Great harvest!  What is draw weight of your bow and the weight of your arrow?  Do you know the bow's fps speed?  I'm trying to get info for arrow building for next season.  Can't start too early you know.  :)

I wondered the same thing. What is the draw weight of the bow? Weight of arrows, etc?

thanks for all the kind words. the bow is 65# yew selfbow, syringa arrow and dacite tip. the arrow weighed 650 grains. dont know the fps, but the bow seems to shoot really fast. the shot was 10 yards and recovery was less than 80 yards downhill. she died on the run. caught the top of both lungs and the artery. really good tablefare...
