Wow what’s the pin gap like on an 875 grain arrow?? Just out of curiosity why did you choose to go so heavy?
Myself I’m shooting: 70 lb Mathews V3 31 29.5” DL RIP TKO 300 spine cut to 28” 50 grain SS insert 4 fletch AAE Max Stealth with nockturnal and a wrap 125 grain Slick trick standards, mags, and rage hypo NC Total weight 502 grains. About 280 fps. Broadheads are flying like darts out to 80 yds touching field points holes, ready to roll this year. Putting away the rifle this year for the first time and strictly bowhunting through the whole season. Can’t wait! |
I am using a single pin sight. Absolutely love it. My arrows are sticking out of a xbow block at 40yds.
I seen a lot of elk get away over the years, found many "lost" ones. I just like the Cape Buff mentality. 2 holes always better than one. Plan for the best but have equipment ready for the worst. Nice set up u have. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |
Although I have gone through a few Compound bows over the years, they all seem short-lived, the only one that I keep going back to and really enjoy shooting is the Damon Howatt Original Hunter recurve. It's got me an awful lot of deer and a couple of Moose over the years. Bought mine back in 68'. Very forgiving. Shoot with finger tabs (although at 74 I sometimes use a mechanical release) and Zwickey Black Diamond and original Bear Broadheads.

2010 Hoyt Carbon Element @ 70#
29" draw Easton FMJ 300 tipped with 125 gr Rocket Steelhead or 125 gr Grim Reaper Razortip, about 525 gr total arrow weight QAD drop away old dual caliper release New to me Garmin A1i, sighted to 60 yards - easily within 1" per 10 yards Prefer to shoot under 40 though, closer the better. Now all I need is to somehow become stealthier than my 6'2" frame allows :) Going to try out my Ghost Blind this year again. Worked 2 years ago but couldn't hunt last year due to injury. J. |
Wow!

nice bow

Thanks, it does shoot quite nice. Haha that's funny, the Jack Kempf flat bow I've been shooting the last 17 years is a great bow but definitely not as flashy as this one.
