What is your Bow's arrow speed and KE

[carpsniperg2]

PSE X FORCE! Here are my stats for diffrent hunting situations.

Washington hunting "to be legal" 450g arrow at 75lbs= 307fps KE=94
New Zealand 450g arrow at 83lbs= 323fps KE=104
3d shoots if I change from my washington setup 375g arrow 75lbs= 332fps KE=92
YES MY BOW IS ONE BAD BIT#*

Mathews Monster 7.0 30 in draw @ 70lbs
Arrow weight 415, speed 323 (real chrono speed), KE=96
Plus I have forgiving 7in braces

 Mathews DXT
 70# 276 fps
 420 grains 71.1

[Jellymon]

Maxxis 80ft lbs 250fps .64mo

82nd airborne 77ft lbs 327fps .47mo

Imo momentum is much more importanrt than ke

uhhhhh.... Isn't KE the amount of momentum an arrow has?

Destroyer 340 62lb @ 29.5" 380 gr = 303 fps on my chrono 78 ftlbs.

Both of my set-ups are pretty close in kinetic energy but greatly different in mo.

It takes less than one may think to have enough KE to bring an elk down! There are several on here that have taken elk with well under 40lbs of KE that shoot trad gear. We too have taken a few elk with 32lb-34lb of KE
  All arrows were in the 500grn range & bows were 55# to 60# at 28"

AWESOME elknut.. Practice= Success

I think the deferenc betwing trad. gear hunters and compound bow shooters is this:
WHO use trad. staff they do practice more and they know their limits, I don't think
that they will take 40-60 yard shot, which is in my opinion one of the most impotent
thing to now your/bow limits.
Compound shooters some will not think twice before  taking a shot at elk at 60-80 yards
with out knowing their/bow limits, which is not good.
I'm absolutely agree that we need more worry about to know our/bow limits then KN
