People are WAAAAAAAY to tied up in fps and KE...there isnt a bow produced that wouldnt kill any biggame in North America

When you are paying a grand or better for something that will be obsolete in six months why not ask for some speed to go along with the sound of flushing money down the crapper :chuckle:

But, I agree.  My best year ever I was shooting maybe 235fps.  117 grain broadhead, 4.18" vanes, 2115 X7 black...A lot of flippin critters died very quickly from that setup.  At least a dozen elk along with 80-100 other big game animals.  I remember one large cow elk at 72 yards whose legs buckled at impact.  When she went down in a hole the only thing I could see was blood dripping off the arrow stuck in a tree behind where she stood.  That setup also managed to take three goat doubles on Catalina.  Two of those doubles were goats in trees...talk about comedy! :chuckle:

That was a Hoyt BTW
He asked, Do you ever give a short simple answer?  I replied, "Nope."

what draw length? Speed number seems a little high to me. For a 480 grain arrow.
