Disappointing 1st Bow Hunt

Since you only asked, how many lbs, I would say minimum 45 lbs, at 15 yards. At 25 yards, I would want more like 50 lbs. But then there is the question of arrow weight. Where is he at there?
But there are so many other questions others have posted that need answers.
Did he target shoot BH's? Are his BH sharp (They won't be out of the box)?

Sounds like y’all need to video the shots and confirm shot placement. If y’all didn’t recover either of them then it’s a shot placement problem or a draw weight and broadhead problem.
I’m not going to point fingers but if he’s hunting and no one around him knows his draw weight, or his broadhead he’s shooting then it’s time to step back a second and rethink the situation. Young kids can kill deer with their bows, but it takes thinking it out for them before they get put in a hunting situation.

20 yards is way too far.
I bet the deer moved before arrow got to them. I know this happens because I videoed my daughters first deer. 11 yard shot. Slow motion you can se arrow going right at the heart but last 1/10th of a second the doe ducked and went forward. Impossible to believe until you watch a shot with your own eyes and then watch the video. At 20 yards there's no telling how much those doe could have moved.
