Hi!
Since it`s of season for many of us, I`m wondering about what arrows and broad-heads you are going to use this season?

My plan is to use Easton FMJ 340 and Gold Tip Ultralight 300 with 100 grains adapters, cut to just beyond 31"
3 X 5" or 4" feathers.

Broadheads:
Four BH`s is on the list:

From left Centaur big game head single bevel 265 grains, Grizzly el grande 300 grains single bevel, Centaur battle axe 295 grains and the woodsman 250 grains.

 

It all depends on which one I`ll manage to get sharpest.


Oh I`ll be using one of three bows:
(or all of them if I get the chance for multiple hunts)

DAS hunter with hex V limbs [email protected]

Black Douglas triple carbon super swift riser with hex V [email protected]

Or a FireFly [email protected]

How about you? What is you going to use?   :campfire:       :coffee:

I have finally tried carbon arrows after being a die-hard wood arrow fan for a long time. Well, I am impressed by the carbons, so I am giving them a try this season. I'll stick with my Snuffers and Woodsman broadheads.

I also made up a batch of new woodies, just in case.

I'll use either:
1. Beeman 27.5 inch MFX Classic 600's with 75g insert, 2-blade Magnus broad head, and 3, 4" feathers. 424 grains.

2. Easton 1916 Legacy modified to accept uni-nock system. 27.5", with standard insert, 2-blade magnus broadhead, 3, 4" feathers. weights 416 grains

I am also undecided for sure about the bow. Right now the priority is: Bear Supreme TD A Riser @ 47# at my 26" draw.  Could be Pittsley Predator Annivesary same draw length. Or could be a Widow PSAIII at 58" if the weight reduced limbs I should receive at week's end are comfortable.

I meant the Predator is same draw weight -- of course I would be using the same draw length. Sorry
