I watched a video 3D Archery with Greg Richards useing/shooting one of those driveway markers he made up. It was funny but they did shoot down range.

Many years ago, I read an article in "Traditional Bowhunter" magazine, about a fellow who used solid fiberglass fish arrows, for his African Cape Buffalo hunt....

I don't remember the gentleman's name, but if my old memory serves me correctly....  :dunno:
He tipped them with 190gr Ribteks. I think he got complete penetration, and even broke a rib!!!

Wasn't it Monty Browning that shot the fish arrows?

My kids don't have access to my hunting arrows, among other things that they don't need access too.

I have a few Hickory, Red Balau and Spruce that come in at 700 before stain, fletch, points etc.  So are closer to 900 when done.

Ha, 1400+ grains is sure getting up there.

My regular hunting/stumping arrows are Red Balau hardwood that come in at 880-900 grains, and the arrows I chased Water Buffalo with a few years ago were again Red Balau, but weighed 1100 grains.

I thought they were getting heavy.

Aparrently not so :biglaugh:

Best
