Very cool!  Those look like some serious heavy arrows.

Some were 850-900 the Hickory were 1000-1300 grains. Good thing on the Gemsbok because I centered a rib going in but still got through the goodies.

Congratulations and great video.  Does Sofala take many trad hunters?  The setups looked nice and close.

Whatever, Patrick!  You are a certified killer.  And I mean that as a compliment.

Mike, I'm interested in 2019.  That would give me plenty of time to save up.

I took all five animals with two different bows. They are my Deer Slayer models, sinew backed osage 60@26. One was backed with sinew from an elk that I killed with a longbow in New Mexico a couple of years ago.
