I'm Travis Fields, just your average bowhunter from Kentucky. This channel will consist of mainly videos of archery, bowhunting, and whitetail deer. Subscribe if you like it!
I know that this is a bit of an older video, but I had to comment and say great job! That was quite the test and seemed like a lot of work to get the video made. Thanks for the resource brother!
The penitration of the toxic seems like something went wrong. Not just from other videos of broadhead testing, but from shooting deer myself. I happen to love the toxic, and maybe I'm biased, but with good reason. Every deer I have shot with the toxic the furthest one ran was 40 yards before falling down dead. The best "penitration" type shot, I shot a doe at around 20-25 yards away, it went through the right shoulder blade and came out the left upper arm (shoulder) bone. When I rolled her over to see if it penitrated out, the exit wound was huge! Completely blew the shoulder bone into splinters. If I can find the video I'll have to try and post it. I was shooting my Hoyt with 65lbs draw weight. I lost my mind when I saw the damage it did exiting that doe! And that was entering the right shoulder blade and exiting the left upper leg bone.
I actually used the toxic broadhead. And had a complete pass through. But i didnt hit bone. Pulled if from the dirt and was unusable. Never used um again. Good vid
Excellent points and good thinking about broad heads and what works for you! I may choose something different but if it works for me that’s fine. I only use fixed blade broad heads and my friend only uses mechanicals. His choice makes sense for him and he kills plenty of game animals. Hunters do your homework and find out what is going to work for you. ! Enjoy this outstanding post!
You may not see this but was the annihilator the regular or xl version just wanted clarification I’m going to guess the regular one but was still wondering
Well lookie what i just stumbled on here. Great job! I hope to do my own field test on a live one this season. Can not wait to send my lung poppin Annialator on its way and watch it do what its designed to do. Total confidence in it. Been telling everyone else about this BH to. Good luck this season to you all. I will be reporting.
I use a Chinese Knockoff of the Wasp Drone 100 grain or classic Muzzy 100 grain design for my main big game broadhead that is at 1 inch then use for small game a much smaller broadhead in 100 grain for my arrows that also has a 125 grain I do not use of the same model. Now neither does my brother since he likes a 125 grain G5 field tip design with solid judo stoppers behind them same weight as everything he has including his Game Tracker Terminators 2 sets/one set of. I got my dad some small cheap blunt type with points at 125 grain like his 125 Chinese knockoff of the Game Tracker Terminators since his arrows have field points of 125 grains as well. I like the fact my small game gives a similar shot to the broadhead just smaller less damage as is less is needed with small game. I am not sure I could legally use my small game broadhead for big game as in South Dakota where I live as I thought 1 inch was the minimum size but might not be, I do know broadhead though in South Dakota has to be minimum of 75 grains the same weight as the lighter Wasp Drone and Lighter Muzzy classic/Muzzy MX--3/4 are and fairly certain are not allowed to be single beveled. I believe in using the same weight as in practice with the field points, so I have 100 grains on those and the small game are an almost similar smaller version of the big game heads I use trying to go as similar as I can for hunting as similar is best in my thought process.
Too much focus on the gear. The most important thing is shot placement and no broadhead can fix that. You can have a 300000 dollar bow rig and a 90000 dollar broadhead and if the shot placement is bad then you got nothing.
I’m not sure why anyone uses mechanicals, you can’t go wrong with fixed blades but you absolutely can with mechanicals, you owe it to animals you hunt not to maim them so y add the option of that happening for no fucking reason
One thing if you want the hardest hit arrow you're gonna have to put a little bit more on the front of it and I'm gonna have enough momentum to punch through a lot of things if also if I was you I would be shooting a soild me shooting a solid broadhead fixed 2 or 3 blade made out of tools steel
Nicely done. My only issue is the accuracy weight being only 15%. IMO, even a crappy arrow on target is going to perform better than a quality arrow in the wrong spot. (That initial buck proves this point exactly. ANY of these broadheads in the right spot would have done the job on that buck. I know your not blaming the arrow for the miss but the point is made. A broadhead that penetrates best means nothing if you're only shaving his chest.)
Man! I have seen many broadhead testing videos and this is by far the best one! I had never thought about the milk jugs with water in them! maybe do a video with mechanical broadheads?
