Bulldog 440 learning curve
With all this speed and power there is so much to learn. I am on third set of limbs, 40 shots, no splinters! New string 86 shots serving still looks good after polishing latchs! Old broadheads opened in flight, missed doe! New excalibur mechanicals did not open, wounded doe! Muzzy trocar hbx hybrids on the way! Any body have experience with them?what's everybody using on the business end of this beast?

Using US made large cut SWAT X MAG and VECTOR. Both quality mechanicals. I tested them both at almost 490 fps out of my Scorpyd and both do not deploy at launch

Re: Bulldog 440 learning curve
With all that power, I think you should have a serious talk with Normous about the SWAT heads. They are devastating to say the least.Potter wrote: ↑Sat Dec 07, 2019 2:58 pmWith all this speed and power there is so much to learn. I am on third set of limbs, 40 shots, no splinters!

Surprised to hear that they the Excal exp did not open. They are a great head too. But I have heard of them not opening once before on a doe local here, maybe 4 or 5 years ago.

Here is the exit channel left from the SWAT X MAG witnessed by another member from our forum. This is typical performance I have noted from the X MAG numerous times.

Re: Bulldog 440 learning curve
I hit a doe with the SWATXMag. Through both shoulder and the arrow went in the ground!
She expired in sight.
They will be on my arrows for January hog hunt. Can't wait to see what they will do!

A touch of frost has heightened your awareness and your heart steadily beats in anticipation. Your senses are suddenly alert to the movement on the forest floor and you realize that the moment of truth is at hand.

Re: Bulldog 440 learning curve
I am 99% sure swats will be on my arrows next year . But with my 330 I think I'll go with the Swat mini.

Re: Bulldog 440 learning curve
Shot the muzzy hybrid 5 times at 30 and 40 yes. Extremely accurate, same point of impact as field point s. They go through my target so I could tell they open ed. Noticed scope mounting rail was loose. Re glued, rotate string a twist.check new limbs,58 shots.string has 104 shots, everything looks good.if it stops raining I can hunt again. With this new bow I have begun to keep a log of number of shots on bow and limbs. Also hunts. Does anybody else do this? I'm hoping to get through next year season with 1 string .

Re: Bulldog 440 learning curve
I shoot swat x mags out of my bulldog 400. Most accurate broadheads I have tested. Rage hypos opened early. Could barely hit my target. Grim reapers also shot like crap. Only broadhead that shoot exactly like my field points are swat. Only broadheads I will shoot now. Swat a4 xmags that is
Re: Bulldog 440 learning curve
Will have to get some xmags for xmas, maybe some heavier arrows too.

Re: Bulldog 440 learning curve
I can't speak for the 440 but with my 405 not modified I shoot the Magnus Ser Razor 125 fixed and it fly very well out to 40yds. that's my range set up in the yard. so if you are looking for a fixed head to try give them a try and the also come with a lifetime guarantee . and the won't close when you shot.

Re: Bulldog 440 learning curve
I’m using the Swat A4-Mini, and find them to be well made, and very accurate from my Axe. Hope to get a shot this season still, but after muzzle loader season ends. Norman got me to take a serious look at these, and I think they will be perfect for me.

Re: Bulldog 440 learning curve
Broke serving on excalibur string today practicing. Got 120 shots out of it, is this about normal or should I polish latches again? New boo string on.are all the new bows this hard on servings? Liking my exocet 200 more each day, string would last years, never any problems. 75 shots on new limbs, no splinters!

Re: Bulldog 440 learning curve
I think the force and angle that the string is subjected to make it a serving chewer . I’m sure there are a few things that make it a bit better, but never as easy on serving as the old long limb models. Speed always comes at a cost!
