Mako X Bow Review Part 2
This is a part 2 video review where I go into the field and put a couple arrows through my newly setup Mako X from Xpedition Archery. I highly recommend this bow for western hunting because it's the perfect balance of a smooth draw cycle, speed, and forgiveness. Check them out at www.XpeditionArchery.com

Transition Wild - Target Practice Shooting Heavy Grain Arrows
Переглядів 3,6 тис.7 років тому
For the 2017 season, I've elected to go with heavier arrows in an effort to improve arrow penetration on larger game such as elk. This year my total arrow weight (including a 125-grain head) is 560 grains per arrow while last year I was only shooting approximately 420 grains. After my initial shots this past weekend, I think they are going to do the trick. I apologize for some parts of bad audi...

    You can change the opacity of those areas pretty easily if you want. Right-click the master folder "Elk migration corridors" for instance. Go to "get info" then "style, colors". From there you can select to have all the descendant folders take the same format, and you can make the layers more transparent.

    • @Bowfishinfreak1
      @Bowfishinfreak1 5 років тому

      We will have to agree to disagree. I feel people gotta get off the speed and kinetic bandwagon and really look at what matters and that's forward weight and momentum. I run a 650 grain total weight at 19% foc with a monolithic single bevel broadhead for whitetail and pigs. And get 100% pass throughs no matter what bones it hits. Thanks for taking the time to comment back.!!!!

    • @yukoncornelius3550
      @yukoncornelius3550 4 роки тому

      @@Bowfishinfreak1 LOL at your argument that 560 grain is a "light hunting arrow." Sounds like you are all hung up on the heavy arrow, extreme foc bandwagon. Momentum is great and a quiet bow is even better but to completely ignore trajectory as it relates to your possible shot opportunities is short-sighted. Every hunter is going to have a different idea of what makes their perfect arrow, based on how they are going to use it. The variables that influence that decision should run much deeper than hoping you can break bone if you make a bad shot. With all this being said, I think 600 grains is great at short distances. Beyond 30-40 yards, heavy arrows start to nose dive and pin gap really starts to stretch out. Accurate estimation of shot distances is more critical with heavy arrows, as is the estimation of trajectory if you have to squeeze one through a small shot window. I'm not arguing against heavy arrows, just pointing out that there are disadvantages that go along with the obvious advantages.

    I own one and it sucks(very unreliable and non functional) the legs collapse most of the time when supporting a rifle on them.

      That folder is for Iowa. Unfortunately, there is not a good overlay for Colorado public land outlines, at least from what I've found. You can get the national forest areas overlay by going to the "More" Folder and then checking the "Parks/Recreation" Box. That will give you the national forest overlay but not BLM. I use OnXmaps to determine the public land areas and cross back and forth between Google Earth and OnXmaps. Thanks for watching, Gene!

      Hi Taylor - Sounds like you are gearing up for a great hunt in the near future! The best tool hands down is onXmaps. Download the APP and you can use it as your GPS and marking locations, trails, etc. It also shows land ownership so you know where the public land boundaries are. It's $35 a year per state but well worth it in my opinion. You can usually find discount codes to purchase it by checking out Randy Newberg's website. Good luck this Fall!

I've backpack and horse packed most of my hunts and now I'm seeing tons of people in areas I never thought they'd be. Anyhow, good job and I wish you luck this year in the draws.
