Two fantastic trophies with traditional archery gear

Nico said that this gentleman made his own custom bow and arrows. The draw weight was 80lbs., and the total arrow weight was just under 900 grains including a 200 grain, solid, 2-blade broadhead.

The arrows are Easton Full Metal Jacket Dangerous Game arrows. I have some of those same shafts and with fletches that look almost the same. Mine weigh in at 844 grains with a 150 grain BH and nocturnal nocks, so those are probably very similar to mine and likely within an inch of the overall length. His do not have the nocturnal nocks. My guess would be 250 spine on the arows and 31" long.
 
Wow, impressive achievement! Congrats to the hunter, and PH for pulling this off.

Good Morning x84958
I have read your post about Jamy Traut and your hunt in Caprivi. I am planning such a hunt for 2026, Oct with Jamy.
Just a question , because I will combine Caprivi and Panorama for PG, is the daily rate the same the week long, I mean the one for Caprivi or when in Panorama it will be a PG rate ?
thank you and congrats for your story.
Best regards
Philippe from France
