Many years ago, I read an article in "Traditional Bowhunter" magazine, about a fellow who used solid fiberglass fish arrows, for his African Cape Buffalo hunt....

I don't remember the gentleman's name, but if my old memory serves me correctly....  :dunno:
He tipped them with 190gr Ribteks. I think he got complete penetration, and even broke a rib!!!

Wasn't it Monty Browning that shot the fish arrows?

My kids don't have access to my hunting arrows, among other things that they don't need access too.

I have a few Hickory, Red Balau and Spruce that come in at 700 before stain, fletch, points etc.  So are closer to 900 when done.

Ha, 1400+ grains is sure getting up there.

My regular hunting/stumping arrows are Red Balau hardwood that come in at 880-900 grains, and the arrows I chased Water Buffalo with a few years ago were again Red Balau, but weighed 1100 grains.

I thought they were getting heavy.

Aparrently not so :biglaugh:

Best

Good hunting to you all.
May the wind be your friend, and may your arrows fly true,
Most of all, may the appreciation and the gratitude of what we do keep us humble......
