Maybe this has been discussed several times but...
Whats better for hunting a whitetail deer...
Shooting a bow with a heavier arrow, thatl give you 150 ft/s?
OR
Shooting a bow with a lighter arrow thatl give you 166 ft/s?
will appreciate your opinions..
Thanks..

sharpen your broadheads and shoot the arrow "you" feel most confident with. They will both kill quickly..

Jesus, I am gonna guess that the difference in speeds that you posted are not gonna make much difference in terms of the deer moving and causing a hit further back than you want.
Have you looked at Terrys post at the top regarding aiming location ? I am gonna guess that a lot of us aim farther back than we need to or even should, which makes a far back hit even more likely.
