New Home Made Darts For My Blowgun??? (hunt included)

[@rodbrown8306]

Those cones are brilliant will try to copy. Thanks.

[@Pipizzakitchen]

Beautiful. I've been rolling cones out of paper tape, sticky side out, covering the outside of the cone with one ply of tissue, and soaking it in siperglue. This looks like it may be lighter, and definitely more uniform. Good game, man!

[@thomasbrantley7443]

Interesting, I'm going to have to try them on the grey squirrels we have

[@huntingforhearts]

they really do work... and easy to make i will say this they are very very light... next weeks video i try to sort out all the problems. it was largely a success. there are some issues with the dart being too light BUT they are accurate. i did change the way i connect the cap... that video will only come out on the 29th of May...

[@thomasbrantley7443]

I can't wait! I actually have a friend making me a metal mold for cones like what you showed in your previous dart making video

[@huntingforhearts]

Nice man yes these do work but they don't have the "punch" of the proper plastics I am use to... you get about half the penetration. Which is fine for birds but not so good for bigger game

[@barryewington707]

Love the safety boots,never seen that brand before, no laces required.😂

[@animalscars3799]

amazing video once again thoroughly enjoying the hunting vids 👍

[@huntingforhearts]

only ever a pleasure

[@lunardaemonium5516]

The cone thing is genius your forgings pretty decent but when you make those darts maybe you should try sharpen and decides of them like a razor blade what you doing there just the basics pierpoint if you want to cause internal bleeding when you hit something you want to make it sharp on the sides an animal will fill up with blood

[@huntingforhearts]

So David I get your point. But I am using the darts for smaller game note that the "head" is not for cutting it is for the barbs... The wight of the dart does the trick of bringing the bird down I do sharpen the blades when going after rabbit and larger

[@Ballenger96]

What kind of steel wire are you using?

[@Rubyfire76]

Where can I buy a cone maker instead on making one using a lathe?

[@mauricioaquino5258]

Very nice. What is the caliber of the blowgun?

[@huntingforhearts]

0.625... And the length is 1.7

[@mikha007]

@@huntingforhearts 1.7metres?

[@wikusvangraan7438]

To fix the "caps" flexing and expanding. Just add some hot glue from a glue gun into the back. The extra weight will also increase stability and penetration at longer distances.

[@huntingforhearts]

It would I use a method similar to that now but it and it really work's

[@rudamchu]

That's exactly what I do

[@toddcunningham3213]

Is your dog a Vizsla? I had one just like it that was an awesome hunter, but did not like to give up the bird when she retrieved it.

[@orrydauginey836]

Merci pour votre vidéo

[@hope4ourfallen]

I literally was just asking how ya got the broadhead so wide then found this vid😄 I am surprised how wide you were able to get em with just the hammer..I thought for sure ya might have used the head of a nail and flattened that part.. Great job bud 😃😃😃

[@huntingforhearts]

Haha glad you sorted it out... I have some crazy blowgun hunting coming in the new year... Even hunting with fruit 😂 don't ask how 🤔 but it worked... Feel free to ask any question... I am always willing to help

[@user-mt4lw3qv6]

how do you aim with this??

[@gervasebarnes]

How would you make a more rigid seal

[@deltahester6505]

Use two of your cones to make it ridged, one inside the other on one dart

[@animalscars3799]

Would you be able to buy the Tim Wells blowgun and try test it? I’ve seen him kill big animals on his channel like hogs (newest video) and other stuff and maybe you could try as well. (just a tip, you can tighten and loosen the cap on the dart to allow it to fall off and allow the dart to penetrate deeper when it hits the animal)

[@huntingforhearts]

yes i know that "trick" but that's why my darts are 25 cm long... so o don't lose caps and steel. The biggest thing i have hunted was a caracal (15kg cat) but our animals are wild average shot on pigs i take is 350 meters... things are wild! Tim Wells uses a blowgun the same bore as what i use. The only difference is Tim has a pipe that costs R 2,000 my pipe costs R 60... i think the blowgun people choose for hunting is up to the individual some will prefer a fancy pipe with dart holders... others really don't care. for me, i think it would detract from my channel. i am trying to show anyone can go hunting... cheaply. in other words you can drive a Ferrari... but you are limited to the same speed as my Fortuna... but let me stop rambling have a awesome day and God bless!

[@animalscars3799]

@@huntingforhearts thanks for the explanation and on another note, when you said Fortuna did you mean the SUV by Toyota? Also, can you send me the link for the mouthpiece for the blowgun as that’s the only thing I need to finish my blowgun. Thanks in advance 👍

[@huntingforhearts]

@@animalscars3799 yea and yes I can... the mouthpiece may differ form mine considerably I have started molding mouthpiece and handles for blowguns... I hope to start selling them online soon

[@LKH9Channel]

exactly my thought. A blowgun is just a hollow tube, you can use whatever that works. Afterall, your technique and how well made the darts only matter. Tim Wells blowgun is just a 6061 T6 aluminium tube. You can buy those pipes yourself without being ripped off. A soda bottle is good enough for a mouthpiece. ~It's not the pen/brush/camera, it's the artist.

[@bruh69k]

@@LKH9Channel hey bro I watch your videos nice seeying you here aswell

[@rudamchu]

I use a plumb bob and thicker plastic jugs like bleach jugs.

[@Blowgun_kill]

Amazing 😊

[@Blowgun_kill]

Amazing

[@SylvainSybaris]

Watching this video I was wondering what your plans were with the birds you killed.... Alright, you at least gave it to your pets, so that's good & proper.

[@gil-juniorriseabovebetraya5972]

where do you live??? i live in california and i will get in trouble if i shoot birds, at least thats what i think... or can people shoot birds that are picking at their gardens??? also i dont think california has invasive species to hunt?

[@huntingforhearts]

House sparrow, common staring, feral pigions,.... The list goes on 😂😂😂 all can be hunted without a permit in California... However I am not sure if you need a license for a blowgun.

[@Cal3b587]

​@huntingforhearts you can't even legally own blowguns in ca im pretty sure

[@connerkicklighter6000]

@Roth Bodia, he poached poor chickens with his homemade blowgun at least you feed tour pet the birds you kill

[@dasbabu7261]

You have a great piece pf art but do not kill innocent birds they are natural insecticides

[@huntingforhearts]

Do you know what species it is? Red billed Quelea. Do you have any idea how much the government sprays and poisons? About 7 million birds anually what is 10 or even a 1000?

[@connerkicklighter6000]

HE FEEDS HIS SNAKE some company kills “ innocent” cows so you can eat what are you vegan

[@rustamshiran929]

Don't kill birds if you won't eat them

[@huntingforhearts]

nothing goes to waste... i have snakes, lizards, and cats that need feeding.
