I used to hunt with a real bow (recurve or longbow) and never had a deer go more than 70 yards, some running flat out. Two blade heads, you can usually hear them go down if they are in brush or leaves. Think about the time there. Running flat out,down in 60 yards. Dead in under 2 minutes, probably less. Maybe you should reexamine ethical.
