What would you consider to be a good budget friendly sight with these features? This will be my first time elk hunting. I'm confident 60 and in. Mainly use just a five pin fixed. Hunting western new Mexico. Lots of open but dense woods too. Thinking about using my climber on some of the ponderosa pines too.
This year for elk I'm using my Spot Hogg Triple Stack with the pins set at 30, 40, 50. It'll be a little high at 20 with the top pin and a little low at 40 (280 fps launch speed). The nice thing about the Spot Hogg is it has triple indicators so I know what each of my 3 pins is set to at all times. I can use my top pin as the rover out to 90+ yards.
It’s a pretty solid discount too! Awesome!
Great info brother I use a three pin slider for hunting
If Hunter Biden’s paintings could sell for over a $1mil, your elk drawing has to be worth at least that. Great info!!
That’s why I love the landslyde 5 pin just wish they offered a 4 pin. For me 3 pins is not enough 5 is to much but I guess we can’t have everything haha. Good video thanks for the great content
I pulled a pin out of my black gold 3 pin slider and went to 2 pin. I keep it set with bottom pin at 40 and set my top pin to be right on around 25ish. I can’t remember exactly right now but for the simple ease of elk hunting in heavy timber. With this my drops have me covered from about 47 and in. Anything under ten I know to just hold lower than usual. Or just split pin 1 and 2. Anything outside of my bottom pin I have time to range and set. But most cases I don’t get those shots in the heavy dark timber anyway
Thanks Aron,I switched to the HHA tetra 4 pin this year for out west.
World class bow hunting knowledge followed up with world class artwork. The complete package
good tips
How did you do that paint job on the alpha x
Spray paint
I use sights with 2 fixed pins and 1 moving pin for everything. When hunting, I set the moving pin at 40 yds with my 2 fixed pins at 20 and 30. For 3D, the moving pin goes all the way out to 80 yds.
Awesome info, please do more technical archery talks like this!
I live in Michigan mainly hunting white tail what pack would you suggest I buy to go on my ark frame for out west but can still use here for treestand I already have a camo bag and guide lid
Day hunting out west or backpack hunting?
@@aronsnyder9487 3-5 day backpack but I already own a camp bag and guide lid I was thinking about the absaroka because it compresses down so much but you would know better then me
I love my canyon pounder . Best hunting sight on the market in my honest opinion
I’m diggin it basically mpbr for hunting rifles
Similar to what he said about the canyon pounder floater…I have the tetra max 4 pin and set my 40 yard pin has the rover. It’s in the middle of my scope and stays centered in my peep at longer distances. I prefer this opposed to the bottom pin as I would start to pull my head back to see through the peep at longer shots.
I use a single pin in northeast pa for white tails. I set my pin on 25yds and I’m good for 30yds or 20yds and I don’t have to worry about shooting farther than that in the woods I hunt.
same here. aim at bottom of heart for 20 yd, aim on the spine/ high lung for 30yd. 20 is really about 2-2.5” high.
Could listen to this dude all day!
great stuff. PLEASE give info on the proper wear of wind braker
When you got sh it running down both legs Epic
Listen to people who consistently kill the animals you want to kill. This guy is that guy.
Any idea if this will hold a standard size protractor?
Video enjoyed watching/listening to this. Great info share. I got a wonder though cause I am genuinely curious… Aaron do you write your own product promos😂🤣🤙🏾
Some of the best advice for arrow builds ive heard in a while. Ive heard great things about every broadhead you mentioned. Only honorable mention id have is the grim reaper line. And also for some quicker smaller game keep in mind the iron will that are hollowed out make more noise in air. Good luck to everyone this year!
I shot gap "at the target" for years and it worked. Instinctive gap is real. Then Gary McCain explained gap "at the bow" on a forum I was on. It's really gap "at the arrow" and works good for me who looks at a tape measure all day. Instead of 10 or 20 inches of gap at the target, I now see 1/4", 1/2", up to 1-1/4" gap right over the collar. So, my point on is 40 yards, at 35 yds. I have a sight picture with point 1/4" below, then 3/8" at 30 yds., 1/2" at 25 yds. etc. Shoot them all right down to 5 yards and get that sight picture burned into the ole brain. This also turns into instinctive gap pretty naturally. Big Kifaru fan here, thanks for all you do.
Need Snyder vids, just love it. He’s just harder than woodpecker lips.
Now I'm kind of curious, I've always boiled my water at a lower temperature it took longer but I assumed it would use less fuel. I wonder if that's the case or not. Does it save more fuel to have it on full blast high heat?!?!
You mention 5.8-6.5 grains per lb of draw weight. For someone with a 30.5 inch DL and 70 lbs, would you follow that same standard for whitetail arrows?
Definitely
@@aronsnyder9487 thanks for the reply!
So Brent’s Valkyrie system is basically this.. that’s what I’m running.
Solid advice no doubt. I'm a 27" DL and pulling 60 lbs DW. My hunting arrow set up is a Black Eagle X-Impact 350 with the Iron Will Snyder Core system and impact collar. Total weight is 414 gr.
Awesome, Aron. Thank you for the quick hitter... makes a lot of sense!
It looks like a far simpler design. Makes you wonder why it's $50 more than the duplex...
Not much to wonder. It's a completely new frame system, all Carbon. Carbon is expensive, especially USA carbon. All new foam in the shoulder straps and belt too. Duplex is HDPE and Aluminum/Composite Stays. $50 is pretty minimal for the innovation.
I’m 27.5 draw length shooting a 70# lift My arrow set up is the axis long range match 4mm with the standard components and I’m running iron will single bevel w/bleeders (125grain) I believe in total I am at 400 grains. New to the archery game and my first elk hunt is in sept. Is my arrow setup sufficient?
Assuming you’re shooting 300 spine and approximately 26.5” arrows, I would guess your total weight is closer to 460 (9.3*26.5+55+7+27+125). That’s plenty as long as you’re able to push that with a fair amount of speed. For reference, I shoot 458gr and 503gr setups somewhat interchangeably for Elk (30” DL, 77#, V3 31) with 100gr QAD Exodus or SEVR 1.5s up front
@@jameshoward7978 340 spine Sorry forgot to add that detail
Aron, Thank you. Now do an ultimate whitetail setup video.
I can do that, but honestly, my Arrow doesn’t change from one animal to another. I could definitely talk about the differences in penetration of a Whitetail compared to an elk or where changing your set up might benefit you for Whitetail compared to help.
I completely understand that for a western hunter. I should have been more specific. Like an Eastern hunter who only has whitetail and doesn’t hunt anything bigger. Whitetail only specific recommendation. Thank you sir.
What’s a good budget poundage tester? I don’t have the budget for a good draw board yet. I am increasing my poundage this summer and would like to see what I have it at now.
Last chance archery Or a digital fish scale
What about the valkyrie system for micro diameter shafts? Would you recommend?
Good luck to everyone this season .
27" #70 shooting 430gr total. Rampage 300 spine 100gr annihilator 50gr hit and 10gr collar 3 fletch AAE hybrid 26 left helical.
grade "a" educator here. seriously good communicator... thanks for sharing mate.
Good stuff as always
Arron sir can you tell me what you have seen with your evolution Jekyll and Hyde heads out at distance concerning drag? Are you losing 1 to 2 yards like other mechanicals out past 70 yards? Curious what you have seen trying to narrow down what I will use this year and I have both those but have not tested out to distance.
At 80 yards I really don’t see much drop with either of those broadheads. At 100 I get about a 4 inch 26 inch drop with Jekyll and next to none with the Hyde.
Solid advice. Lower poundage shorter draw length guy here. 27" at about 63 pounds. Had good luck with elk keeping arrows in the 425 grain range with a fixed head like the Exodus. Also like the recommendation of sticking with more weight up front. I shoot 100 grain heads but with the Black Eagle SS half outs coming in at an additional 56 grains. I prefer the .204 diameter arrows which I feel is a happy medium. Like the stick bow guys I have a significant arc in flight at distance. All things considered there is a balance between weight, speed, trajectory, momentum, etc. Nothing here intended to be an asshole.
Same here, 27 inch draw, 65 lbs. 431 grain arrow, tipped with a black hornet ser razor. No problem with the two elk I've shot with this set up.
10gpp recurves.. works best I’ve seen over years in all regards, speed but more importantly sound. 7.5-8.3gpp compound… my Hoyt rx8 at 65 pds with a Easton 340 FMJ & brass insert with 100 gn is one hard hitting bow… and may I add very quiet which is a must here in Midwest when hunting whitetails 5 years old and up.
Wise words I believe in.
Don’t be an asshole. Best sign off ever. Great , succinct video with tangible takeaways. 👊
Let’s hear some more of your thoughts on the Beast broadhead!
Peckerwood here, I caught all of that except your dissertation on orthogonal polynomials.
I had to go look that up to figure out what you were talking about lol
What about us guys with t rex arms? I'm a 27" draw and 70# draw weight
Guilty as well!
26"
How do you feel about a deep six insert and collar with a sevr or iron will broadhead?
Pretty similar to a hit insert with a collar, so I’d say he’d approve.
The biggest negative side to the deep six system is availability. They’re not as durable as some of the other options but with a collar, it’s not bad.
@@aronsnyder9487 nothing better than an answer from the man himself!
You should do a follow up review on the canyon pounder. Ive found some draw backs with it myself
