I break elk shoulders on the regular with a recurve. I once screwed up bad and shot a cow elk smack in the ass, right through the thickest possible part of the hams. That 680 woodie, with a single bevel 2 blade, penetrated over 22 inches of thick, solid muscle, AND took a chunk out of her pelvis. It took a few minutes, but I watched her fall down dead. The right arrow is no joke.

Also see my high FOC arrow building playlist and the Bare Shaft video. Perfect arrow flight is a huge contributor. It's honestly the pass / fail of bowhunting.

@@RanchFairy I watched it. It's a great tutorial. Next year should be fun!!!

Yep. Sometimes we make mistakes Good arrows make it better!

If it’s your draw side shoulder you can use a mouth release.

Add single bevel and arrow goes through the deer no problem. That's the change I'd make.

Boom

@@RanchFairy also want to note I was late to the game this year, having a kid gets in the way of things so your three blades are amazing for people that don't have the time to put into learning to sharpen and they are also concentric so tuning arrows is a lot faster. Both things you touch on in your promotional video for the broad heads but I want people to know, they don't have to devote themselves to weeks and months of arrow tuning and learning to sharpen, the three blade broad heads are a great "training wheel" system to get people started with heavy broadheads and they are monkey proof for sharpening. Rock on.

Time to adult arrow your compound.

@@RanchFairy On that mission next thank you for your content and help!

Paying attention Reduce the variables

@@RanchFairy exactly

@@RanchFairy I have been working on my hunting group to look into basically trying to follow the rules Dr. Ashby layed out. I got one guy talked into it 2 years ago and we finally got another guy talked into trying the RF 3 blades this year. He has seen some nice animals in the past few years but has been afraid to shoot them. I told him to get a good arrow system so you can confidently aim at the vital v. BTW the Dr's rules have been working great for me and the other guy. Thanks for the great content.

@@matthewserkert4401 already bought the arrows, but the broadheads are always sold out when I check on them.

Careful with those inserts they say on there page to not use them if you’re DW is over 60lbs but keep in mind if you’re shooting a heavy arrow if at lower poundage that insert is going to see a lot more force on impact

I e shot a lot of ethics components I made the mistake of going light on the outsert system with the 85g and if you make a hard angle shot they’ll bend I shoot 65lbs with 30” DL out of a RX4 , I contacted ethics and they told me with my specs the inserts would bend unfortunately I didn’t have that info before ordering , went with IW titanium sleeve with Easton Hit inserts so I’m still keeping my 85g upfront but my outsert system can take any abuse I throw at it now

Thanks for the info, I missed that on their website about the spinning inserts. My Draw weight is 70 lbs with a 28 1/2 inch draw. So far I have killed 4 deer with theses arrows, Grizzly Stik 240 with the 125 grain spinning insert and the 200 grain Massai broad head. The inserts are holding up very well so far and I will keep a check on them.

All I'm saying is the spinning insert WILL NOT SAVE YOU but they are supposed to have magic properties. It's BS. Getting your bow squared..... bareshaft tuning, and some work.

Not according to the “perfect shot placement” folks. Plan B is the Plan

Hey John. Curious what you would suggest for an accurate, credible, unbiased news source. You seem heads up.

How do you like the vpa’s ?

@@rattlinbucks I shoot 200gr VPA single bevels. Buy the stay sharp guide and some sandpaper and you can get them razor sharp. Shot a doe 2 weeks ago and shot as she stepped and hit her back but the arrow was 12” into the dirt. Broadhead is completely fine. The doe ran and then stood up on a ridge 70 yards away and started walking back towards me then started wobbling and ran 50 more yards and died. Only caught one lung on the top of the last lobe. She lived for 3 minutes, had I shot her with a mechanical that scared her at impact she would have probably run full tilt 500 yards before dying. Broadhead was sharp after the kill and is back in my quiver on the same arrow! No more broken arrows with single bevels!! No need for the improved steel, get the black ones as I sharpened those for my brother and they are was easier to sharpen, and you will beat your head against a wall for 4 hours minimum with the harder steel trying to get it sharp for the first time.

Waddell is worried about paying his bills and using his g5 mechanicals that pays bills

All those guys have skin in the game.

That is exactly what he said

I’m pretty sure Aron Snyder has suggested the same thing.

He's right... if you use mechanical broadheads

Gerber Randy Newberg version. The smaller one.

Agreed

Never tested it on meat But - maybe I’m playing with it 😂 shhhhh

@@RanchFairy I can't wait to see the results because you can get lapping films and glass blanks from kme that goes down to.1 micron so I'm sure you can get them super sharp and they be so sharp a animal probably realize it was shot and wouldn't just bolt when it's shot and bleed out quickly and I've cut myself a couple times right after sharpng my microtech ludt m390 steel knife and not realizing I even cut myself till I seen blood in the floor and needed stitches so I think you're premium broadheads that has tool steels and day six with S30V which is another really good steel and with a Rockwell hardness between 58-62 will be pretty easy to sharpen and will take a really keen edge

Ha! If you point out the bullies - they don’t have any bully factor. Not defensive - it’s just a way to reduce the troll nation. Hit first or be hit!

@@RanchFairy I understand. Just sharing how I personally perceived it at initial take. I have been studying the physics(for some time), and trying to make sense of the mathematical (abstract) data and I'm at a loss. Can I shoot you an email to give you my thoughts? Could be beneficial to us both I think.

@@alphapapa5383 Troy@ranchfairy.com

We do

I have a bear constrictor. advertised as shooting 410 I believe. I have 22 inch Sirius Archery Phoenix bolts with 110 grain inserts and am shooting the 125 grain Grizzlystik Samurai Overkill. I haven't had a chance to shoot a deer with it yet but the arrows fly beautifully out to 40 yards. haven't really shot beyond because I don't plan to shoot past 40 yards with my heavy bolts, My FPS dropped from 410 to 340

I’m using a 125 black hornet ser razor. It’s a vicious little monster. Also known as “the foamer”.

Because if you point them out and strike first - they don’t comment! Light makes roaches run! 😂

I honestly don’t know

Matthews! Curious what you would suggest for a credible accurate unbiased news source.

@@paulwakefield1015 There is not any news source that is entirely credible, accurate, nor unbiased. News sources are staffed by human beings, and as we all know, human beings are flawed. Jesus Christ is a reliable source of information, but it is not exactly new.

@@matthewserkert4401 are you a Christian ?

@@paulwakefield1015 What do you think, Paul?

@@matthewserkert4401 it sounds like you are. But I’m confused . Doesn’t your Christ teach love, grace and compassion? Yet you’re yelling FU human.

Gerber Newberg edition - smaller one

Yes you did

Haha I went back and found it. That is the PERFECT example of a plan B arrow doing its job! I was sold on heavy arrows about 6 years ago when a 200+ pound boar I shot at night turned at the shot. He didn’t jump the string. He was alerted when I put my red light on him and went from slightly quartering towards to straight facing me by the time the arrow got there. It hit him just below the right eye, he ran maybe 30 yards or so and piled up. The nock was barely sticking out under his eye and the broadhead was poking out of his undercarriage slightly. That arrow was right at 550 grains with a QAD exodus swept blade broadhead.

Great
