Use code THP to save 10% on all Vector arrows! vectorcustomshop.com

[@jacobbeers1136]

Ordered my dozen a week ago - at checkout I was like “what the hell lemme type in THP for a coupon code” cuz I noticed y’all were shooting vectors on the longe range ranch fairy test video. Didn’t know if it was a thing even. And BOOM 10% off. Can’t wait to get my arrows! 300 spine with total weight that can range from 565 all the way up to about 700 after I figure out what broadheads I’ll be using. It’ll be 565 with my current trocars but gonna play with different weight points before deciding on some single bevels. I’m also running out of time for all this haha

[@southernrootschickenfarm5385]

Yea I’m shooting a bear salute for my first deer season

[@jessiehaney9354]

Just ordered some

[@srmjr4200]

Been shootin' GrizzlyStiks but these vectors look pretty dialed in and kinda... cousins of Grizzlystiks but for twice as many for virtually the same price. ...Still stickin' with the Massai broadheads though.

[@cdbsniper]

I shot the 200 samurai last year and I'm sticking with em this year! No problems at all thru 6 whitetail and easy to resharpen.

[@jackbuendgen389]

To anyone who reads this comment: good luck this hunting season! May it be your best ever!

[@shawnhagen6871]

Best of luck to you as well jack!

[@nickpezzello3066]

Best of blessings to you as well!!

[@dannysage97]

And to you brother

[@jerrycox5700]

You to brother

[@stefanpozder8376]

To you as well sir

[@BledJ73]

Jake, you should use whichever broadhead cut you. If it drew your blood, I think it's a sign! Looking forward to the new season!

[@tedmeyer6028]

I have been using a Bear Attitude for a few years and don’t plan to change, greatest bow I have ever used. Good luck to you boys this year, love watching the videos!

[@danmemmel9440]

I will NEVER get tired of watching Zac’s ND stalk on that beauty. As epic a hunt as you’ll ever see. Well you all have a bunch of them. Keep it up!

[@walshconcretecoatings]

literally the best hunt on video

[@jasonhildreth5090]

Great vid! Thank you for the info. I've been wanting to try a heavier arrow set up for a while now and love hearing what you guys use!

[@matthewsims359]

My first video in a while. Nice setups yall have. And as always, now I’m pumped for deer season. It opens sept. 4th here in ky. Good luck guys

[@SaintUndead14]

Jake! As a fellow Wisconsinite and since I also am shooting the grizzly stik samurai's, I think that what you ought to go with!! Can't want to watch the bucks start dropping! Can't wait for season to open! Good luck fellas!

[@billmcconnell1737]

Season is almost here. Time for the Hydrelin to start flowing, ups an downs. Ready to enjoy my own hunts. But also Ready to follow along with you guys. Time to make memories.

[@redneckriker2514]

Glad you guys make videos like this. Ive rifle hunted since I can remember but I’m trying to get into bow hunting now and this definitely helps

[@travispuff180]

Jake, I'm putting my order in today for the Samurai's! Would love to see how you do with them! So, there's my vote! Good luck this season boys! I'll be following along the whole way!

[@Dr10Jeeps]

I love your channel guys. You are very talented, very knowledgeable, and very ethical bow hunters. Thanks for the enjoyment you provide.

[@chasetheoutdoors7469]

I absolutely love you guys. Y’all have some great times together and I love the camaraderie y’all have. Everyone will drop everything to help you track and haul out a buck. I respect you guys and seriously watch 5-10 episodes a day on prime video. I’m in season three and it sucks because I’ll be catching up to the end soon. Y’all have me absolutely pumped for this coming season and have inspired me to keep at it. I don’t have the luxury of private land so I have to hunt public land like y’all. Wish I had a group of friends like y’all. It’s just me out here in North Carolina so I have to adapt my hunting and think of how to get the deer/bear out when I walk several miles in. I want to say a really appreciate all you guys. I have a challenge for y’all if your up to it and I would love to see it. Come hunt the NC mountains on public land. I’d like to see how y’all hunt it and hopefully I can learn some things. Good luck this season fellas shoot straight and never quit.

[@nooneofimportance7025]

Love that you guys use equipment that the working hunter can afford. Keep it up boys love the videos!

[@jakehughes4592]

Watching these videos are torture, I should be prepping for the season but I'm stuck in the middle east for the time being. Good luck to all this season. God Bless

[@davidparker6425]

Jake, let’s see what the tuff head evolutions do this year 🤘🏼🤘🏼

[@mountainmetalhead15]

I absolutely love my Bear bow ! Killed my biggest buck on its first trip in the woods and keeps killing year after year 🤘🏻

[@stevecrader3479]

As if I needed something else to get me excited, 10 days away from heading to Wyoming for elk and THIS comes out! Ha Ha Ha You guys are like handing a kid another donut for the sugar rush and I love it. Can't wait to see the incredible hunts this year, especially watching Zach, the spot and stalk master, work early season magic.

[@justinsalzl1517]

Jake, I went thru something similar, but turns out it was a slight inconsistency in my grip. When it’s on, everything flies great. For Jake and Zach, as far as broadheads, I have the Magnus black hornets and stingers, cutthroat, tuffhead 265’s, and the tuffhead evolutions 200 and I’m shooting the 200 evo’s this year. They fly really well and seem damn near indestructible. My Tuffhead 265, last year after a pass thru and burying 16 inches in the dirt was still sharper than the one I tried to touch up myself earlier in the year. So I know they’ll keep that edge once you get it there. I’m really excited to see the 20 degree edge do some damage. Good luck with your decision and have a great year!

[@quintinkale1242]

200 grain broadhead for a whitetail little much and 4 fletch will make you have more spin which kills your accuracy out passed 40. Great set ups for the bows and stuff. I myself like to be 480 grain arrow but I also stretch it to 60 for deer. I agree collars are a must on arrows 14 foc is plenty. 18t is getting up there. Drastically dropping speed especially in single cam bows. Speed doesn’t kill and I get that but there’s a happen medium. Best of luck to you guys and the hot wire sight is money 20-35 on pins and floater. Can’t beat it I built a sword punisher 3 pin set up 20-30-40 bottom pin floater. I will be fallowing along best of luck guys!

[@alancall5113]

Can't wait for the season to start keep them coming boys

[@brianrice6993]

Can’t wait to watch the thp crew again this year.

[@randyrussell8791]

I just wanted to say good luck this year to you guys and everyone else on here watching. Also, are you planning on coming down to Alabama again this deer season?

[@wjk94061]

Thanks for the pointers (e.g., Zack on why he likes the quiver adjustability). I watched "STABILIZERS for Bow Hunting - Testing the Difference" by DIY Sportsman, where he used the Mantis X8 system to measure his movement, with the different stabilizer scenarios. I appreciated the comments on making changes for species (pronghorn, elk, deer)...good to be reminded one size may not be best, when you plan to hunt animals of very different sizes.

[@danlinek6302]

Opening day tomorrow here in South Carolina I’ll be in the stand by 5:45am. Let’s get some this year boys!!!!!

[@jonathonwhite2813]

U guys are the biggest hunting show on KZbin congratulations been here since the beginning.

[@patrickhaney7540]

I used the Grizzly Stik 200 grain Samurai last fall. The buck was quartering to me slightly. The arrow entered the base of the neck broke the scapula. The tip of the broadhead broke off and prevented a complete passthrough. 28" draw @ 65# 654 TAW. We did harvest 4 deer with the 200 grain Samurai. Mine was the only one that did not pass through.

[@officerfoxtrot3633]

Jake, I’d personally go with Tuffheads out of those two. The best option design wise is probably the samurai, and I’m sure durability would be about equal. But, those single bevel evolutions and Tuffheads reputation for being indestructible I think would more than do what you want it to this season. I’m a sucker for single piece designs. Even though I’m shooting the Iron will Wide Solids this year.

[@PonderousSage]

I just got my HMRs in. Paired with a Stinger 150 and I am pumped!!!!!!

[@ericwiitala5407]

Great video and set ups. Nice to see you guys not buying the latest bow every year. Not that there's anything wrong with that. But most of us can't do that, so it's nice to see. Stick with what works and if it ain't working, then change.

[@publiclandenemy4338]

Agreed

[@MJswam4AU]

Just ordered a half dozen THP arrows and can’t wait to get them firing missiles. Lead time is 4 weeks though so I’ll be cutting it close for WI opener but have the components to build similar arrows to get me through

[@brianleeker2899]

Been shooting my Bear Attack for 10 years now. Don't fix it if ain't broke. The hard cams can fling those heavy arrows just fine. Good luck fellas!

[@lanewillhite]

Jake, I'd go with the Tuffhead personally...1-piece design means all other things being equal (flight, sharpness, etc), you're less likely to have an issue with the ferrule and set screws either coming loose or catching the ferrule on bone as it passes thru. Those Evo's are legit. Just a few more weeks!!! Good luck this season, always love the videos guys

[@aaronhoppock2726]

Gotta agree less parts less worries

[@MyLonewolf25]

Agreed

[@stark_outdoors]

Working on building my own arrows as we speak. Would be awesome to hunt with you guys one day. Best hunting videos ever.

[@phild9813]

Love the single cam setups. Wish they didn’t have split limbs, but it seems like they are all going that direction.

[@TruffulaSteve]

Heck yeah!! hopefully Zach and the BRO crew will be there for round 3 of BRO/THP elk season. I’ve been absolutely enthralled with those hunts recently. It’s got me wanting to go OTC in 2022 so bad. Setting goals and going and doing em

[@daltonsettles8464]

i watch all the videos but i look forward to these so much lol

[@Gibbs-Bijan-moon]

Go with the tuffhead , they are awesome . My spring bear went 10 feet

[@capefearnc412]

Cant wait for the season to come in, watching yalls channel always gives me motivation to try something new each year!! Kept hard at it this past seaon and was able to harvest my biggest buck to date. Thank you guys for showing us that theres many ways to hunt public lands and private if you have that opportunity!! GOOD LUCK this season fellas from North Carolina!

[@WildTines]

Would be so much fun to hunt with Zach! He got so pumped in an epic stalk!

[@gunnerlonberger5737]

So glad to see this video 😍

[@chucksmith5002]

All these Bear Bows . Going to have to dust my bow off haven`t used it in several years . It`s a Hoyt Power Hawk 70 lb. Draw . I had to go to a Crossbow after my Heart problem couldn`t pull it back . Thanks enjoyed it

[@bkeller3254]

I just switched to using the GrizzlyStik Samurais. I hope they work well!

[@shirtsdawg1053]

Could have sworn I saw Zach shooting a Mathews Vertix last year! Thought it was different at the time because everyone else shoots Bear bows!

[@davetoms63]

When is Greg breaking out his longbow again? He came so close that one year. Anyway, good luck this season and looking forward to the videos.

[@FISHUNTREECOUNTRY]

Longbows are sooooo versitile. Aim at the bottom of the armpit for 50 yd shots and you lung em by the time they duck and take off. Medium weight arrow, medium-high FOC, heavy 2 blade head.

[@NWAHNTR]

I agree 100% ! Trad takes guts to be willing to have to pass on shot oprotunities you could easily take with compound. My hats off to him just for giving it a try on film last year. But yes fingers crossed greg at least fills a doe tag with traditional

[@israelpizana9928]

i just got my first bow. i got the Bear Species after seeing some of your older videos.

[@FISHUNTREECOUNTRY]

Also, come hunt some public land across Canada. We got plenty for THP specifically. Archery folk in camo are welcome anytime.... just avoid the yuppies in Toronto.

[@jacklara2690]

@Jake Your bow set up is really similar to mine mate! I'm at 725 grains. I hightly recommend Abowyer broadheads. Found them on an oldtimers forum. Great mechanical advantage arrows just like the Ashby 315 design from Grizzlystik. But way cheaper and a lot lighter obviously. Great arrows. Came wildly sharp out of the package. Couldn't improve the edge on a 6,000 grit stone.

[@2012lucasb]

Ssshhh. Don't tell anyone about these!😄

[@deverdoo5228]

You guys need to make a tshirt with a screenshot of zach all jacked up bow in hand screaming Jacob lol that energy is what it's all about

[@markb.1259]

Thank You THP!!!

[@a.b.k1983]

Definitely want to see the Tuffheads in action.

[@aquila_brown]

Hey guys thanks for the video and all the awesome content. Second year bow hunting, inspired by your videos to try something new and branch out from rifle hunting. Killed a nice buck last year at 5 yards on the ground. I've got my bear cruzer shooting well with some Magnus stingers on 515 grain arrows. I wanted to try Nockturnal lighted nocks because they look super helpful but when I tried them they made my POI drop by inches. Anyone have any idea why?

[@kevindonahue7355]

Use the one is shorter in length that is so cool that you are coming to wyoming to hunt I live in Powell wyoming I'm so excited can't wait till september I shoot a a diamond edge 320 with 400 grian arrows 90 grian insert 125 grian broadheads at 50 pounds I'm 55 like you guys so much I watch your videos all the time may god bless us all on our hunting endeavours

[@wadeh.7861]

Loved this video

[@mikemelella60]

Samurais are awesome Jake!

[@xb12ssheroblue]

Jake- all else being equal, the shorter more compact broadhead will be stronger, I think that’s more important than having a higher mechanical advantage of the longer blade. If a tip folds over, the arrow will absolutely deviate from its path; I believe you may have some first hand experience in this ;).

[@officerfoxtrot3633]

I agree with you on choosing the Evolution, that’s what I would use. But… Grizzlystik isn’t exactly an average company using crap materials or thin blades. I doubt it would have any durability issues. Which one is better? Ashby recommends the long 3-1 style profile as being more beneficial and the best option. However, on whitetail and elk I don’t believe you need to go full Ashby to get the job done. I believe they’d be equal in results.

[@thepubliclandnomad3365]

Ive had THP playlists on repeat for the last week. Thanks for the new video!

I’m looking to buy a compound which one of those would be the best to get started with?

[@wiscokid9890]

I don't think I would have gotten turkeys the last two years without watching you guys. Until last year I hadn't turkey hunted since 2013. I had only 1 turkey under my belt before 2013. As for a bow set up. I have 2011 bowtech assassin. All I have to say is it's the biggest pain in the butt to get it to shoot like a dart with light or heavy arrows. Not sure what I'm gonna do this season

Hey Greg! I was wondering how you were able to make the Ironwill Broadheads compatible with the Day Six arrows?! Did you use there insert/outsert system or Ironwills? Wondering how you went about that. Thanks so much- appreciate the help.

[@ML-ks2lj]

Use the the single bevel that has a wider cut

[@diy-hyrum9842]

Will you guys do a video on how to tune in your pin sights? Please! I just got my 1st compound bow, coming from traditional bows. And the guy at the shop that helped me sight in my pins did NOT do a very good job! I'm consistently shooting to the left and high at my 20 yard pin.

Follow your arrow with your pin. Another words move your 20 yard pin up and left.

Thank you for the update on the stuff you guys trust taking into the woods. I like zachs quiver. I hunt from the ground and hate when my nocks get full of dirt. I was going to get a tight spot for the adjustability but i bet that troohy ridge is cheaper

[@dustinwindschitl5429]

Jake, how are the 250 spine arrows shooting? My total arrow is 718, 27 1/2 draw and I have to shoot 200 spine to get it to tune good

Killer setups. Lots of blood will spill this season!

[@alfonso9847]

Any videos on the whitetail legend on a hunt? thanks

[@timharrelson7797]

Had a question. I shoot a matthews v3. Very aggressive cam system. It's a real nice bow. But I practice 3 or 4 times a week. And pull 60 lbs just fine . But usually sore for a day or two after. Was curious about the solo cams on the bears. Had s white tail 2. Years ago. R they a little better as far as the draw

[@JakeSmith791]

Yalls videos not only convinced me to explore higher FOC and heavier setups, they made it fun to go through the process. Last deer season set in stone that i would only shoot a heavy arrow with at least 19% FOC. Even got a couple of my hunting buddies following suit.

[@booner016]

You know something went down when Zack uses your full name 🦌 Keep up the great content guys.

I notice Aaron is shooting Cutthroat SB. What made you choose them? I've been trying to decide between Cutthroat 200gr SB and Tuffhead Evolution 200gr.
