Awesome. Whats your arrow / broadhead setup?

Thats impossible! You have to shoot 350 fps and have 76 foot pounds of energy to even think about shooting an elk. lol

Congrats on a great bull! I'm jealous!

Congrats, David! Lot of character.

A woman I helped on a moose hunt killed her moose with a 46 lb recurve and a 450 grain arrow. Moose was down in less than 30 yards after the shot.

As we've discussed before, bow draw weight....

I used a Beman carbon with a bronze 100 gr. insert up front and a 125 gr. Steelforce premium 4 blade broadhead.

Looks like he has a bit of triceratops DNA in him. That would be a great bull to me.

Great bull!!

Just shows shot placement and a good broadhead are more important than speed.

Congratulations, very nice bull.

The alignment and shape of that juniper trunk behind you makes his left antler look really wild at first glance. I had to do a double take!

deerman, it's a Rivers Edge Recurve 54" Arroyo. The 49# is at my draw, might actually be a bit less. A smooth and quiet static limb recurve.

Well done!

If you don't mind, please tell us about your arrow/bh performance. Obviously, it was more than adequate.

A friend of mine took a AZ bull this year with a 47# recurve. Arrow was 500 grain total tipped with a 2 blade zwickey eskimo. Got a pass through on a quartering away shot. Impressive IMO.
