Default Elk and mule deer hunters...

Just curious on what kind of bow setup you have have.

ex.
Bow type, poundage, arrows, broadheads, and what you have your top pin set at (20 yards..etc)

I shoot a mathews feathermax, apa ultimate rest, i draw 70lbs and shoot easton carbon aeros 300's. I go with wasp 100gr. 3 blade fixed blade jacks 1 3/16 cutting diameter. My pins are set at 20, 30, and 40. This setup seems to work awesome for me getting pass throughs on every elk that i have arrowed. I arrowed my cow a second time this year at 50 yards and still pass thru. i was impressed. My partners use spitfire expandables and swear by them but i have had soooo good of luck with the wasps that i refuse to change. If it ain't broke don't fix it.

Hoyt Vipertech 67 pounds Oh wait it is all below in the sig.

Pins are at 20, 30, 40, 50 ,60. I could probably get rid of the 20 yard pin since the first three are very close together. I like to have it for the tree stand shots while deer hunting though.
