A Butterfield Brute.  Cause they look cool,  I can get then to shave like nobody's business, and almost nobody else uses one.

62# @ 30" currently

What animal?

What animals?

Some longbows are more efficient than some recurves.

Broad heads are tools...different tools for different objectives... :campfire:

Mr. Green I'll be sticking to whitetails for awhile and the occasional squirrel or rabbit that gets too close.

A ton of game has fallen to woodsmans and snuffers.
I am liking simmons interceptors out of my 63# longow.
I can get them very sharp and they work well with my set up.
I will also be using 160 gr grizzlys this september with the same bow on my elk hunt in september

I've used snuffers for quite a few years now out of different longbows including a 39# Harrelson, they have never failed to provide me a quick clean kill. Just remember what ever your choice make sure its sharp, sharp, scary sharp, and it will do the job on deer.
