Sometimes Things Go Wrong

Sometimes Things Go Wrong - "I shot this impala with 12+ kudu cows and young bulls inside of 15 yards over the water. The impala was being pushed around by the kudu and I knew when he got still I had to make my shot. With him quartering to us I trusted my GrizzlyStik TDT arrow and 200 grain Silver Flame XXL to crush his shoulder and keep going.

Stupidly without making sure I was clear of all obstacles, I took the shot and right before the arrow came off my my string, the top cam hit the roof and my bottom cam hit my Ph’s arm at the same time (he was filming), yet with the high FOC it was too late for mistakes the arrow knew where it was going and found its mark through the shoulder, both lungs, and all the way into his guts in the offside.

Thank you GrizzlyStik for building a product that I can trust and performed flawlessly in a bad situation. He was down inside of 100 yards on a dead run." - Joseph Brinker hunting with Ka Maoto Safaris
