We test out several different kinds of arrows to see which one will penetrate through 3/4" of plywood the best

  • are you going to use the victory vap arrows for hunting? if so would you be confident enough to shoot an elk with one out of a 70 pound bow with a cut on contact broadhead?

  • @BowtechFreak I am. I killed a big Russian boar with them this spring. After the performance i got on the hog with them I would not be afraid to shoot any animal with them in combo with a good cut on contact head.

  • hey ike are you gonna a broad head test particularilly the standard muzzy and the red feather archery

  • @kylejc21 Maybe on the muzzy definitely on the RFA head

  • if you observe, the broadhead diam is bigger so, is normal to penetrate the target and to not stop in . i salut you from romania

  • I like your shirt

  • do the victory vap fit in the mathews t3, t5, t7

    quiver

  • Pretty interesting test. I'm wondering if the plywood is the best testing material however, as portions of the ply can be very inconsistent, including internal knots or gaps. Probably something like MDF would be better.

  • @benhamlett I agree. I'd like to see a comparison easpecially with the Easton Axis because they do weigh more. Thanks for the videos Ike!

  • u shoulod do a comparison with easton fmjs beman mfx or axis ( same arrow ) and vaps

  • @TheNordicHunter

    From a physics standpoint you are correct in saying if the fieldpoint of the arrow is larger than the shaft, after the initial hole has been opened from the tip the remainder of the arrow will fly without any friction and/or resistance thru the target. For accurate results field tips the same size as the shaft or smaller would have to be used. Although I feel here is chance for additional variables in the test using a sheet of wood. Time for ballistics gel Ike! =D
