Cold Shot #8

[cnelk]

OK guys
This is the dealio this time.

Whatever your furthest pin is on your bow, take that shot - COLD - with a broadhead

As usual, pics are great! And vids are Awesome!

[JJ Overkill]

Will do tomorrow

[pointysticks]

You're gonna owe me an arrow!

[WapitiTalk1]

Yep, the bar has just been raised. I'll launch a Shuttle T at 60 yards tomorrow if I get home early enough.

[Triplebhunters]

Cnelk. Your a week early on that one. I have apt at bow doc. Next mon new strings and cables. Then I was going to tweek broadheads. I will do it tonight.

[elkmtngear]

What if I don't have pins????

I might be able to get 60 max on my target

[cnelk]

What if I don't have pins????

Ah... Im busted!
I was going to shoot my recurve on this shot!

Very clever...you sit back and laugh while we bust a bunch of arrows to smithereens!

OK, 60 yds. with a HellRazor. Good thing I tuned my broadheads over the weekend, I might just hit the target.

I think I might actually have to go to the range for this one.

[Buglemaster]

well, the good thing is I hit my target at 60, which is my bottom pin. 5" left of center. That was probably human error. Arrow was an axis 400 with a 100gr slick trick.I tried a second shot with an axis 340 & 100 grn snuffer ss. That extra weight took it down 10" but was inline with the dot.I would try this shot today on an animal only if I already had an arrow in it.Several years ago, before shoulder issues & aging eyes, I killed bucks 5 consecutive years at 60.Looking back, I feel I was pretty stupid & incredibly lucky.All an animal has to do in that split second you touch the trigger is to take a step for a little greener grass & you "have a problem Houston" I'm not raggin on the guys who will take it, but say a prayer that your target holds still .

[Triplebhunters]

125 buzz cut. 60 yards. Hopefully we stay with field points or choice for one more week. Still darn fun!!!

[treestanding]

Need to do some work on that 60 yd. pin.

I couldn't get 60...here's a video from 55 yds.

***warning...there is audible flatulence in this video!***

I had a humungous bowl of beans before I went out to shoot. I was going to edit it out...but I thought if you can't fart in Doc's office...then where?

[Buglemaster]

Don't care who ya are, that's a classic snort... Eh... Shot Jeff..LOL

[WapitiTalk1]

***warning...there is audible flatulence in this video!***

I didn't hear a thing , LOL. Dang nice shot with fingers. Uploading my VID now.

[WapitiTalk1]

Here's my attempt. Haven't been shooting BHs out this far up until a few days ago. Shooting new arrows and a new sight. Can't compete with the talking frog elkmtgear stepped on though....classic

[cnelk]

I smell popcorn....

Great Shot RJ!

[Triplebhunters]

Elkmtngear. First broadhead shot out of that bow. Nice. Shooter did his job and the tuner did a nice job.

Thanks Dave. I have those blades twisted so they are close to vertical when nocked. That arrow flew beautifully, I was very happy. C'mon elk Season!!

[POk3s]

I might be screwed. I have my 70 CLOSE to sited in but my farthest pin is 80. I might grab one of my arrows that isn't one of my best and see how it goes!

Now that would be a cool video!

[pointysticks]

Ill do this Saturday. Looking forward to it actually. I think my 80 target is an elk drawing. Hope I hit something. Not the trees. Field tip only for me on the range target.

Good shooting

Getting pumped up for #9

Getting pumped up for #9

You're up...Call it...

[Triplebhunters]

Okay you want to start new topic? 20 yards, on yours knees, sitting, shooters choice, holding min 12 seconds, at a obstructed target.

[cnelk]

Lets define an "obstructed target'

[Triplebhunters]

Okay your calling, bull sneaking in your at full draw three more steps and he is in the open. But he stops in the brush only a window to shoot thru.

I can do this no problem on my 3D lane.

Others will have to jimmy rig some type of "window" to shoot through.

[Triplebhunters]

Yes, Jeff you do have the coolest target range.

[pointysticks]

My wife was amazed. Might have hurt my argument that i need a new bow. 80 yards. 2" high! Unreal!

[WapitiTalk1]

Holy smokes Cliff.. Now that's a nice shot!

[Triplebhunters]

Wow. Wife is going to have to understand your wants as well as your needs. Awesome range as well.

[pointysticks]

The shot felt like a Hail Mary. Haha.

No, I'll get another bow. Just can't use the "I can't shoot this bow well" excuse. Haha. Fun cold shot!

Wife got the shot on iPhone video.

[ctdad]

My needs list ended a long time ago. This hobby is about wants at this time and I've got expensive tastes and an urge to replace stuff often.

[WindedBowhunter]

80yds on my western hunting bow

Not going to win any tournaments...





I shoot G5 Montecs with that setup. I couldn't shoot broadheads that far yesterday as there were too much activity going on at the range.

[chrisschwarz]

Try this.......not sure if I am uploading correctly.


60 yards, slick trick 100 gr standard.....last time I shot was Tuesday last week. About about 4 inches right.....had a good breeze going so that might have been the drift.

i tried to slo-mo your video. you fletched your arrows with 4 vanes? straight or offset? that is a heck of a shot.

if you have four vanes..did it slow your arrow down alot?

[WapitiTalk1]

Pointysticks (Cliff),

Four fletch blazers, right offset. I've shot three fletch arrows before in my Alpine and I don't think there's a significant drop in the point of impact (none that I can remember) so I'm assuming that I'm not losing much speed. I think my bow is set right around 67 lbs.

thanks. i asked my arrow guy to do this, except he talked me out of it..saying i would lose speed.

i think the added stability trumps the tiny bit of speed loss. nicely done. i might DIY this for experimental reasons. make a bow easy to tune for sure!

[WindedBowhunter]

chrisschwarz Nice shot!
