I am hunting Eland this September. I am using a Tenpoint Stealth NXT shooting a 500 gr arrow at 385 FPS. The KE of this setup is approx. 165 ft lbs at zero yds and 155 ft lbs at 30 yds.
My choice of broadhead is a Slick Trick Crossbow 150 gr.
What have you used?
 
450 grain arrow # 63 Bowtech Assasin at 270 fps and Magnus Stinger 4 blade. Complete penetration at 20 yards.

Terrific! I guess my setup will be OK.

Had an excellent classifieds transaction with JoninCO. A truly honest and standup member. I wouldn't hesitate at all to deal with him again. Thanks, J!

Hi Lance, Hope you well. I collect Mauser rifles and they are very much part of my cultural history in Africa. Would you consider selling the rifle now a year on ? I'd like to place it in my collection of Mauser rifles. Many thx

I saw where you hunted elephant with backcountry safaris in Zimbabwe.
Was looking to book an elephant hunt and wanted to know how your hunt went
and if you would recommend them.

Thanks
Mike
hi, do you know about lions hunters, leopard hunters, and crocodiles hunters of years 1930s-1950s
