[QUOTE="Muddyboots, post: 2621541, member: 63925"] Lower draw weight is not a big loss for me with orangutan arms so my power stroke makes up for lower poundage. Buck I killed last year was 32 yards, passed through like piece of paper and slammed into tree behind him. So the 52 is not a big deal. I have shot 100 gr Thunderheads since they came out in early 80's and they have never let me down. I have a xbow Bowtech Stryker 380 but kills with it were uneventful. Funny thing is first 2 bucks were killed on ground were 6 and 8 yds! No blind, just sitting in good blowdown cover. Also killed doe at 45 so it does nice job. The biggest improvement was changing out the light xbow arrows to FMJ's which quieted it down a little but really didn't lose much speed. Still shoots 350 so it packs a punch. But its not the same as watching flight of an arrow! I hope to get one more year but handwriting is on the wall eventually. [/QUOTE]
