reduce string jump and deer movement at the time of impact or know that you'll get maximum penetration and devastating pass throughs with the BK2??

Also, 20 or 25 yards, no difference, the bows are both tuned well and shoot very tight groups at those distances. I knew I shouldn't have bought such a great backup bow. Anyhow, which would you prefer? I've killed deer with both. Thanks.
