Traditional Black Death

 

Traditional Black Death - “I just got back from my Cape buffalo safari and what an awesome experience. You can show my story to all the guys worried about arrow speed or shooting under 70# bows on buffalo. I did this with my 56# Osage selfbow and a 900 grain GrizzlyStik.

It took us over two hours to stalk within 20 yards for my first shot. The bull was perfectly broadside but was acting nervous. When I let the arrow go, he turned toward me and the arrow struck him far back in the ribs penetrating back towards the guts. He didn’t like that every much! Even though the arrow went to the cresting, we weren’t sure if I got any lung. He took off into the thick stuff and it took another hour to get back in range on him.

My second shot came at 25 yards broadside. This time I hit him directly in the front shoulder and to my amazement, the arrow still penetrated all the way to the fletch. The bull started to immediately bellow and blood could be seen pouring from his nose.

We gave him a couple of hours and came back to find him within 100 yards from where I shot him. Thank you GrizzlyStik for all your advice and for making such awesome products! I don’t any other arrow and broadhead could have done this. Next stop – Alaskan grizzly.” - O’Banyon Custer
