No. Cannot do that because everyone will complain. Plus we need hundreds of them so putting them all together like that woul...

It is interesting how different hunters see things for sure. I for one will not shoot a buck unless I believe he is 5 years or older. I don't really go off antler size much. I have never shot a buck under 130", but that is only because I don't shoot the young ones. The three bucks on my hitlist...

Yep. Clearly you guys missed the whole point of the video.

Oh and the deer was not shot in the rump. it was a quartering shot and lighted knocks are very deceiving on showing shot placement.
It is real film and not faked. They show the shots as they happen. Can't fake a guy's first archery deer.

Awesome cat load for sure! But the real question is how well will these things perform at distance? like 300-400 yards? They must have a super super low BCE and I imagine they would lose velocity quite rapidly. I wonder how well they will group around 200 yards?
