RE: Arrow information

My specs to a T. 27", 60lbs means a Beman ICS 500. 4" feathers and 100gr tip busts the scales around 320gr. Plenty of speed. Not much KE by what some might think but never fails to pass through a deer. And really, how much extra is needed to drive the arrow deeper in the ground. How extra dead is that deer?
