I shoot only one bow and at present I get 60 ft-lb of KE. More than enough to take anything I can hunt with complete passthroughs.

I guess Im the wimp of the bunch. My LX at 64 pounds is shooting a 426 Grain Gold tip at 262 FPS. I believe that works out to 65 FP of KE on BowJackson. Sorry I will work on it. I sure hope the deer arent mad at me.

I guess I am the real wimp here. I shot at 62lbs with a 381 grain arrow out of a Diamond Machete @ 28" draw @ 252 fps and I am getting around 53lbs of KE. More than enough to take a deer. I have shot a bow that was in the 47lbs of ke range and one with KE of 86lbs but the back starts barkin' at me when I shot the Black Knight cams or anything at 70lbs.
