After a little testing I found my 56" Fred Bear TD is too long for in my blind. I'm switching to my Browning Cobra 50". I'm pulling 52# but my concern is my arrow weight. My arrows are 360 gr. i usually go with the 10gr rule. I don't want to change FOC or weight because it is shooting great on this set up. On a styrofoam block I'm getting 14-16 inches of penetration. What do you think of this for whitetail deer?

Accuracy and a sharp head will go a long way to killing a deer. As long as your arrow is flying straight and true, I think you're good to go.

Many bowyers would be concerned about shooting 7 gpp out of a 52 pound bow. If you're not worried about your bow being damaged, that arrow won't have a problem killing normal sized whitetails with lung shots.

Yep 9-10gpp will be better.--For the bow and penetration
