KE??
 
just curious, what kind of ke are you guys getting out of your bows. I'm shooting a 500 grain arrow at 250 fps so that comes out right at 70 ft/lbs

See sig for my info.

Your setup sounds like a killing machine. Plenty of KE and more importantly MOMENTUM.

BobCo... that guy must have had a half page of information but was told to write a 15 page term paper. How anyone can rattle on saying the same thing 6 different ways is beyond me. Not only that, he puts in all sorts of useless information that wasn't needed for the info. I know that some where in there there may be buried some real meat, but I bored with it after about the second scroll down and gave up. I'm hoping he said my 475 grain arrow strolling along at 255-260 fpsis sufficient tokill a chipmunk.[8D]
