    I just got setup with a new arrow combo. Went a little lighter last year (412 grains) but changed back to a heavier setup for this year....

    490 grain total weight (CX Piledriver PassThru Extreme tipped with 125 Slick Trick Magnum). Shooting at 269fps which is roughly 78.75 ft/lbs of KE. I believe she'll get it done!

    Yeah they are flying great for me but I have yet to put one through a deer. Hopefully that will change in the next week or two.
