Re: Kinetic energy for elk?

just curious, how are you only at 266 fps with a carnage rated at what like 345? and your arrow isnt that heavy...what's your draw length 26?

just curious for a carnage at 70lbs and like a 380 grain arrow it just seems low to me

Re: bow string question...

not just getting into archery, but in a sense i guess you could say i am.....back when i was younger and living in wisconsin i never shot over 20 yards, so its pretty easy to sight in and go hunting regardless if the bow is a bit out of tune....now that i live out in utah the last few years and shoo...

So yesterday I fired off 101 shots as fast as a I could and took it down there, hopefully if it stretches it doesnt happen for awhi...
