    Need help choosing a new Bowtech

    I may be a little late to the party but here's my 2 cents. I upgraded from my Bear Legion to the Bowtech Boss this year. The Bear was a great starter bow but I was ready to upgrade. I did a ton of research and shot a bunch of bows! I learned so much in this whole process. The Boss is a 36" axle...

    Lack of penetration

    I was using a toxic broadhead. I shot over a chrono and am getting 260fps. According to the ke calculator I should have enough ke for the heaviest of game. The toxics have a lot of cutting surface. So maybe at that distance it was just to much and didn't penetrate.

    Lack of penetration

    That is crazy! Sounds like had similar setups. I'm just beginning to think it was one those times everything went exactly wrong!

    Toxic Broadheads

    I started using them this year. They fly right with my field points. I liked the concept of them. Penetrated my target really we'll. I just posted a thread on lack of penetration in the bowhunting section. These are the heads I was using. Not sure if it was just a one off kinda deal. It probably...

    Lack of penetration

    Has anybody ever had an elk rib stop their arrow? I took a shot on a spike a couple nights ago at 60 yards. I shoot a 70lb bow with a 456 grain arrow. He was completely broadside. After the shot he trotted off and hearded up with about 30 other elk. My arrow wasn't sticking out like it should be...

    SHV 5-20x56mm

    ChrisAtl that's the price for the 4-14. Nightforce just came out with a 5-20 SHV. I can't wait to read a review on it! I think it going to be right up my alley.

    SHV 5-20x56mm

    I have been holding out hoping for another in SHV line as well Mudrunner. Glad I did now! Yes the elevation is 80 moa and 50 moa for windage. Like you said dmj, that's plenty for me. There's also 20 moa built into the moar reticle so that helps. I was just looking at the moa differences for...

    SHV 5-20x56mm

    I noticed over the weekend Nightforce is now offering another scope in the SHV line. Like the title says 5-20x56mm. Looks a great scope for the money. It has all the things I was wishing the 4-14 SHV had. For one a little more magnification for longer shots. Zero set comes standard. It wasn't...

    First bull elk bow kill

    Nice bull! How did the Toxics work? They look like a pretty mean broadhead. I've been looking at them quite a bit. It hard to find any info on how they perform on elk. How was the penetration? How far was the shot and where did you hit him? Do they fly well? Sorry for all the questions:) Just...

    Broadhead that flies strait?

    I tried Muzzy 100gr three blades and they were low and left. I had my bow tuned and it helped a little. I ended up switching to Wac'em exits. Its a four blade head. They fly right on with my field points out to 60 yards.

    Idaho draw is out (kind of)

    Put in for the Panhandle buck tag, but didn't draw. My wife drew either sex elk for unit three, so that will be nice!
