Ranch Fairy Single Bevel Testing

[@calebwebb4019]

It’s gonna be a good day when the RF posts a video

[@ericsmith6443]

You’ve raised a nice young man

[@travishawley1480]

I just switched from the old 400spine to 250spine with 150gr insert and 150gr single bevel Helix 648gr total weight with 22.1%FOC i have never seen anything fly so true and hit so hard before! Im in Love with the adult arrows !

[@snboutdoors9567]

Good. Now go from a 150 insert to a 100 and bump up the broadhead to 200. So much better quality in 200 plus broad heads.

[@casanovafrankenstein8875]

His setup is just fine. Chill.

[@chrisruzsa2798]

22 or so percent is excellent! For my crossbow i am right around 18% it does fly very, very well.

[@timfoster7979]

What gpi is your 250 spline arrow?

[@chrisruzsa2798]

Things you will never control. Blood trail. Movement. Wind. Unforeseen obstacles. What you can control is everything before the shot and you can do one other thing you can make it so on impact the arrow or bolt will exit lower than where it entered increasing a chance of a better blood trail. Please note the chance factor. But that was a hell of a shot and very well done guys.

[@guitarq359]

This video is a great testament to building a bone-breaking arrow, aiming for the heart no matter what the position of the animal, and letting it rip.

[@johnkrieg9933]

I enjoyed your boy on the video. He seems like a very pleasant young man and hunting companion. Cudos to his mother. 😂

[@Kurtdog63]

Pass thru shots increase lethality, improves blood trail with two holes, and many times, you get an "arrow refund" out of the deal. Perfect example of the unpredictability of when and how much an animal can move during and after the shot. It did not appear he was reacting much to the bow going off. He just simply moved during the execution of the shot.

[@darwindarwin141]

Picked up my first compound on Saturday,a PSE ATK 60lb. Bought some 300 spine Easton Carbon arrows too , got Tuffheads from Ranch Fairy ( three blade ) . Can’t hunt here in the Uk but off to Australia I February so lots of practice to be had beforehand . Can’t wait

[@RanchFairy]

Oh do send me pictures. [e-mail]

[@traviswarren394]

Do you have to tune or will they fly the same as a field point I really want some

[@RanchFairy]

@@traviswarren394 If you have underspined or untuned arrow systems. Who knows. I advocate for proper spine to fly 200 grains and bare shaft / nock tuned arrows. Little known fact (the industry hides this) Accurate broadhead flight is an accurate arrow launch and offsetting the lift of the broadhead with the arrow system. If you do have an arrow tuned for 200 grain broadheads. You bet they'll fly. If not, Here to help [e-mail] if you'd like to discuss.

[@justafan5179]

Troy, you have absolutely, inadvertently made my day... the auto-generated captions say "raspberry" instead of Ranch Fairy... awesome video... and brought a huge smile to my face. Take care, my friend!

[@ShawnDRichman]

Nice! I’m still playing around with twizzlers, but found out that my particular 340 spined twizzler on my particular bow at my particular draw weight does well with 225 grains up front (bare shaft)… just that extra hundred grains made a huge difference in penetration, with waaaay less shaft wobble at impact. Keep testing, keep making videos… keep helping people become more lethal in the woods. Have a great day!

[@michaelcancilla9539]

Nothing wrong with a well tuned 340 spine in the low 500 grain range. May not blow through monster boars but will do everything you need on hogs under 150 pounds and whitetails.

[@ShawnDRichman]

@@michaelcancilla9539 whitetails and if I ever get lucky enough to have a black bear wander under my tree are the only species I hunt with the thing.

[@joemurray8902]

"this is the red white and blue edition - you have to achieve it yourself" LOL!!!! Nice!

[@renoldaker4479]

Love your stuff!!! I went pig hunting last summer and used your Brodheads. I was impressed with them.

[@h-minus2212]

That was a great blood trail. Congrats on the fine animal.

[@ScottWConvid19]

Make 1984 fiction again

[@adamhowel3683]

Keep up the great work Troy! They will come around eventually!

[@peetsnort]

I'm so impressed with the modern bows and the ability of the Hunters to get so close

[@jefferystephenson6245]

"Self Achieved" red white and blue edition!!!! HAHAHA I loved it!

[@_DeFiNiTeLy_Not_BrAd_]

Glad to see how well the single bevels have been selling in the last few years. I tried to get my prototype head made in 2018 at my at work and nobody cared, didn't even look at it. 🤣🤷

[@hunt_trap_fish]

Everyday seems like a month... and your kid is grown... I got 3 under 6... and everyday really, truly does feel like a month! lol

[@GenX-Grampa]

I LOVE me some barbecued Texas targets! Or test subjects? Whatever, they taste DAMN GOOD!

[@GenX-Grampa]

Oh, and I've NEVER worn shorts without boots. I don't wanna look stupid like those guys that were shorts and sneakers! Or worse yet, FLIP FLOPS!

[@jesse4530]

Id really love this BH in a left bevel with left bevel bleeders. Sure, easy for me to say not knowing what it costs to re-tool. But still, please make a left bevel version!!!

[@mosinw6697]

Awesome video . Got my 200 vpa single bevel shooting awesome at 20yd 300 spine 546 total arrow . Waiting on 250 spine 6.5mm easton i ordered going 650 ish . Thanks Mr Ranch Fairy

[@ejsocci2630]

I sure enjoy your videos,👊🏻🏹

[@christopheritsdaperrperry2857]

Dude. I found your channel through the THP videos.... I am getting pretty close to getting back into bow hunting after watching you alls videos!

[@poplardeer]

Blood trail every animal, even if you see it down. Always an opportunity to learn. Great video.

[@woodardcsw]

That broad head is amazing

[@clenzyson]

That's on of the best bowsites on the market! I have one myself.

[@ParasitikOne]

That’s one hell of a nice trail…

[@brodyfang4806]

Keep up the good work 👍🏻

[@mikeb6555]

Gotta Love the "testing"! Keep up the good work RF

[@bemidji22]

Any plans for a left bevel?

[@mr.Mikeyboy]

Got ur three blade can’t wait to use it on test subjects

[@twc6771]

As always, another great video.

[@tradbowhunter53]

Really thinking about swit hing from 250 grain abowyer brown bears and 13 grain GT inserts to the 200 grain RF broadhead and 50 grain inserts next year, my thepry is that the 200 grainers should just be more durable, and there for i can practice with them more. The abowyers are great, let me put a 520 grain arrow clean through a mule deer doe with a 43lb(at my draw) recurve. But, the tips bend, ALOT, even with practice, after it went through the doe it may have just hit a rock as it exited but the tip was curled super bad. Not fixable. I think the 250 grainers also require less material to be removed with each sharpening since the cutting edge is smaller. In addition, that slightly more abrupt angle, while im sure it hurts penetration a tiny amount, makes it a more durable head going through bone AND helps it cut more on its way through😊

[@michaelbushey2787]

Troy when are you going to get a bess sharpness tester? It actually shows you how sharp you get your head.

[@jeffhays1968]

Just got mine, 200Gr. mated to 300Gr. Sirius Phoenix bolts for my 400FPS new crossbow. Gonna be an interesting season.

[@RanchFairy]

[e-mail] send me pictures this fall.

[@travishawley1480]

I gotta get one of those work sharp sharpeners

[@davidholder5030]

Hey Troy I got 3 pigs this year on NSW trip biggest 75 kg (140+ pound's) smallest 25kg(50+ pounds ) middle pig around 40 kg(80+ pounds)

[@donnabonning5587]

that was utter devestation!!!

[@davefreeland6440]

Quick question..instead of putting alot of weight in the incerts, wouldn't it be better to put in a better quality broadheads. Meaning solid steel, I have seen alot guys use 100gr or 150gr inserts and 100gr broadheads. I personally changed after seeing some of your testing. I went to a 75gr inserts and 150gr Oz cuts, but thinking about 200gr. Right now my arrows are sitting at 521gr.

[@brodyfang4806]

I only went with 150grain inserts because of the heads I shoot all stainless inserts and sleeves but ethic’s has lots of options 👍🏻

[@stevepalmateer]

do you find that single bevels tend to make a mess of broadhead targets? What if you made a practice head with double bevels so it'd come smoothly out of the target? Not gonna' affect arrow flight significantly is it?

[@chrisruzsa2798]

Great video Troy. Thanks.

[@skeezixzx9r]

A blind man with a cold could follow that blood trail!

[@The_Judge300]

Blood trails can be very unpredictable and the more animals you shoot, the more you understand how unpredictable they can be. Even if you might not always a great blood trail when using a sharp cut on contact broadhead, you will still usually get a short blood trail when using such a broadhead and a heavy arrow that makes your bow silent. And that makes it to still be rather easy to find, instead of when you have an animal running far away in a high speed before it drops. The animal doesn't panic as it often does when hit with a mech or a dull fixed of hear the sharp sound from the bow when using a light arrow. I have shot many animals with mechs over the years, but I have totally stopped using mechs on deer sized animals and larger. When using very sharp cut on contact broadheads and heavy arrows, I often experience that the animal just react and run for a few yards and then just stand there for a few seconds before it wobbles and drops. Or it walks away cautious, having no clue it is dead on it's feet, till it drops in a few seconds.

[@jerrybrewer4851]

I have a Ken Onion worksharp sharpener. Is there a way to sharpen a broadhead with that?

[@RanchFairy]

I don't have one. Don't know.

[@woodardcsw]

He’s a good very shot

[@mikemrdjenovich2571]

Great video! Good to see your son involved, the apple didn't fall too far from the tree 😯 I'm shooting a similar setup and love it! Question, I see some single bevel's on the market with bleeder blades. Your thoughts on if bleeders are necessary? better? not needed? on single bevels. Any talk of a Ranch Fairy single bevel with bleeders? Keep up the great work, love your content!

[@the_sharp_carpenter]

His single bevel in the video has optional bleeders

[@dakotamungall3546]

that is a big freaking hole! looking forward to getting a few of these! do some testing on some hawaii pigs for yall

[@jonathansimmons4253]

Looks like me early deer season on August and September; shorts and snakeboots.

Good work, men! I like that toupee your using too, RF! 😂👍

[@georgetorres6245]

I need too build adult arrows too use on every species hogs Whitetail deer bear one arrow for all that

[@RanchFairy]

550 grains or so (perfect arrow flight) FOC around 17% or more Cut on contact head SHARP! See my ordering and arrow tuning playlist. Email [e-mail] if you have questions.

[@ASimao71]

AWESOME!! 👍👍 Authopsy later?? 😁😁

[@AppalachianArchery]

Wonder how these would do out of my 50lb recurve?

[@RanchFairy]

Arrow flight first!! Ranch Fairy traditional tuning process video is available. For you, using a 200 grain field point. And they will zip right through.

[@Mikyll1969]

someday, when my broke-ass vet butt grows up... I wanna go hunt down at the Ranch Fairy place... but first I need to sort out some adult arrows

[@michaelrosa5410]

Now that's a HOLE ! From the blood trail, it looked like a heart shot,spraying all the way. Only think i'm cautious of on injured pigs is when they have that infection grey meat. I'm not brave enough to eat it. Happens to boar hogs alot from fighting. Infections like crazy. I have always contended blood is a liquid affected by gravity. The lower the exit, the better your chance for blood to seek thru the hole. If the cavity is lower than your exit, guess what gravity does ? It flows the blood to the lowest place,which might not be your exit or entrance but the chest cavity. Every recovered animal you find with a poor blood trail, open up the cavity and see how much blood is swooshing around. It's truth. this was a great hole done by the broadhead. But also snuck that head right into the spot where the leg in normal conditions would be, but because it was eating corn and moving,that leg exposed the target uninhibited. Perfect.

Bought the ranch fairy broadhead. Advertised as sharpened. It was not sharpened not even close. Even came with a paper signed and cuts made in it. I couldn't cut the paper just tore.

[@beekeeper8474]

Those arrows cost more than my bow😢

[@419outdoors9]

Dear fellow watcher. Please dont spin an broadhead then attempt to kill a deer unless you sharpen the blade. Dull tip = more impact resistance (friction loss). Resulting in a highly possible chance you may not get a pass thru Lol or worse yet a deer that might go 200 instead of 45

[@RanchFairy]

I should have covered that more clearly. Fair. We did and strop!!

[@419outdoors9]

@@RanchFairy "pointed" that out for the newbies. I enjoy your shows, took your advice, now I kill alot of deer. Most don't go 40. Take care, The Lord bless and keep you

What is the deal with the fairy nickname has that ever been explained? Lol

[@travishawley1480]

Its because people expect him to do magical things to their arrows like wave some fairy dust and there flying true

Yup, in an interview he explained he works on a ranch that's open to the public for events and such... so all of the behind the scenes stuff, requests, maintenance, etc... who does that?... the Ranch Fairy 🙂.

[@J155P]

I found with my cutthroat Broadheads, removing the burr with the same technique created a small secondary bevel and ruined the single bevel feature.... making it impossible to get them super sharp.
