  • Had a rash of trolls bludgeoning the old RF with "poor shot placement" accusations. Well, here's the facts and they are wrong.

    Listen to the Dudley podcast that you were featured in. It’s crazy how he tried to belittle you in just the fact you “haven’t taken any archery lessons” or know “proper form” and with that dismissed anything you had to say about arrow weight. I currently am running 510 grain arrows and that added 125 grains make a world of a difference. Thank you!

    Hello Troy. This is for the viewers: I started to kill more and put more deer down in fewer yards with this man's advice and research. I literally smash and pass through!!! Keep it up Troy.

    Just shot my first deer with a bow since 2012. Was shooting 605 grains with a Magnus Black Hornet that was stropped to scary sharp (have a scar on my finger to corroborate). Took a 16 yard broadside shot, somehow shot directly between ribs on both sides into both lungs. I believe just about any set up would have killed the deer efficiently, but am very happy that I had a set up that would have performed very well even if it hadn't been a perfect shot. I do agree with a few of the things that Dudley and others preach, practice is just as important as an adult arrow, but why not do both? Perfect arrow flight, razor sharp broadheads, and a ton of practice just takes out as many of the variables as possible and gives me the best chance of success.

  • @davidbright1489

    RF I SERIOUSLY think you need to put a disclaimer right up front in every video about these being a plan B arrow. As you stated a less efficient/lighter arrow can and will kill but “what if”. Murphy is a SOB and likes to ruin your day…. I killed 2 deer with a .22 hornet as a kid. Knowing better now, I use a real bullet lol. Same goes for arrows, I’d rather OVER KILL the deer, the rock behind it and the dirt vs just barely getting by. As always keep up the good work and let the haters hate.

  • @stevesweaney8797

    Two years ago I switched to this system and it has not failed me. 4 deer harvested using this system and I have watched all but one go down within sight. Keep teaching, haters are gonna hate.

  • @Dankbudzz

    This is why we shoot adult arrows 😂

  • @Glaciershark

    I don’t think the Fairy is getting through to the general hunting public

    I don’t know who can argue with this man there’s a reason all them bones are there protecting the vital organs

    Troy, Deer & Deer Hunting put one of these out with 3 placements. The deer was quartered to slightly and the front leg was way back. One of the "preferred" shot locations promoted by D&DH was back of the liver/stomach! One was liver/back lungs. The other was okay, middle lung. I was shocked. No wonder the dog tracking facebook pages are going wild. People wanting to aim "behind the shoulder" no matter what is a major problem. Scanning the comments on the FB posts sharing the same photo was disappointing. Very few saw the obvious error.

  • @thebaitdrop

    I’ve started to get back into archery after taking a 30 year break. Ran across your channel and I was doing it all wrong lol. 400 grain arrows at most, including the 85 grain g5. Fast forward to 2024 706 grain Sirius Apollos. Haven’t shot anything yet but it will be a pig 🐗. Stay true!

  • @jimbrisco7374

    I am not a world class archer, nor will I ever be. My effective range is 25 and under. I also am getting older, not built like Arnold, so my draw weight is only 53 lbs nowadays.

    Sent a 690 grain arrow topped with a single bevel straight through a bucks front shoulder last weekend. Buried in the ground towards the fletching. He expired in seconds. Couldn’t have done it if you didn’t teach me this stuff. Thanks Troy!

  • @jakemeyers558

    I've learned a lot from Dudley and I've learned a lot from Troy. Both men have shared information that has helped make me a more effective hunter. I hope both continue to share their points of view. I shoot single bevel broadheads and no weaker than a 300 spine arrow because of Troy. I shoot my bow twice a day and emulate what John teaches for accuracy. I have my "middle ground" arrow setup... I make adjustments based off what animal I'm pursuing. My success rate on recovering hogs in FL Swamps where blood tracking can be impossible went up dramatically thanks to Troys advice.. I moved my shot placement forward and used better broad heads...It worked for me. Thanks Troy!

  • @brockpeck7073

    Troy your the best! No other channel is close to yours. Us normal bowhunters love it.

  • @simonsmith9363

    Troy, thank you for taking on the mechanical broadhead industry and pointing out their frailties. You're fighting against big money interests, companies who are making a fortune out of bow hunters with their slick marketing and big name front-men and I admire you telling truth to power. Keep up the good work!

  • @boomerrangerron

    Nice job Troy! It's just sad that so many people on social media feel like they should criticize your work!

  • @MikeyWoomer

    I love that illustration from deer hunting. I've been trying to tell more and more people to aim more forward. So many times I've been hunting and killed deer that I thought was more broadside and when I get to the deer see it was quartering way more. It's very simple.. aim for the opposite shoulder where you want it to come out. Great video

    Your channel is so helpful. Thank you for taking so much time to edit/produce videos for us dummies!

  • @longfalllureoutdoors7321

    Started aiming farther forward thanks to you, broke my back a few years ago so picked up a crossbow and am slinging around 600-650 grain bolts, been using the sevr robusto 2.0 and have had great luck, broke the bone at the base of the scapula and complete pass thru last year on a 1/4ed too shot... thanks Troy, your the man!

  • @JoMammaSmurf

    I have found that people who can't accept the high FOC heavy arrow concept are those who just don't want to start the tuning process over. It can be daunting but holy shit. The results are unbelievable. It's worth the many hours of tuning and research.
