    MFJJ, I really appreciate the time you put in for this video. I learned a lot. It would be greatly appreciated if you could do the same thing for your hunting set up this season. Also I have a quick question for you. How much of a difference have you seen it make between left versus right helical?

    I went with Easton Sonic 6.0 with 3 Bohning Heat vanes to maximize speed and minimize the effects of wind. The Victory RIP XV were even lighter, but more expensive. In the end, I went with the less expensive option because it hurts less to miss at TAC. Will a TAC specific setup make a huge difference, IDK, but that flatter trajectory is a requirement for the longer shots.
    I like using hot melt because you can't really make a mistake and you can always redo it. With super glues, you better be quick because it will bond quickly and it's nearly impossible to get it back out again without damaging the arrow or the insert.
    I weighed everything to attempt to get matching arrows. Even the vanes would vary and I was grouping them by weight. Am I good enough to tell downrange, not even close, but it can only help.

    Thanks to content you put out, I made target arrows; RIP XV 390 gr TAW. 1.2 grains difference from heaviest to lightest. Weighed/ sorted each component. Shooting a G tape on my CBE sight at 75#. Was shooting an L tape for VAP TKO hunting arrows. "Laser beams" hitting 4" groups at 60 yd!

    Why superglue your bushings?
    I then assume you're going to super glue your points too... why not hot melt?

      I hot melt my bushings in. You will at one point get a bent pin nock and you will need to change it out. Much easier with hot melt

    Another awesome video!! I am curious if you have ever thought of selling “packages”? For instance putting everything you used in this video in a “MFJJ tac arrow package” or a Dan from Elk Shape tac arrow or Elk hunting arrow package? I would like to try this arrow setup and would have definitely purchase it in a package link from the video. I am purchasing them regardless, it would just make it a little easier. I’m putting a list together for other items I need to order and will be doing that soon. Anyway just a thought. Thanks again for the great videos and content.

    Hey Josh. Love the video. My friends and I watch all your stuff. Question. Do you try to cut your arrows as short as possible. I have a 30 inch draw length, 70 lb, VXR, Hamskee Epsilon. How short would you cut the arrow if clearance wasn’t an issue? Thanks again!

    I did a similar process with my hunting arrows this year, but with a couple of tweaks. My arrow setup included a separate insert and collar system, so I weighed the arrows, then the inserts, then the collars, then the points. I put the components into a fishing lure box that had 12 separate boxes to keep track of the "numbering" for each, then plugged them all into a spreadsheet on a computer so I could balance everything out as much as possible. It took a little time, but at the end I could grab arrow 4, insert 10, collar 3 and tip 9 (for example) and had everything end up within about .3 grains of each other. With using cheap field points, I was pretty happy with that, and I'm sure the arrows shoot better than I do.

  • @RMC2021
    @RMC2021 9 місяців тому

    I thought Victory marked the strongest part of the spine, not the weakest? I don’t quite understand why they would do it that way since the weakest part of the spine wouldn’t necessarily be 180° from the hardest part. It could be 90° or 32° from the hardest part. Can anyone explain this?

  • @quackaddict2750
    @quackaddict2750 4 місяці тому

    Thanks for the video. Those arrows came from the factory spine tested, but wouldn't the spine change once the arrow is cut to length? This would require you to find the spine again, correct?

  • @aaronhall765
    @aaronhall765 2 роки тому +2

    So you have found the static spine to be accurate for shooting? Static and dynamic can be different in a bow. I haven't tried victory arrows since there HV standard shafts. I wasn't impressed with durability.
    Thanks for showing your build.

    @BobBowers1967 2 роки тому +1

    Might have been a long video, but that's how long it takes to do the job right. I do the same thing and end up with arrows very close in weight. One thing I like to do as well is check all my shafts for spine consistency. I normally will get 3-4 dozen shafts, then run them through the RAM carbon spine tester and make sure I get 1-2 dozen that are exactly the same as each other. Then I move to what you did above. The only difference for me is I might sort by point weight and match them up, then glue the point in, then shoot the bareshaft through paper to verify weak plane, then mark that in case it is different than the spine alignment mark on the Victory shafts. Then I weigh my fletchings and batch them out per shaft and glue them up from there. So is it tedious? Absolutely, but putting together the absolute best shafts you can that you have 100% confidence in is key. When your arrow is off it's mark, if you have shafts like these then you know it was you. That feeling is priceless and worth the time it takes to make up super awesome arrows.

    What arrows would you suggest for someone who's just really getting into archery and not trying to break the bank but not scared to spend money on quality? Looking to hunt this year or next whitetail in Texas. Still new but pretty accurate out to 50-60 yards 5 inch groups at 60 with trash arrows basically. Not losing arrows anymore and wanting to build my own. My brother and I have loved our journey over the last couple of months and you and the other guys have been a huge help and inspiration. 27inch draw 62lb currently shooting a pse drive nxt

  • @thomasstanworth
    @thomasstanworth Рік тому

    Always interested to see what people build, but may I suggest that’s far too much vane and too much helical for a long range arrow. 2” long and 0.35” approx vane with slight offset and the groups will be much better at long range. Better still, drop the 5mm XVs and shoot a 4mm with higher GPI for a better balanced (for target) arrows.

    Josh. I realize these are target arrows but thought I would get a suggestion from you. I like Victory .166 arrows but cannot seem to build a light enough arrow. They come with 50 gr.. Inserts, I shoot 100 grain broadness and a 350 spine weight. My arrows are 27.5 inches with three TAC vanes. Most arrows are coming in just shy of 450 grains. I would love to find a combination that is 425 or less… any suggestions???

  • @jarred0301
    @jarred0301 Рік тому

    .1s of gr are far less of a consideration than wind, and how you shoot shot from shot. That's not to mention the fact your using a scale that is accurate to +- .1 gr. That .1 is truly only a reflection of its accuracy in a specific temp and humidity range, and covered from any air flow in the room. That's not mentioning it being perfectly level is a concern. All that is to say that with some straight forward math you're chasing less than a .1% off total weight. That will not be measurable in any meaningful way. Getting better at reading wind conditions and overall shooting ability is far more of a concern than chasing that weight. It is quite literally an utter waste of time. Honestly the thing you spend the least amount of time and concern on (fletching the arrow) is 10+ times the importance of chasing those couple .1s your not truly capable of measuring in any meaningful way. If that process makes you feel better go for it, but to say it makes a measurable difference is just not true.
    Do you measure and adjust nock tension? That would be further still more important. When you set the arrows on the scale are they set on in the same way across all arrows on the same spot in the scale? No, that effects weight readings.

  • @Vanhamj1
    @Vanhamj1 Рік тому

    so I have what may seem like a silly question, but if you're using a nock insert, and you break off a nock having it get hit by another arrow, is there still enough left to pull the nock out and re-nock the arrow? Would a nock pin insert accomplish the same thing and be easier to re-nock the arrow? Or is there not any difference?

    Hey Josh, just watched a vid with Dan, ranch fairy and iron will bill. They were taking about arrow weight and velocity down range at 60yds. The consensus was heavier arrow is better for kinetic energy and impact was does make sense. Bit do believe in lighter is good as well in certain applications. Would love to see a UA-cam vid by mfjj on his recommendation on arrow weight for elk hunting.

    You can tell me I need to glue the veins on, but how many strokes you use of the glue, at what angle and pressure you apply to the vein as you sintall it is important information i can get by watching.

      Just giving you my experience on the subject. I'm 47 and have been shooting a bow since I was about six years old and bow hunted since I was about 14. I went down the rabbit hole with .166 and "adult arrows" weighing from 600 to 754 grains. I'm 30.5 draw at 70 lb. Practicing at known distances on stationary targets had me very confident. Ended up mis-judging my target Buck by a couple yards and gave him a shave. Absolutely no need for the extra arrow Mass especially at our DL and poundage on whitetail. My opinion is try to be between 425 and 525 grains and no more than 150 total up front. Also found out that micro diameter was not stabilizing nearly as well as 204 or 244 arrows even at extra-heavy spine. I'm back to 244 and 472 grain arrow.

    MFJJ how do you keep the insert from being pushed out, even a little, if you have already glued in the bushing? Wont the pressure inside the shaft push back against the insert? I always remove my nocks when putting in inserts for this reason. As meticulous as your arrow build is I cant see you making that mistake.
