    Got my arrows and broadhead set up finished tonight. It should be pretty lethal I think.

    Easton FMJ N-Fused 10.2 gr/in
    QAD Exodus full blade 100 gr
    MaxHunter vanes

    429.6-430.1 Grains per arrow finished weight.

    I'm pretty stoked about this setup. I was shooting Flatlines through my CRX at 70 lbs and I knew when I dropped to 60# I would be losing some speed, especially shooting a heavier arrow. Im hitting with about 64 ft/lbs with this setup though, should do the trick.

    Yeah brother, speed is not all it is cracked up to be.
    I do like the speed but also like a solid arrow!
    Your jet set now!

    SWEET!! A Great Combination! Can't wait to see you with one all bloody and lying next to a Big Buck!!
    I love the FMJs. I have been using them for a few years now. Man they hit like a BRICK! And yes they are easy to pull out of a target. At least for me anyways.

    Do you mind if I ask why you went to a 60# bow coming from a 70#.

    I am shooting Easton FMJ's as well out of my mission ballistic with a 125 great muzzy. I believe I'm right around 490 grains if I remember right.

    I decided to go down in weight for a few reasons. My goal with this years bow was to put together (in my opinion) the perfect whitetail bow. In my mind that is a compact, smooth shootable bow. With the 30'' ATA 60# package I feel it meets my requirements to a T. It is a easy pulling bow for when its cold with lots of clothes on, or when your forced into a weird angle to draw and hold. I knew I would give up some speed but that is not on the top of my list of needs. I will be pumping out 64 ft/lbs of KE at 267 ft/sec with this rig. More than enough to do the trick. I still have the 70# CRX if I feel I need it but I am confidant in this setup.

    Very nice. You should be happy. I shoot FMJ and Exodus too. Great combo. The only thing is the AAE Max Hunter Vanes I tried whistled when the flew. I use Flex-Fletch FFP-360 (or SK-300).
