Lighter bows will kill deer as well but they can lack the extra push needed for maximum penetration if the arrow encounters a heavy muscle mass or a bone. My first hunting bow a 2-wheeled youth compound set at 40 pounds on the money still lobbed aluminum shafts toward the target and was difficult to shoot consistently. The best option for shooting any moving breathing target is to pick a draw weight.

It is the responsibility of the hunter to be aware of the most current laws when hunting.

Electronic arrow tracking devices are illegal. Itll work at 15 yards and out to 60 too. That is what the regulations says. Bows of 45 to 55-pound draw weight will easily provide enough force to reach the vitals of a whitetail on a typical bow shot of 20 yards or less.
