    Totally agree but doesn't a faster arrow mean less reaction time? I guess this is a dumb thing to worry about.

    I have been working to find the best combo using everybodys help. I want someone to look at this configuration and see if this will do. I am hoping to raise by draw weight to 60 lbs by next season and want an arrow weight that will work for that also. I am also going to use Nockturnals this year and was wondering if by the time I had those how bad it will affect the FOC. I am also wondering if I could just keep the bushing I had or if this one will work.



    Thanks for all the help

    55# DW, 300gr. arrow and a Rage? Sounds to me like a recepie for shallow penetration. High speed yes, but no momentum. I would go for heavier arrow, a good two blade fixed. That would give the best chance for shoot trough, a good bloodtrail and a clean kill.

    Sorry you did not get that. Extreme sarcasm. I hate light arrows, but I hate expandables more.
