It's good to see this thread still active! I love looking through all the success hunters have had with lighter equipment. All of my kills have been with 48-52#, except for small game. But it's nice to have proof to show the rookies and nonbeliever's of what can be accomplished. Great job everyone!

Several years ago I had a wheel shooter come up to me while I was hunting with my 45# K-mag.
He asked me " can you actually kill something with that?"

41# Morrison Shawnee longbow and 635 grain arrow.
That''s the exit hole in the photo.

My wife shoots 40# at about 26. This buck was at 12 yards. Complete pass through from a ground blind on a double lung dead sideways hit and I had to wiggle the firmly embedded Grizzly on the 2016 shaft from a tree root. He didn't even know he was hit and wondered off 40 yards and fell over. She has cleanly killed several deer with this set up. Girl can shoot!

A doe she took with the same set up.

Found this guy last year and took him with a 44@30 BW 2114 shaft and a 145 grizzly. Hard shoulder hit going in. Almost made it all the way through the opposite side. He went maybe 25 yards and fell over. Really glad I was using a Grizzly.

44#@30 17 yard shot. 145 Grizzly on a Arrow Dynamics shaft.

Here's my Sept 2017 bear shot with a 40# modified Quinn Stallion (homemade riser). It was a hard quartering away shot (in the picture you can see a bit of blood from the exit hole in front of the left leg) and was a clean passthrough. Died in sight 20 yards (and just a few seconds) from the hit.
