I noticed that the latest issue of Peterson's Bowhunting & Bow and Arrow Hunting, both have articles about using light, fast arrows for deer sized game.

I don't think either article is promoting shooting at the very lowest arrow weight limits, but they seem to be saying that lighter set-ups have a greater benefit when shooting at small animals the size of deer, when penetration is not much of a concern. I think it's pretty much a given, that when you get into the elk, moose and large bear category, that heavier arrows can start to shine a bit more.

I must admit that I like shooting both. For many years, I heaved logs with my recurve. No sights, no release, no bow quiver. There was a mesmerizing beauty to the flight of those arrows coming from an almost completely silent shot. I may go back in that direction in the future, but I would not do it because I can kill more game that way, it would be because it's fun.
