I install my components the same way you do, with the exception of how i get my field point back out after the glue sets. If you coat the field point shank in a light coat of string wax or shoe polish, ect (any type of release agent) the glue wont adhere to the point at all and u can easily screw the point back out with zero hassle. Maybe its something that will help you out…thanks for the great videos.

Hello MFJJ, greetings from Central Virginia. I just want to let you know how much I enjoy your videos. I have learned so much from you. I am 73 years old and I’ve been shooting for about 3 years. Call me a late bloomer. I taught alpine snow skiing for 18 years until my body said, “That’s enough! Go do something else!” So I took up archery. I shoot as often as I can. Keep up the great work. If I every make it out your way, I would enjoy meeting you. Cheers!

A standard Easton HIT is 16 gr. Paired with a VPA aluminum collar, they call footer, that's 10 gr, it's 26 gr total which gets close to this 22 gr titanium option. I realize titanium is stronger, but I've never had an aluminum HIT bend or break. The insert itself has never failed. The glue and epoxy has failed, but not the insert. I made up a batch of arrows with the standard HIT and used VPA aluminum footers. I've hit rebar in 3D targets, glanced off rocks, stuck trees and 2x4s. The only failure I experienced was the glue. Arrows and components were still in tact. This is indeed an awesome new component system, but I've never understood the dislike people have for the standard HIT inserts. I've used the HITs since the FMJs first came out and broke a lot of arrows along the way and again, not one HIT insert has ever failed me. Just my 2 cents

Thank you Josh. You’re an incredible resource and great teacher for all of us.
@JosephBirkner-h9pАй бұрын
I might be the only one but I would love to see a titanium hit insert that was 50 or even 100 grains. I like that it would be long and help stiffen the arrow shaft potentially allowing the use of a lighter spine arrow and lighter gpi also that much glue in the arrow seems like it would be extra help to keep everything strong and held together.
@paulcarman41135 ай бұрын
These look pretty compelling. Would love to see an impact test with these going head to head with other collared systems. Say, for example, the Ethics system? Also, would love to see the same product in a much longer insert to really reinforce the front end of the arrow.
@paulcarman41135 ай бұрын
To be clear - would love to see a longer Ti insert - reinforcing the front end while still staying lighter. Ethics inserts are great - but to have a long insert for durability you've got a very heavy insert.
@stacyhardin6112 ай бұрын
Absolutely the best arrow components I’ve tried!! Was using your titanium half out which I still use on some arrow builds but the shorter collar on your HIT System makes them better than most as I can cut my arrows shorter being a 31.5” draw length. I was able to go from a 29.75” arrow using Ethics half jackets to a 29.25” carbon to carbon and not only increased my foc but made tuning even easier.

So thank you for caring enough to teach us all!

I think you have really good ideas. I’m interested in a lightweight collar for my Axis 5mms. I have a 31” draw so my arrows are on the heavy side with a 125gr BH at 520gr. and want to reenforce the business end of my arrow without adding much more weight. The titanium seems to be the perfect solution.
@tjrou20055 ай бұрын
I'm hoping you're making a full titanium kit for a Mathews. I've been piecing one together for the last 3-4 months and its a PIA to source the correct screws or even find info without a trip or 2 to the hardware store with a pen and pad. I should have kept track on how much weight I've already saved. Pretty much Axles, Axle screws, and limb bolts are the only thing on my bow currently not swapped to titanium. Currently about to tackle the landslyde hardware.

It matters all around the world, mate! I'm subscribed to all the channels of you and the other lads! I've learned so much, and with that knowledge I've gained confidence in working on my own bow. (After I purchased a press, vice, etc etc) Tearing the bow down to fix limb misplacement scared the crap out of me, btw!!! But my bow now actually shoots Just built 12 RIP TKOs (first time building my own custom arrows.) I just wish international postage from the USA to Australia wasn't so expensive, slow and prone to loss! Anyway Keep up the excellent videos and the good work of spreading the knowledge!

This might sound kinda weird but what about steel inserts for .245 arrows I love the .245 size for durability and price, you usually can get a dozen for 90 dollars or less. There are only a couple of companies that make steel inserts for standard diameter arrows and I think they can be made lighter and better if you do it.

I might have to give that iron will hot melt a try on the next batch of rip tkos i get, i've try just about every glue on the market and the only one that ever really stuck on a victory arrow was bob smith ic 2000 rubberized. But those inserts look awesome and im sure they are going to sell like hot cakes...because everyone knows that a hit with a collar is the most bomb proof component you can put on a arrow. Also we are all still waiting for your hooter shooter and laser beam video.

This is awesome! Question on collars - I noticed the RIP XV 300 (OD 0.255) calls for collar H (0.263). Wouldn't it be better from a squaring/alignment perspective to get the size D (0.254) and lightly sand down the tip of your arrow? Also - impressed with the price points. You'll be selling piles of these.

I've been using hot melt this year and love using it over glue.

I glue 6 arrows with field points and then the other 6 with broadheads. I could be wrong but I feel it makes the strongest connection possible. Any input if this is the wrong thought process?

Why do you use a wrist strap? Doesn't it add pressure to the bow? Is there really a difference in flight between a small diameter arrow and a standard arrow?

Say shooting in a calm environment (garage) out into a moderate crosswind and actually measured the difference say at 60 yds.
