Assumptions:
- These are not giant corn-fed midwestern deer. I will only hunt deer or turkeys with this arrow.
- Bow setup is an RX-7 ultra drawing 28.5 inches and 62 lbs.
- I regularly pass shots on deer if the angle is not ideal. I usually get rewarded with a chip shot later.
- My aimpoint for broadside or quartering away angles is lower 1/3 of the chest in line with the opposite leg.
- I have killed deer out to 59 yards with my old bow setup (stinger 4 blade on 460 gr arrows).
- All broadhead blades will be touched up and stropped.
- I will shoot 125 grain Sevr 1.75 ( purchased a bunch on sale).
- the Sevr FAQ recommends a 60 lbs compound for their 2.0 cut, but does not mention arrow weight.

Please comment to add data points if you are having success with 2.0 inch 2-blade mechanicals and pulling 65 lbs or less.
-comment with results, broadhead, draw length, draw weight, and arrow weight.

Sonic with a collar, skip the brass there's no point in adding weight without strength. Fyi the new Easton 5.0 that is coming out that is a little lighter than the Axis.

Hit me up if you need anything I do custom builds.
