You will really like the VPA's. They are expensive, but he!! for stout. I have one that has been through a couple of turkeys and half a dozen deer.

I got tired of throw away broadheads after you kill something. Bent/chipped blades and ferrules.

I forgot to mention that my hunting bows are in the 50-55 pound range at my 29.5 inch draw.

A couple more things about noise. Solid broadheads and smaller fletching also reduce arrow noise. Vented broadheads tend to whistle and most of us have heard the noise big fletching makes. Think flu flu arrows.

My theory on arrow noise is this. When a fly buzzes your ear, or you catch something flying towards you out of the corner of your eye. What is your reaction? You have an immediate instinctive reaction. Just like deer "jumping" the string.
