I did mention the speed(velocity) in one of my earlier post.

Speed fights friction much like pushing a steel block across a table,the faster you push the block the less friction and the easier it is to push.


I agree with your post to some degree but when you hit bone it would be nice to have some momentum built up for busting through it.

I agree with Arthur that a moderate weight arrow is best for most but my moderate and his moderate weight are different.


I like what the AMO has set up for minimums.IT IS NOT 6 GR PER POUND.It is different for everyone.I stay at the lower end for whitetail but would go up a little on larger game.There is a list of the AMO minimums at www.bowjackson.com



I actually never had a passthru on a deer untill I went to carbon and expandables.Since then, all have been passthru's.GO figure.
