Victory RIP TKO vs Black Eagle Rampage questions

[5MilesBack]

I have a feeling most of us overrate our ability in relationship to the quality of the equipment.

The thing is.......once the arrows are all nock tuned, the bow is tuned, and all those arrows are hitting behind my pins........then there are no excuses.........it is all 100% on me. And that's the way I want it and expect it. That's why I go through such lengths to search for the best and test everything I use. I demand the best, but I'm also frugal. If Walmart had cheap arrows that worked for me, I'd have no problem using them.

I mean, the guy shot a 147/150 round at 50 meters with $4 arrows. Big Cat and Angus Moss dropped more points in the finals at the AAE Arizona Cup last weekend (super windy though). He also demonstrated (in another video) shooting a Vegas 300 with an Infinite Edge.

I'm all for decent arrows but I bet Samuel could shoot a 150 50 meter set with RIP TKOs and BE Rampages without even nock tuning.

Probably......but I don't even know what a "150 50 meter set" means. All I know is that shooting higher poundage with an almost 33" draw will show a lot of flaws with arrows and equipment very quickly. Throw on fixed blade BH's and problems show up even quicker with sub par arrows. The rampages I had were decent, just not very durable. I haven't had enough time with the Victory's to make a full determination on them yet. But by hunting season I should have a pretty good idea. Some arrows don't make it a week with me.

It's just what a head to head round in outdoor archery is at 50 meters. 150 is 15 arrows all tens.

There's only a few archers on earth that can shoot that good, consistently, and even less that can do it in a high-stress, head to head competition.

I agree with you that I wouldn't shoot Rampages because of their fragility. I almost bought some South Shore Boomslang shafts because Jerry indexes them for you, uses ethics inserts, and they're not ridiculously expensive but they're relabeled Rampages.

I have had good luck with Victory, in general.

If anyone is looking for some RIP TKO, I have 11 of the 300 spine V3 with 75 grain brass insert I will no longer need.

No. There are some on ebay though. I just ordered a couple dozen off there and got them in 3 days.
