Bro, this should be considered a medium heavy arrow! We should be seeing arrows up to half a pound 3,500 grains! A bow like that could easily shoot that heavy. And heavier is better!
Incredibly quiet! I would love to know the actual speed at 500 gpi. That arrow would easily zip thru any game on the earth at 500 with a good tune and shot placement!
Thats not how this works, you need the mass, decent FOC and a shaft that doesnt flex on impact, or you won't get the penetration. You'd also be dry-firing the bow with a dangerously underspined shaft at that weight. Faster does not equal equal deeper
@@Ren-lx8wv Yes, because the medium you are impacting is able to push back disproportionately harder as velocity increases. Your goal is to turn as much KE into momentum as possible, while remaining stable in flight, flying completely through the animal, into the terrain feature behind it. 'Two holes is the goal', is a phrase that needs more promotion in archery, just look at dog/drone tracker's recovery rates when it goes wrong.
Cody has impressive strength! I own 94 lb King Cobra needless to say it is not my go-to bow. It is challenging to draw! It is impressive speed! Here is where I shot my 94 lb bow - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-tC_UOS1C30A.html
I second that. He's clearly in good shape and I'm not doubting he could pull 100#. However, there's absolutely no way he's rocking 100# back like that.
He must be strong he pulled that back like it was a toy. Nice bow but a good set up with razor sharp broad head @60 pounds Will kill any animal on the planet.. Watch Fred Bear grizzly hunt or howard Hills elephant hunt with traditional bows and with no training wheels.. 😅
Powerful but way too slow, any small animal movement and you completely miss the mark by a long shot. Also the arrow drops from 20-30 yards will be horrendous. Non suitable or ideal hunting setup, a 800grain arrow will be perfect for that bow. You drop only a few KE but increase speed significantly.
@@joshpitts7256 not saying it wont kill any animal, just saying the chance of missing is significantly higher with a setup that slow. Even recurve and long bows shoots around 220fps.
From what I understand this setup is not for small animals that have lightning quick reflexes. Such power is not required even for bison and Buffalo. Only elephants, hippo, rhino. Hate elephant hunting by the way. Should be banned.
198fps may be slow but for that arrow weight the performance is incredible! The theoretical speed is about 202fps for a 365fps bow at 100lbs shooting an 1800 grain arrow so 198fps is pretty much spot on for real world numbers.
198fps with a 1800grain arrow with a 100lb compound is amazing performance, Compared to older bows I've shot an old 114lb martin lynx magnum teardrop cable compound and was only getting around 160/165fps with a 1350grain arrow and a 125lb frankenbow I was only getting 197fps with the same 1350grain arrow
There's no such thing as ft-lb of kinetic energy. Kinetic energy is 1/2 * m * v^2. Kinetic energy is also not the right measurement for penetrating capability, it's inertia, which is just m * v.
I think 157 foot lbs KE is easier for average people to quickly compare and quantify than saying 357,498.5 joules.. although I’m sure the marketing guys would love to use the 6 figure number.
