Re: 2219 lighted nocks

The shot was sideways extreme down got both lungs but no exit very little blood. Fletching was barely hanging out on the hit side the (working lighted nock) woulda definately aided in a faster recovery sorry made it sound like arrow passed thru and was in dirt

Re: Target for Mechanical Broadheads

Spitfire makes practice (blades) there inexpensive and truely fly the same as a real one i use them all the time. You just put them in instead of real blades. Because of the angle of spitfire offset blade there not foam target friendly the real blades will be toast. For the price you pay for the spi...

Re: Broadhead for Kodiak Bear

The boltcutter would be at the top of my list heavy tough n accurare. I use spitfires for deer and love em to death . But i wouldnt use em for bear. I know the boltcutter is shy on cutting dia. But you need penitration maby look at 175 slick tricks or montecs all good stuff.

Re: outdoor life micro test

They did not mention arrow type. I readcrossbow revolution tests on vacation they get 324fps 3.o8 trigger that at least seams realistic again no one mentions arrow type .i think these magazines just wing this stuff anyway just to get it done not fair

The nikon works great for my 330 i got heavy arrows draggin the velocity down to that level its perfect....i agree with others t...

Re: Arrows for Micro 335

I put weighted inserts up front to 53 gr and 125 grain spitfires reach a total of 173 grain close enough. Both broadheads same inpact . I love alluminum arrows never saw the need for ca...
