According to Nature Conservation the following is recommended kinetic energy if you are close to this you will be fine: |
- Impala: 45 ft/lb energy
- Kudu: 60 ft/lb energy
- Blue wildebeest: 70 ft/lb energy
|
|
The formula to calculate Kinetic energy is: |
(Arrow Speed) X Total arrow weight / 450240 = ft/lb energy |
