At 27, im a first year bow hunter. I’ve been shooting for the last 6 months and finally feel comfortable enough to try to tag one this year. Would you recommend either of these for a ladder stand? I know you said they were quiet but I was not sure if you meant it was quiet enough for rifle hunting. Another question is do you have any tips for masking my scent when I am in the woods for the early season?
@theeverydaybowhunter2 күн бұрын
If you’re looking for something quiet for bow hunting, the True Timber isn’t bad, but the Huntworth would be the better choice. Both would work for a ladder stand easily. As for scent control, here’s a post I put together that will give you ideas for what to do. There’s a lot there, but it’s a guide to understanding how I go about it. It’s probably excessive, so take it for what it’s worth. Remember, making sure the wind is in your face versus at your back is the best way to manage scent overall. Knowing if a spot is good for a west wind versus an east for example. Here’s the link: archeryhunting.com/26-scent-control-tips-for-deer-hunting/

If I'm recalling correctly, Roy Weatherby shot a warthog with a 460 weatherby and 500gr solid on an african safari. Even with over 7,000 ft lbs of kinetic energy, that bullet was likely a .458 entrance and .458 exit hole. I think that the warthog ran something like 400+ yds. He also shot a lot of game with the 257 wby and noted how quickly all of it died, and the size of the wounds. Things die from a lack of oxygenated blood flow to the brain. The more blood and oxygen you take away quickly, the faster the animal dies. Therefore we should place our priorities on hitting areas that will effectively cause this, and do so with something that will do as much damage to a specific, targeted bodily system as possible within reason. With rifles you can choose whether to affect the nervous system or the cardiorespiratory system, with archery we're pretty much stuck with the latter. I know how much ranch fairy talks about shooting the 3" cluster of valves and blood vessels that sit in the "Vital V", but any shot that collapses the lungs will cause a rapid loss in oxygenated blood flow. Shots to this "vital v" area only induce a higher chance of hitting the larger bones in the front part of a deer, which is why the people preaching for these shots talk so much about little single bevel heads and heavy arrows. If our end goal is to dispatch game as quickly as possible, the focus should be on putting a shot as close as possible to the targeted area, and using a projectile that does the most damage to this area. This already starts to rule out the extremely heavy and light arrows, as heavier arrows are less forgiving when it comes to unknown external ballistics. Moving animals, unknown ranges, winds, and to an extend even the shooting of the bow. Lighter arrows may be more forgiving on the shot, but can lack penetration, especially if using larger broadheads. This can be countered with smaller heads, but doing so reduced tissue damage and extends the time to death for the animal. At the end of the day a hole through the lungs will kill game, but if we weren't worried about doing so quickly we could just shoot field points, and have track jobs over 400yds. For the sake of the efficiency in ending a living creatures life, I can't think of any reason for the AVERAGE adult male archer (28-30" draw length 60-75lb draw weight" to not shoot an arrow between 450 and 550gr, between 265 and 300fps, with a broadhead of at least 1.5" of total cut

Back when I was shooting a PSE Carrera with a overdraw rest at 70lbs with a 30in DL, I was all about speed. My arrow weight back then was about 365gr tipped with a NAP Spitfires 3 blade. I had no clue on how to tune a bow back then and couldn't get a fixed blade to fly. Information was pretty lacking back in those days and I was in my mind cheating by using the spit fires. The fisrt deer I shot with those arrows I lost due to lack of penetration. The arrow pretty much stopped dead. I ended up schooling myself by driving 2 hrs to the nearest bow dealer and finding out why my arrow stop dead. It was then I was shown how to tune my bow and my arrows to my bow. Also my arrows were to light and the spitfires were expending all its energy when it first hit the deer. I am a much better archery hunter now because of my mistake that day. I am still a speed guy at heart and shooting an Xpedite NXT with 450gr arrows at 312fps tipped with a single bevel broad head. I have nothing but complete pass throughs whether i hit a shoulder blade or ribs. Thanks for the great videos and keep them coming.
First off,thank you for your service sir! Second, you are spot on! I've never shot over a 425+/- grain arrow and I've killed many whitetails and hogs. Can only remember a few that were not complete pass thru's. Most of my bows shot between 280-323 fps. People kill elk with mid 400 grain arrows alot. If youre lobbing spears at critters,you better be real close, especially witetail. Great video with lots of good info! Ready for the next one!

Quite a bit to unpack here... you threw out a bunch of different slug-feet v kE numbers and used several comparisons that need some validation. Where did you get your numbers for the amount of kE for taking deer? I would appreciate you citing a source. I have data from 7 western states game offices to share when I receive your citation of sources. You've compared bullet caliber to being equivalent to the arrow, which is incorrect. The "caliber" of the bow is the bow's specs - draw length and draw weight, whereas the arrow equates to the bullet - the projectile. You then use an age-old argument of throwing a "toothpick" at your buddy, versus throwing a Bowie knife at him. This comparison is extremely disingenuous and inaccurate. A toothpick weighs 0.01 grams, while a Bowie knife weighs 425grams, the equivalent of shooting a bullet weighing 50grains versus one that weighs 5,000 grains. If you can, find me a caliber of civilian firearm that can shoot both and tell me how that turns out. You've made a comparison that equates to shooting an arrow that weighs 4.5 grains to one weighing 450 grains. Pretty far stretch there by any means. I am quite certain that if you took off 25% of the total weight of the Bowie knife in your comparison by removing part of the wooden handle, and then threw that same sharp knife at your buddy, he'd be at least equally harmed, if not more by the lighter knife that is now travelling faster at his head. I can't weight for you to post that video 🤔

@@LancePostma-ry9mc The caliber to arrow weight is a comparison referring to the ammunition used. You actually proved my point. I go through this in the video. Your bow, draw length, and draw weight are the determining factors in what the optimal arrow weight is for that bow. I think you tried a little too hard at picking this apart versus understanding the analogy comparing ammunition and how the physics of weight affect both ammunition and arrows. The toothpick to Bowie knife example was supposed to illustrate a “far stretch” between the two. As for the KE and Momentum minimum charts in the video, all you need to do is a simple google search and it pops right up and is featured on many industry websites. The formulas used are those utilized by the famous arrow researcher Ed Ashby. Please look at what I’m saying in the video. I’m describing how to find the most optimal arrow weight for your bow.

Based on my own experience, it matters. Back in 2007, I was slinging 458 grains of TAW with a 100 grain Montec. Had a doe at 20 quartering towards, put it on her shoulder because that is where her heart and front of lungs lined up and let it fly. When it hit, there was the loudest THWACK I ever heard. The arrow just stopped in her shoulder dead in its tracks. I watched her limp 200 yards uphill back to the tree line. I did my due diligence tracking her that night and again next morning. She had survived and I said never again. I grew up shooting and hunting trad because my father is a bowyer and had only a few years prior got into compounds. So, from then on I started building my compound arrows like my trad arrow, which is ten grains of arrow for every one pound of draw weight with at least 20% FOC and single bevel broadhead. Now, no matter the angle, no matter the size of the whitetail, and no matter what bones are in the way of the vitals, nothing stops my arrows. For those compound hunters who are hung up on speed, if trad guys can get it done with bow speeds as low as 140 fps, then I don't know what your problem is.

Finally someone using their head… there have been calculators online for a very long time, anyone taking a few minutes in an attempt to balance out all your numbers reveals an obvious answer. A balanced build will increase effectiveness across the board… an imbalanced build can top the charts on specific numbers but at the detriment of other numbers. Why do people insist on compromising in the opposite ends.. build a proper arrow and you find it can take down larger game animals with less draw weight and still have decent trajectory even at range.

Step into the recurve/longbow world of very slow bows shooting 140-160fps and thats where the heavy arrow weighs Supreme.

Well your comparison between rifle round weight and arrow weight are just misleading at best. A rifle is firing a projectile at an extremely fast speed regardless of the weight of the bullet. There is not rifle not capable of full penetration of an animal. The reason heavier rounds are better is due to energy transfer into the animal. The heavier the round the more energy you are dumping into the animal, and normally you're shooting some kind of bullet that deforms and increases in surface area upon impact. But we're not killing deer using energy transfer with a bow, we're killing deer by cutting through their vital organs and causing as much mass hemorrhaging as possible. In that case we're discussing penetration and broadhead size. The best case scenario would be if you could shoot an extremely fast arrow with an extremely large blade accurately and get full passthroughs. That is what would make a bow and arrow the most deadly. Of course that's not possible in reality because there are trade-offs, mostly being between speed and penetration. It really doesn't make any sense to shoot an extremely heavy arrow very slowly in reality. Again we don't care about energy transfer, we care about penetration. The only reason you're saying to shoot a heavier arrow anyway is because you believe it will drive through the animal better, which may be true, but at what cost, and how much better? You're going to shoot a 605 grain arrow at 213 feet per second because you think that gives you optimum penetration, but my bow shooting a 365grain arrow at 315fps with a fixed blade on the front of it zips through anything. So if we can achieve full passthrough with a lighter arrow moving much faster, there legitimately is no reason to shoot a slower moving arrow. You get more deviation in your yardages, you give the animal more time to react, and you truly are not gaining any substantial advantage in penetration.

But, just like I discussed in the second half of the video, that doesn’t mean that your 375 grain arrow is the most optimal weight for your bow, draw weight, and draw length. This video was not a “use super heavy arrows” video. It was a use the most optimized arrow weight for your specific setup and hunting style video.

You can also find older versions to download and play with in excel, they just have fewer bow and arrow models preloaded in. He's mostly concerned with traditional bows, but from the inputs it can give you an estimated FPS, FOC, ft-lbs of KE, arrow weight, and a dynamic spine value so that tuning takes as little time and gear as possible.

While standing there I was thinking to myself, “these writers have no idea what they are talking about”. Fast forward 10+ years and I realized the waist deep grasses I was standing in hid the blue jeans and my jacket matched what could be seen. With time we all learn a lot. I don’t have 5 or 6 deer I can ask “Does this camo make me look like anything scary?” Capturing deer’s reactions seems to be the only way we can estimate that response.

The Sherpa lined pockets on the Asio jacket is a winner for me too. Both are high quality systems, but even the Huntworth Elkins is almost identical to the Stratus and is half the price. I really need to do a comparison video to show this stuff.

Great review as usual. Quick question, where did you get the T-shirt you are wearing
@theeverydaybowhunter12 күн бұрын
I had them made with the Everyday Bow Hunter logo I had created. I have a shop with different designs. Everything has something on the back too. You can see the shop here: the-everyday-bow-hunter.creator-spring.com/unisex-men-s-t-shirts

New bow hunter here. Love your guys content. Been listening to it while driving around all day at my sales job. You guys are down to earth and don’t try to turn hunting into a seal team 6 mission like some KZfaq channels. Good luck this season!

@@theeverydaybowhunter ...I got a flat over a mile back. Tried carrying summit e bike bow and pack...it sucked lol fortunately a truck came to help after 4-500 yds. Those create a good barrier between the tube and tire. I'm adding them this year. I had flat out in my tires and it still went flat unfortunately. Good luck this season!
