They aren't AS efficient, but a heavier arrow won't likely get you so much more punching power that you'll destroy a deer if your lightweight arrow isn't performing at all. I'd argue based on those results that even with lightweight arrows, bows are pretty darn efficient (though they are measurably more efficient with heavier arrows) when compared to heavy arrows. Most efficient - 650 grain arrow, 195 fps, 55 ftlbs KE Least efficient - 250 grain arrow, 294 fps, 48ftlbs KE Are bows transferring KE similarly efficiently to arrows of various mass? Take a look at the results of some testing with different arrow weights. The result is a loss in kenetic energy, this is what you need to punch through those deer I am just saying there is more to it than just the broadhead, KE is critical to drive any arrow combo through. Last year with that setup, I put a terrible shot on a nice 8pt, I hit it high and forward, ended up right on the should plate, but with the kenetic energy of the arrow from my 68lb switchback, the arrow penetrated through that bone plate, yes bent blades, but blades that went through, arrow went in about 12 and broke off, result deer down in 25 yds. Currently I am shooting a 450 grain total weight arrow. In my 34 yrs of bowhunting, I have shot most types of broadheads and have had success and loss with many. I happen to currently shoot 2 blade rage, I like the shot accuracy.

Most times when shooting a deer or bear you WILL hit some bone. The result is a loss in kenetic energy, this is what you need to punch through those deer. With todays emphasis on arrow speed, many people are shooting too light of arrows to achieve those speeds. Sometimes it is too easy to just blame the broadhead.

I know strange things can happen but after watching the go pro video.this deer should be in the freezer.Īnyone else have similar issues with the 2 blade rage? I shoot a 3 blade rage and have had zero issues on the deer I have harvested. followed blood for 400 yards and could have put all blood found in a thimble.ģ years ago he shot a doe at 20 yards hitting it for a easy center punch double lung shot and the arrow literally hit and deflected along its rib cage straight into the air.deer was shot 3 weeks later with just superficial wounds My guess was he JUST clipped rear of shoulder blade and the arrow skipped towards way deer was facing. The arrow only showed 12 inches of penetration, broadhead was bent about 20 degrees, one blade was bent pretty good, luminock fell off on impact, and arrow fell out after 60 yards. Deer was quartering away 25 yards, front half of deer was slightly more broadside. My bro shot a decent buck last night, go pro showed a near perfect hit yet very little penetration showed on arrow.
