Use the calculator at the left to determine your arrows
kinetic energy. We have put three sets there to compare variables.
What amount of energy is needed to hunt:
- Small game - 20 to 30
ft-lbs is sufficient. Some states may have a minimum
requirement.
- Deer - For whitetail, mule deer,
black tail and the like it is recommended to have at least 40 ft-lbs.
Certainly a well placed arrow with slightly less than that may do the job.
- Bear - We would
recommend at least 50 ft-lbs of energy for black bear and brown bear.
- Elk @ Caribou - 50
ft-lbs or more would be recommended for this type of game. Mostly
because the shots may be at further distances.
