I may have to warm up the cooker and kill a few crows because I am liking the looks of the XP.[:-];) There may be one of those in my quiver this year or three, who knows. I can never leave well enough alone:eek::([:@]

Yeh , Silent .........with your 80# or more of KE .........I think those tips will help with penetration !! Instead of just reaching the earth's core after a passthrough...........you might actually make it to China !! [:-]:D

I shot a 60# pig last week with my 80# ke set up with an Axis and a Spitfire and lost my arrow in a mudhole after a passthrough..........it should've hit China Thursday about dinner time !!! :D


Serously.......I think the original tip would be better on bone.........but unless you have some weak KE..........I can't see there being a big difference !!!

I didn't say that... I said not EVERYone... :)

Did you mean to imply the deer stand still after they hear MATHEWS as they figure that's the safest spot?

:D

I shoot the old style Steelheads- had one go through a whitetail's shoulder (my bad[:@]) last year and pass through! (just missed the other shoulderblade and the head was intact!)
What was most incredible was the gaping hole on the exit- WOW
