Let the Arrow Games Begin...new addition-Traditional Only Barebow
« on: April 02, 2019, 10:20:21 AM »
Thanks to Gary at D&M for sending me this collection to play with.....

 I will be spending some time  with them for the next few weeks....

 They will then be shipped to Tom Phillips where they will be available to all bear quest attendees  To evaluate during their downtime in camp.

I may also be acquiring another company to be evaluated here also.

 I will post more later....

Very impressed with this arrow....absolutely beautiful to boot.

They showed weak for me out of my 60# Moab.....but very consistent...

The photo below reveals both shots went 6 inches right at 15 yards and the hole underneath was the 1st shot....bow tip shows hole I was aiming at.



Other shots at distance, not related to placement, reinforced the PERFECT arrow flight I suspected during placement shots....

Just need to stiffen them up a bit.

These arrows showed weak also, but only 3 inches right....arrow flight was good, just a little 'winding down' in the target.  I sensed good arrow flight, but not the same as the Grizz.

 Now please be aware these are just my findings out of my bow with my set up.... And has no bearing on individual arrows or arrow companies per say.

These are flat black n skinny...skinnier than any arrow I ever shot.

Again....bow tip pointing to hole I was aiming at......1st shot hole is directly above....

These  Arrows have a very slick finish and they are deathly quiet on the draw against the strike plate and rest.....

 I am going to assume that  Arrow flight was great as I cannot see these very well with this Fletch colouration.....

They seem to be spined perfect for my set up and they pegged the target dead still like the grizzlies.

 Opted for a  fresh target... I was aiming at the circle I scratched out of the crusty old latex target.....1st shot....



Yes...believe it or not...2nd shot.....

Again...plain Jane skinny skinnies....not use to these....kinda strange to me....

Shot good, looks to be on spine for me....arrow flight was good,   but like the other skinny, a little wind down....maybe that's inherent with these small diameter shafts....

Again, scratched circle was aiming point....

Bow tip pointing to 1st shot...



Gotta LOVE those two holes by the Centershots.

Thanks for the church group returning Blacky last week after I donated it to them new over 2 years ago for a shoot....didn't think I was even suppose to get it back.....someone shot some 2 blades at her  :biglaugh:

This was not a durability test....I will find that out on my own once I actually own a dozen of what ever I buy.  I'm going to be looking into the Centershots for sure, and see if I can't get these Grizzlies to come around.  Not sure I can get past these skinnie minnies. ...just a mind thing I guess....plus I like a little more arrow wrap surface....especially since I use reflective a lot.

I will continue to play with these till it's time to pass them on......

Couple questions Terry.  When you say "wind down" what do you mean?  That the tail of the arrow is down wind?  Any thoughts as to why the stiffest arrows are showing weak? 

Thanks for the information.

Hermon....winding down...i.e. winding clockwise in the target after impact....

Yes...showing weak cause there are metal footings on them....I'll get some pics. Sorry, I should have covered that!!!

I think that you will like the centershots. Very durable arrows and more affordable as well... at least through us.

They have become our number 1 selling shaft/arrow.

Don't mean to be dense, just comes naturally I guess, but still not getting the picture.  You say it flies good to the target, then winds clockwise after impact?  Any way you could explain it differently to a dummy like me?  Or a video?

How does the dark timber line hold up against the rest ?
They could be an answer to us long draw types.

So sorry for the delay in getting pictures up of those metal footings....

 Kinda funny how Jim showed up... as I'm gonna be shooting these arrows through his bow next week.  54# Thunderchild.

Hermon....I'll try later.
