Re: OT: Flint Knapping Art

Google a fellow by name of Woody Blackwell. I hunted with him a few times. The man makes his living knapping and he’s one of the worlds finest if not the best. It’s unbelievable what he can make. Guys in camp took a number of pigs with heads he made.

Re: Thinking about buying a smoker

Don,
I will second the Masterbuilt smokers. My 40” electric has been serving me very well for 5-6 yrs now. Does a great job. Wood wise I prefer hickory but apple is close second.

Re: Laser ranging bow sights

I have the Burris Oracle on my 400 Assassin. Great unit, guaranteed for life by Burris. I spoke to one person that had both the Oracle and the Garmin. He said buy the Oracle for sure - better unit. He said the warranty was much better with Oracle and that the Garmin unit was too technical- with a lo...

Re: My Micro lags behind my Matrix a lot

You want penetration, get yourself a 400 BD and use 700 grain arrows. I have 2 x 380’s love them but the the 400 BD will put that heavy arrow through most critters on earth. I put an arrow clean through both shoulders of Bull moose this year at 30 yrds. Go big or go home😎👌

Re: Arrow Lethality - Great Info Here

I’ve met Ed and spent fair amount of time discussing his work with him. He knows his stuff and I doubt there is anyone on earth that has done as much field testing and documentation in the archery field. He is a big fan of heavy foc and big broadheads. I have been using 700gr shaft/head in my 400 Bu...

Re: What arrows (Heavy) to get for BD 440?

I’m shooting 700gr arrows out of my 400BD and they fly great. Using a 2219 with a carbon express 4000 shat inside it. The CE 4000 has a 100gr brass insert as well, 100gr G5 Striker to top it off.

Re: TRYING HEAVIER BOLTS

I use a 2219 aluminum shaft with a Carbon Express 4000 carbon shaft glued inside the 2219. A 100 gun brass insert up front and 100 gr G5 striker gets me 700gr total. Takes a lot of noise away and hits like sledgehammer
