hunting Elk with a 500gr arrows 3 bladed BH shooting it out of my 51#WIDOW
Should work great for anything you are likely to hunt. :thumbsup:
Sounds like a dead elk to me!!! :bigsmyl:
That will put meat on the ground. Get close and aim straight. If you put it in the boiler room at close range broadside you should get a complete pass thru.
Having said that, I prefer to shoot a bit more arrow weight for large game animals like elk. I am hunting elk with a 55 lb longbow with 584 grain arrows.
this arrow fly so good at that weight .I can put a 125 feildpoint no feathers and shoot that arrow straight out to 35yds even keep a good group(paperplate)
What kind of shaft and at what length you shooting? Sounds like it dialed in!
Arrow placement is the key !!!!!!
:thumbsup: can't wait to see the pics. good luck!
That is the same set up that I have. Should work fine. :archer2:
What brand/model 3 blade Bhead?
I prefer a heavier arrow for a large animal like elk. But if your placement is good, should be a short trail.
How 'bout a 3 blade Woodman Elite 250gr head out of a 55# longbow? My arrow weight was 600 gr though, and I got great penetration with the arrow sticking in the offside shoulder at 27 yards...Personally I like arrows a bit on the heavy side but that's just me :)

I'd go heavier on the arrow, Good Luck ...
