Ok, my eyes just started bleeding, and there is an immense pressure in my head. That's usually a sign that I have learned enough for today.

I havent followed all of the bickering closely, but I think you guys need to squash it....no need to fight about stuff like this.

My thoughts on bowhunting are to keep it simple.

Simple bow set up. low poundage (mid 50's to 60#), perfect draw length...one or two pins, catwhiskers, etc...(thats perfect for me anyways...you may be different)

Relatively heavy arrows, with sharp replaceable blade broadheads, tune it to fly as true as I can, and then make any adjustments, if any, to make the BH's group better.

Make the final sight in adjustments with my bh's and then practice. Practice, practice, practice. Just a few arrows a day though, so it more closely resembles hunting. Practice awkward positions and such as well.

What does all this have to do with KE you ask?

Nothing, but it has to do with this thread in the fact that, like I said before, most hunters dont need to worry about this stuff. So why argue about it?

Unless your shooting cape buffalo, or you only draw 35 pounds, you really dont need to worry about this stuff. Sure its interesting, and good to understand, but to fight about it. Come on guys....spit on your hands, shake, and make up!

As long as you take into consideration what game you're after, and whether or not your bow can humanely harvest them, not much else matters. Just make sure you're up to the task, thats all! We're bowhunters, not physists!

Have a good one---Matt
