RE: Does Kinetic Energy = Penetration?
TFOX, good call on that, there is always one in the bunch. I never had a hard time experimenting with stuff. I think at the time I was using them, I was shooting 75 pounds on my Jennings Carbon Extreme. And I know that the one's that I used back then have probably been upgraded by now. Even then though, I knew that they would kill, they just were not for me. I would never tell someone don't go buying mechanicals or anything like that. But I don't have a problem telling people why I don't use them and why I only used fixed, then let them determine what suits their needs.
Arthur, I agree 100% about going too heavy. Currently I am shooting 10 grains per pound, and it is working fine.
