Should be good for:
Frogs, rabbits, opossums, coons, deer, elk, caribou, moose, lions, tigers and bears, grizzly, eland, buffs and heffalumps.

What specifically is rattling your confidence?

I would think you should be confident provided you stay positioned behind the arrow.

Penatration should be no problem unless you're shooting cars , even then the compacts shouldn't put up too big a fight . What are you going to be shooting at ?

I sense some sarcasim.  I'd be more worried in my performance than the bows at that point.

If you do much stump shooting you should get a good workout pulling your arrows.

The poundage of your bow should have nothing to do with your confidence. What are you setting up for?

Yes, this is the correct poundage/draw length/arrow/broadhead configuration for squirrels in that you do not have to walk around the tree in order to shoot them.
