    Were you surprised by the results?!? We kind of were, Dan was mobbing the 28 pretty hard for the last few weeks

      Elk Shape they are both great shooting bows but at 5’6 the 28 is perfect for me and for whitetail in Texas is a no brainer

      Chris Bee does a similar test and the 28 came out on top. So who really knows. How I would choose between the 2 is if I was a 29 inch or longer draw I would go with the 31.5

    What a gorgeous range. Here in AZ most of our ranges are brown and dirt and rocks. Your range is nicer than most places we actually hunt. Keep up the great work and excellent videos. I really appreciate your content.

    I’m having a hard time with a 28 or a 31 ,, I have one on order. I couldn’t make up my mind , told the guy at the bow shop to order one , and after watching this I’m leaning to a 31 .. might and up with two .. good video ,, 👍👍

  • @RobertWilliams82-22
    @RobertWilliams82-22 4 роки тому +1

    This actually says a lot because the second shot on each target, you always had a spot to aim off of.... my focus was bad off yesterday, shot horrible at a tournament but still placed, was focus more on my pins then the target and didn’t even think about my fallow through or back elbow... also the sweaty palms messed my grip up pretty good.... I was just bad all together

  • @sammyhughes6769
    @sammyhughes6769 4 роки тому

    I do the same thing with my new bow versus my old bow. I'll just leave the range finder in the truck so I can practice guessing the right yardage. Makes me feel more confident in the heat of the moment if I don't have time to range the animal. Like your channel and enjoy watching you and your buddies slinging arrows. I just had shoulder surgery yesterday and now I'm just hoping my rehab goes good so I don't miss this season of hunting. Just keep the videos coming cuz I don't have much else to do right now and it sucks.

    Quick question. You might have already discussed this in a previous video and I missed it. Why do you not have lighted nocks on the 28" VXR and you do have lighted nocks on the 31.5"? Was it because of the hunt in Idaho doesn't allow lighted nocks? Enjoy the videos and good luck and stay safe.

  • @archeryonly5629
    @archeryonly5629 4 роки тому +1

    I have a 30 in draw so i like a longer bow , the string angle makes it hard to be consistent for me, i prefer 33 ata

  • @mmcguire5687
    @mmcguire5687 3 роки тому

    Ok, a tad late to the game but here goes. Due to a shoulder injury I had to turn my 65 lb VXR down a half turn. It’s now in the 58+ lb range. Would the efficiency change if I left the 65 lb mod (turned down) over putting in a 60 lb mod maxed out?

  • @ryleeiacolucci3429
    @ryleeiacolucci3429 4 роки тому +1

    Interesting experiment. I think it's almost impossible to control for all variables in order to get a perfect comparison in this use case. The only way to minimize the impact of variance in wind, endurance, temperature, and etc, is to generate a large enough sample of shots and then analyze the data. Doing so I think you'd find some some intuitive, yet unique, patterns in the bows performance that would suggest the best uses for them.
    Speaking from a data scientist's perspective, I think it'd be interesting to analyze your accuracy measurements with 500 arrows per bow. Just throwing it out there in case there's any interest.

    • @ElkShape
      @ElkShape  4 роки тому

      Agreed a larger sample would provide a better conclusion.. unfortunately there's that whole time thing

    When you talked about bear vitals good tips! I just shot my 1st bear a few weeks back and I hit 1/2 inch behind the scapula, hit the heart, and one lung. I think my shot was good and she only went 23 yards. Is it more of a situationally thing, or did I get lucky because of the angle I shot from?

    Any reason why you run 25/40/50? Curious what your speed and such is? I run a sliding 3 pin and have 20/30/40 but going to swap to 30/40/50 this year and learn just the difference for 20 & +/- 5.

    Why is it nobody ever has had an issue with an arrow “drifting” from a tree stand or shot from elevation until this 3rd axis stuff came out 🤔

    • @ElkShape
      @ElkShape  4 роки тому +1

      Because tree stand shots are typically 30 yards max.. Most 3rd axis stuff won't show up until you're shooting further than that, and at steeper angles.. It's certainly not fake news - TC
