Yup you could push a larger broadhead,though if you're using a bigger broadhead you would have to increase the size of your fletchings to help reduce the planing effect a larger broadhead may have the tendency to do.
This will increase drag and slow down the arrow to some degree.A smaller broadhead can use a smaller fletching and still get good penetration without sacrificing too much speed,though a heavier slower arrow fired from a heavier poundage bow will still cut through anything we're going to encounter with ease.


There's no one answer to the op's question as everyones different with different idea's on their ideal set up .
I'm looking into getting a 45lb recurve and taking more time to practice with it.The problem is finding somewhere with enough space to comfortably practice.
