[QUOTE="jon.henry755, post: 495882, member: 29115"] You guys are all shooting at animals that are much to small for this xbow. We're going to have to let some elephants and rhino's loose to give your arrows a little more of a workout! If you must take something with antlers, maybe a diagonal shot on a Moose or an Elk would slow it down just a bit, but my bet is that you'd probably still have some pass thru's on a diagonal with them as well. Much larger heads will only ruin the flight performance and accuracy of your arrow shafts. The reason PSE recommends the use of 100 grain Steelforce Phat Heads is because of the strength of the head, the flight performance and the fact that 100 grains of weight will provide an F.O.C. of approximately 11.3%. That's a nice balance for a hunting arrow combination. Anything between 10 and 15% is what is generally recommended. Too much kinetic energy, so its sort of like hunting squirrels or rabbits with a 300 mag. Jon [/QUOTE]
