Archery Elk Hunting * Bow Setup *

[@theamputeehunter2074]

Have you thought of using a single bevel broadhead ? That also might help you with your elk and deer set up

[@Cryton1]

VPA single bevel 200gr is a killer

[@harlanpooley2907]

I prefer the Iron Will single bevel with the cutter blade.

[@jonbrown9490]

A single bevel would be a good idea, or something like the Magnus stinger buzzcut 2 blade. With that kind of penetration a 2 blade ( SB or standard) with a higher length to width ratio would be better. If that's what she's getting on a whitetail @ 40 then with no bone impact, then she's going to need some help for elk. That or she will need to stalk within 15 yards.

[@OutdoorsAllie]

I'll have to check out a few options. I shot a NAP Hellrazor last year.

Another great video, Allie! Your specs are perfect for me; I shoot a Mathews Traverse, which is a 33" A-to-A, 28-1/2" DL, set to 52 lbs because I'm trying to let my shoulder heal. My daughter, who is a physical therapist, said I need to do more in the way of workouts including upper body weight work to strengthen my shoulders, as you mentioned. BTW...Glad to hear you and Nick got married; he seems like a great guy. Must have been a very intimate wedding considering the state of the world at the time. Congrats!

I have that exact same bow (only left handed). Excellent choice. I took the factory grip off and replaced it with a wrap. I find that the bow is likely to move less in my hand that way. Congrats on your getting married and you getting that buck. Great video.

[@OutdoorsAllie]

Interesting idea. Thanks for the feedback Craig!

[@rogerramjet7567]

Wishing happiness for you. I I am bow tec. Sixty five pounds. Used to be seventy five. I have taken thirty five elk. Bow rifle and muzzle. For me, getting close, thirty or less, is key. Accurate shot placement with your set up will get it done. Best of luck to you.

Love watching you in your quest. It’s wonderful that you replied. I am probably going to Arizona next. Either bow or muzzle. Not this fall but in 22. If I draw that is. You should get started applying. Your chances of taking a 340 plus bull there are good. Good luck!!!

I also shoot the pse evo nxt in the 31. I harvested a black bear pulling 45lbs a few weeks ago with a clean pass through, but I wanted to bump up to 50 for the PA archery season. So I also do the low elbow draw now that I increased the weight. Thanks for sharing this!

[@OutdoorsAllie]

Me too!

[@lsoutdoors2354]

Sweet set up I love longer bow to I shoot no sites and release so longer bows better for that!!!

[@amorestperpe]

Don't really need much draw weight, 45 is ethical for an elk, 35 for a deer. It's just nice to have a flatter, faster moving arrow especially over distance. I forget what I pull back, I think it's like 82. And it looks like it's got about a ~15 ft drop at 60-70yrds. Much further than I plan on shooting.

[@BOOMER-rs5qn]

There are a number of states requiring a minimum of 40lbs to be legal for deer hunting. Make sure to check the regulations those fines aint cheap lol

[@caseyberning7789]

I am expecting to see a video in the future of you cooking your elk that you’ve harvested. Don’t let me down! Lol! No seriously, enjoy the hunt and I do hope you bag a MONSTER bull!

[@OutdoorsAllie]

I sure hope so!!

[@bobdibb7622]

Tight spot quiver , especially nice out west. Arrows don’t pop out . Little spendy but feel like it’s worth it . And you will get pass throughs with that set up. My wife has gotten many with roughly same set up. Good luck !

[@doublej963]

I’m with you on the single pin, I’ve thought myself to shoot on 30 anywhere from 20 to 40, but I only shoot a 7.7 gri so I might half to step up my arrow game. I’m right at 58 lbs… keep up the work

[@OutdoorsAllie]

Yes, i love the single pin.

[@tolt1776]

100 grain insert and 200 grain broadhead minimum. Preferably single bevel to the right and mathc the fletch. You will shoot through elk

Go with what Works for You!!!! Archery is a very individual Sport!!!

[@robertdeis132]

Here somethings to consider for a new quiver. Easily detaches from the bow, duel retainers, and if possible a loop on the hood so you can hang it while up in the tree. Also keep in mind a lot of quivers have hoods that are too narrow for fix blades with a 1.25 in or larger cutting diameter.

[@OutdoorsAllie]

For sure!

[@andrevanwyk1110]

Hi Allie, I am from South Africa and have bow hunted aprox 24 african species in the last 12 years ranging from duiker to livingston eland... What I have learned is that one dont have to worry to much about the "pass thru". Proper shot placement in the vital triangle is much more valuable. In most instances a good shot (bearing in mind that african animal's vitals are located more forward) would result in the arrow hitting the opposite shoulder blade, thus preventing a pass thru. This does not mean that you have shot a poor shot or that your equipment does not pack enough punch! Just my 2 cents worth on the subject. Kind regards, Andre😁

[@jonathanyates5198]

You're so lucky. I would love to be able to hunt Africa

[@OutdoorsAllie]

Thanks for the feedback Andre!

[@theamputeehunter2074]

Don’t worry about your low poundage I shoot a 50 pound bow it’s all about shot placement and how close you can get to the animal

[@OutdoorsAllie]

👍

[@Robert-in5oq]

I like my bee stinger stabilizers, I run a front and back bar for my setup. They're a little pricy but I think they are worth every penny. Shrewd stabilizers are also a great option all depends on what you want to spend

[@OutdoorsAllie]

Yes, I like the bee stingers too.

[@noahharris7806]

When you were talking about your arrows and having to shoot a lower poundage bow but you still want to run higher foc I would recommend moving from the axis to the black eagle x impact 4mm arrows. It’s a lighter arrow and I would run the black eagle focos insert system. I’m shooting the 200 grain single bevel cutthroat which is a amazing head if you know how to sharpen them. The black eagle x impact with the 200 grain head and 80 grain insert weighs the same as my axis with 225 grain upfront total so my foc goes up

[@OutdoorsAllie]

I'll check it out. Thanks for the feedback Noah!

[@ronhan2497]

Good finally you got the secret forgiveness on the bow over speed since the bows now adays there all fast enough to knock down elk

[@OutdoorsAllie]

Agreed. Thanks for watching Ron!

[@ScuffedEngineer]

Have you tried finding a lower GPI arrow, maybe stepping up to a 340/350 spine and adding tip weight. This could give you the same overall weight with more FOC which is what helps with penetration along with going to a broadhead closer to the 3:1 height to width ratio. I know cutting diameter can help in not so great shot placement or external factors, but if penetration is wanted for elk, it helps, think going up a gradual ramp vs steep ramp. Using sharp broadheads and keeping broadheads sharp is also vital, they only get duller through an animal. Perfect arrow flight is key as to not waste energy.

[@OutdoorsAllie]

Thanks for the feedback! Much appreciated!

Did you ever look into a Garmin sight? It is the single best upgrade that I did to my bow. I know there’s a lot of controversy about it but I feel that you still have to use a range finder anyways. I can tell you from experience that it is a lot faster then using a hand held range finder and if the animals moves position, all you have to do is press the button aim the reticle at your target again to get the new yardage and shoot. So accurate and isn’t that’s what taking an animal is all about? Being as accurate as possible so they will not suffer from a bad shot. Isn’t it our responsibility to be as accurate as possible for taking a life. It makes me wonder how are not all the bow hunters using this sights. Thank you for reading of you really do.

So you probably already thought of this but I’m gonna through this out there with the draw cycle and how you draw you either had a low elbow or a high elbow and both are horrible for your shoulder if you can have a middle range a good example is Chris bees videos about 3 worst mistakes on archery.

Try putting a bow sling on your bow, and if it is installed correctly, you should be able to hold you bow out and open your hand and you bow should slowly tip back. If it tips back you will need a stabilizer... If it doesnt tip back you dont need a stabilizer.
