Depends where you hunt at. Some places I hunt from truck camp others it is not the smartest choice. Several factors to consider make it an easy call when you’ve been there before or e scouted an area.
I don’t glue collars. I don’t see 4mm has better wind drift in my shooting and what I’ve seen. As another said throw a fixed on the front that will negate and difference 1mm in shaft would possibly help if a person was good enough shot to even tell.
Collars increase durability substantially...
I was shooting 4mm for a while but past few years have had and seen better durability with 5mm components. For what you are looking for I’d go with an RIP TKO, brass hit insert, and mfjj titanium collar. That will be the most affordable route for the best arrow as I’ve built many dozens for...
It’s fun to compete. I started in K40 and worked my way up far as you can. Can find a lot of good used target bows here but it’s best to find a shop with a shooting staff as those people tend to upgrade to the new bows each year leaving some good deals on last years target models. Then you can...
A lot on the slow side for what I like. I don’t see a need for anything that heavy for the reasons you mention. Ever get in a spot when you need to judge yardage and don’t have time to range you better be good. I never look at FOC when I’m building arrows. I build for the weight/speed I want...
You got enough juice to shoot anything! If I was I. That boat I’d lighten the setup a little to tighten pin gaps for when you have to judge yardage on a shot. But for sure a mechanical for a big hole with that much energy.
There are 3 indicators so all 3 pins are “floater” pins. If you’re only white tail hunting I get 20 set where you want it first as it doesn’t sound like you are chasing maximum distance on slider. If you were going for distance you’d want to set the lowest pin closest to the bubble then work...
Agreed here. I make the 5.5’ bed work with a bed cover. Don’t sleep in the bed anyways, but 3 guys on an elk trip is snug for all gear. I’ll get the crewmax with 6.5’ on my next one since they do that now. But now all v6 no more v8 and some models are hybrids (not applicable here).
No issues on mine have own 2017, 2018, and 2020 combined miles on all 3 is 360k. Only maintenance I’ve ever done was oil changes. Finally changed transmission fluid on this one at 180k miles. Not recommended but they’ve been solid for me.
When the arrow breaks penetration stops. There is nothing to continue pushing the broadhead as all energy is lost at that point. I’d look at arrow setup (component system etc) before chasing a smaller mech that doesn’t exist. I had a buddy show me an IW single bevel that deflected on a bull he...
