Phenomenal Pass-through Shot on a Moose

Greg Buford and Spencer Ashton just got back from a moose hunt and Greg shared some of what they experienced on the hunt - a phenomenal pass-through shot on a moose at 75 yards!

 

Quick note to all of those bowhunters out there who favor light fast set-ups because of flatter trajectories. The thing to consider is: How much energy will your arrows have at these longer distances you want to be able to shoot? Can your arrows still get the job done? From the stories we hear every day - probably not. Also, for those who shoot light fast setups because they don't think they will be able to take those longer shots with heavier arrows - this moose was taken at 75 yards with a 650+ grain arrow. Spencer accepted our 650 Challenge earlier this year and set him self up for success with GrizzlyStik arrows and broadheads of 650+ grains. Here's the story... "Spencer Ashton and I just got back from our 7 day hunt in a Fly In Camp where we hiked through mountains and the bog for 7 straight days. The rut was over and getting on a good bull was nearly impossible. On Sunday we were packed and ready to go when we decided to make another go into the mountains and stalked up on a really good bull but couldn't get him in range. In the process we coaxed this little feller in and he fell to your 650 Challenge. Spencer shot him at 75 yards and the arrow was no where to be found. Right behind the shoulders for a complete pass through. The bull went 40 or 50 yards. Hoyt Carbon Spyder, GrizzlyStik Momentum with 200 grain Maasai broadhead." Thanks for all the good advice! Greg Buford
