All true.
From my experience this fall, the Exomax has so much power that any worries about penetration are laughable.
One bolt I shot sailed through both of a deer's shoulders, continued on through heavy soybeans for 24 feet until the ground stopped it ... and buried 16 inches in the ground!
I'd say that's a'plenty.

I don't worry about penetration either. All the bows I use are 300 fps. or more. I use heavy Bolts, 430 gr. or more, and never had a problem with penetration or pass through's even in Bears. They have lot's of KE. And I only use WASP Hammer SST's. 100 gr. or 125 gr. A few years ago I only used WASP Boss Heads, 100 gr. Still no problem with Penetration.
Phoenix - 375 gr. BEE's (babyneilsons)

I will say that mine didnt pass through the first buck I shot with mine. 25 yards, shoulder to shoulder hit.. about 6inches of bolt went into the deer. Granted the deer went only 30 yards but no pass through. Thats with a 430gr bolt and 100gr ST head. I wasnt expecting apass through though with the angle and bone she hit
