Listen To The Pro's

Listen To The Pro's - "It has been five years since I last guided a DG archery hunt. It was fantastic to do one again. After lots of patience and hard work we got this 41 inch Chikwa kakuli.

Very few bow hunters manage to take a proper wild free range buffalo let alone a 40+ inch one. Many people say that one should use a 900 or more arrow. I’m still a believer in a 650 grain arrow when it come to wild buffalo. In this case the 650 grain performed exactly as the 950 grain set up did but was more accurate.

Often on free range hunt shots will be slightly further and therefore accuracy and trajectory will be better with the lighter arrow. Penetration was exactly the same. On this hunt the 950 grain GrizzlyStik arrows with Ashby 315 heads and a 650 grain setup with the Alaskan 200 head. I prefer the Alaskan 200." - Zambian based Professional Hunter Thor Kirchner
