Just my experience, +/- $0.02. within the yardage you're speaking of, Tree stand whitetails vs Tree stand blacktails = mute point. I have a simple set up. 52# 28' draw, Easton 2018's, 100 gr Thunder Heads, 200 fps. When I did my part....the knife cut a notch in another tag.
Momentum, Sharp...
I joined the Marines at 17. I went to college right after (to vent from being a Marine at 17). Somewhere between the two I can remember about 50 numb-nut Ya-Who's who should have Never been introduced to beer!
I have hunted turkey on Maui. Didn't see much sign of Axis, though that just may have been the location we were hunting. I have hunted Lanai twice, on the Dole Plantation, and it was worth every $$$ !! Ridiculous deer population at an equally Ridiculous price point. Island hop airfare is cheap...

I practice, Practice, PRACTICE throughout the...
You just instantly thrust me back to Quantico, Battalion Warrior Training, the 20 mile hump back to mainside. I was deployed for Desert Storm a week later.
I'm glad you posted this. I just bought my 1st O/U 20ga intended for ring-necks. The Local-Yocal's claim high base 7 1/2's are "Ta Die Fore" ....But I'm of the mind set that a 2 3/4" Hi base load of 5's or 6's should fluff some feathers if properly centered.

In combat I want fast acquisition/guick follow-up and don't give a d@mn if...
