My goodness. How far is that...7 yards?
 
I’m surprised they are feeding out so early with the late rains, it is the greenest I have ever seen it here on the farms we hunt ?
 
...Sarg, last years hunt...
...BeeMaa, yes about!
 
How many pounds do you advice for a critter like that, with trad bows?
...well, there are some experts here with more know-how on your question, but I know of a very experient hunter in Namibie that cull excess Eland with a 45# trad bow at short distance [15 m]
 
I would bet on something more powerful, but I sure don't understimate the penetration that achieves a cut on conctat broadhead...
