I would think twice on T Rex or Tembo, but if it lives in N. America, go for it.

Probably nothing. I'm pretty sure I wouldn't be able to get to full draw with the bow required to propel that arrow.    :)

Not as heavy a draw as you may think. 30" draw helps some tho.

705 gr and 162 fps....don't matter what draw weight is. That heavy arrow at that speed is good medicine.

I would like to know what setup Howard Hill used to kill his first elephant with. I bet it was something close to this.

Its way to slow and way too heavy.

"Howard Hill's most famous animal is certain to be the elephant he took in 1950 while hunting and filming in Africa, gaining Howard the fame of being the first white man to kill an elephant with bow and arrow. He used a 41 inch aluminum arrow tipped with an enlarged version of his classic Howard Hill Broadhead weighing in at 1700 grains. The bow he used had a draw weight of 115 pounds"

Make sure there are no animals behind the animal you are intending to kill. With that set up you could be killing things you don't have tags for!    :bigsmyl:
