TWANGnBANG this will get all our bow hunting outlawed
SmiloGaming oh shut up🙄
@@georgezink6338 there are already laws that specifically state the broadheads that may be used.
I'm pretty sure you would need to be standing back a little farther for a compound bow
It was still a pretty cool vid.
The couch arrived in two boxes four days early, which was great because we'd just moved into a new house and needed places to sit. My son and I put it together pretty quickly czcams.com/users/postUgkxitRzxya-XugamYgLwa_2G1gxPg4MCJHa . Another reviewer suggested inserting the seat into the side and I'm glad they did as the instructions weren't clear on that matter. It's incredibly light and slides easily across the wood floor, making it easy to move. It's firm, but comfortable. It will even be great to nap on. I got the gray, which definitely has strong blue undertones, but I'm okay with that.
He’s finally combines the twang and the bang. You’ve reached your final form.

"This did not go off! It did not fire!"
I think the fact that you didn't hear a .357 go off was a big clue.
😆😆 I know right.. OMG really .. Thats crazy bro .. Oh shit its raining ..
Those tips need an actual mechanism of some sort..spring loaded firing pin
I really don't see how that would be good for hunting. Seems like it would cause waaaay to much damage to the meat and you'd end up throwing away a big portion of your kill.
Exactly what I was thinking. Add some lead, burnt gunpowder, and random debris from arrowhead and bullet casing to your freshly harvested meat. Seems like a good way to taint your food; in other words: a waste of money, time, and game.
Don't you think that the lungs is the best kill zone. Hardly any meat on the sides of deer. It's illegal anyway.
I think it’s just a novelty arrowhead
terrific analysis 😒
+100 speculation points
I am no hunter,but to me it looks like a waste of a good shot,a good arrow,a good bullet and money.
jason arce I am no hunter but archer and I know how much a .38 round can do, you have my total agreement and high five
jason arce i am a hunter and i totally agree. wouldn't bother at all with this, inefficient and i wouldn't feel comfortable using it on an animal.
+alex hernandez 'You' wouldn't feel comfortable?
JackIsNotNormal I. WOULDN'T. FEEL. COMFORTABLE. KILLING. AN. ANIMAL. WITH. THIS. ARROW. BECAUSE. IT. WOULD. BE. TO. SLOW. A. DEATH. D-O-E-S T-H-I-S H-E-L-P Y-O-U U-N-D-E-R-S-T-A-N-D ?????????
***** a hit from a normal arrow is a slow death, the hunter lets the animal bleed out. The purpose of these arrow-tips are to insure an animal is downed from the moment of impact. That was what they were designed for.
I think the strongest message is that ballistic gel is NOT an analog of an animal body - it provides a proxy that can be compared for penetration measurements, but it isn't a usable experimental medium for tests such as these.
I also think a .357 blank, facing backwards, with a firing pin ahead of it that impacts the primer when the nose of the projectile deforms might provide a viable explosive head that would incapacitate a large animal, but I'm not sure that wouldn't fall under explosive device or some such under NFA rules. And I think it's an open question whether or not an arrow's velocity is adequate to provide the deformation needed.
Interesting test!

Charlie Brown mmm maple syrup trees
Whoever sold you that crossbow had a wonderful sense of humor.
I have personally never used this product but from the reviews, it turns out to be more of a flub than anything else. For starters, the lack of a barrel means that the gunpowder would not have much space or time to properly burn at all. I have always said, that the key to successfully hunting big game with a bow, is having an excellent quality broadhead. Two bladed or three bladed, with adequate sharpness and penetrating point. An arrow functions the same way as a knife or sword that is thrown at high velocity, and you want the cutting edge to be extremely sharp.
I conceal carry a bow mag. I carry it on my back but it barely prints under my red satin cape.

Killing animals with a bow is stupid. Is it for fun? where is the fun for the animal; that feels the pain? Are you a good shot? I hope so for the animal. Most of those "hunters" are not. :(
Rocktron is Back How do you kill the animals you eat, or do you pay someone else to do it for you?
This idea of having to rely on something to explode to kill the animal, that doesn't even work that well if you don't have enough resistance to make the round go off, that's not very "humane" is it...
I killed a buck in its tracks with my bow hit the heart and both lungs bows kill very quickly.
Young Sandwich Yeah, I think that's why he said "as long as your animal has a piece of particle board inside it..." I doubt he's any more impressed with this gimmick than we are.
I'll address all of your questions:
Killing animals with a bow is stupid.
More stupid or less stupid than spending 9:51 watching a video on a subject you disagree with? This is, of course, assuming you watched the entirety of the video (which is the defining factor in whether your not you've earned the right to even have an opinion).
Is it for fun?
Rather.
where is the fun for the animal; that feels the pain?
I was shot once by a stray bullet while traveling in Texas. Albeit a bullet and I lived, it was not fun. I doubt getting killed with an arrow is any more or less fun.
Are you a good shot? I hope so for the animal.
As indicated by the 9:51 you spent watching this video: yes. It seems he is an adequate shot.
Most of those "hunters" are not.
You'll excuse me if I have a hard time buying into your theory that "most hunters are not good shots" coming from someone clearly anti-hunting. It's like me telling you most gun-ban advocates are excellent marksmen.
Maybe try freezing the watermelon and allow the outside defrost a little bit so the center is still frozen so you get some penetration before it hits the hopefully harder core.
Bill Flint That is a fantastic idea! I'll do that anytime I try something like this again.
***** the point is to make it hard enough for testing.. a deer is already hard enough, dont need to freeze it dumbass.
***** The point of shooting the watermelon was simply to see it blow up for fun as I mention in the video.

Twang and Bang. Literally.
I could see this being good for hunting bear or cape buffalo, or something else that can hunt you back. Stick this into a bears hip bone, knee or ankle and you've got yourself a big animal that can't charge any more. I doubt it would make it past the skull though. Bear skulls are stupidly thick. And as for a cape buffalo? Forget about the head. I don't think they even have brains, just a huge ball of bone and sinu. They run off of a windows 95 comp they keep hidden in their fur.
+Radar Really I commend your comment good sir.
+Radar Really Only go for kill shot (vitals) on a bear... they will charge you with three feet, or two, or one... if you don't kill them.
+5winder
Never heard of a bear charging with a paw / limb blown off before...
“No, this didn’t go off... “ with fingers right on explosive cartridge... KABOOM!!!
If the primer isn't set off by the initial impact it's unlikely that it will go off afterwards. That said, I'd give it a couple minutes before touching it myself.
Thought crossed my mind too.
@@williamsmidt5391 a mistake in the making, god stupid.

Had me cringing in fear when he pushed the round clear. Quickly realizing the video wouldn’t be available otherwise.....stopped cringing......and started crying in pity for poor folks who’ll be tempted likewise. Bad example there, Bud.
Great test bud! I just did my test on them today......SAME ISSUES! I even used meat!
Keep it up brother.
-Andrew GY6vids
Looking forward to seeing it. If you haven't done your voiceover yet, you might mention that bowhunters do everything they can to avoid hitting meat and that this head is designed for hitting the vitals in a deer or hog, which are much softer. That why I was especially frustrated that it was so hard to get it to go off in gel.
Are u checking the primer? Try shooting a tree? Once they do work you’ll also find that without a barrel there is no power behind the bullet itself on powder. Try making a barrel design so the bullet can gain momentum and power and see what happens 2⭐️

I wonder if different rounds or primers may fire easier.
thank you for doing this test fire video. it saved me a great deal of time and money I can honestly say I would not purchase this product after what I seen.
Quite literally twangnbang.
That's absolutely hilarious! I wish I would've thought of that before doing the video. :)
TWANGnBANG I thought the same thing and I would've guessed you were going to mention how your channel is about both things that twang and bang but this one does both lol...
That's awesome. The forward force of the explosion stopped the arrow from penetrating as deep as the previous two, even though you increased the force of the arrow.
"Wow that's impressive! I can put my fist inside of that!"
Remember people, context is always important.
"thats alot of penetration from a big plastic thing"
8:15 "Thats impressive I can stick my fist inside of that!" Says the groom to his bride on there wedding night!!!!LMFAO
that is an awesome idea. good thing to have if you were ever in a situation where you needed to draw attention away from where you are.
I made a exploding dart/bullet before , it won't explode if you shoot ground or something soft , if it did explode ! The dart sometimes shoot back to me . Mean your arrow will flew back to you . So be careful ...

Rodney Armstrong you sir are a genius !
Great video! I really thought putting the hide in front would have done the trick using just the bow. I haven't seen any videos from users that would make me run out and buy these things.
Thanks! I think they had a good idea modeling an arrowhead after spearfishing powerheads, but the performance just isn't there.
That looks to be almost completely useless for hunting. However, it has redlined my inner Rambo/bow/gun geek meter. I am not a big fan of crossbows but I think that one is pretty damn cool.
Keep up the great videos!
Yeah. This product is a gimmick. Having a round explode inside of an animal would foul the meat you're trying to collect.
Yep. I was hoping for performance more like real bang sticks, which are regularly used to kill sharks and alligators, but alas, this just didn't deliver.
I'm not a fan of elitists or snobs. ;p
I mean let's just be honest with ourselves anyone who's seen Rambo first blood part 2 and watched him shoot those exploding tip arrows always dreamed of being Rambo shooting those exploding tip arrows so I think that's what's going on here it's our inner Rambo that's wanting to be....well John freakin Rambo.... LIVE FOR NOTHING OR DIE FOR SOMETHING!! HOORAH!!
You look like such a nice guy holy shit
The army was testing a pistol with mechanical similarities to the bow mag at one point, except they were using bullet sized rockets. It sucked in testing, so they never approved it.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gyrojet
thatotherguy27 The Gyrojet was a neat idea.
TWANGnBANG those actually went into production. Good question, where is the gyrojet? Maybe the Geneva Convention deemed them to be too cruel for war.
More likely that the ammunition was too expensive to manufacture. I think there were civilian models, too, but they just didn't sell.
thatotherguy27 thanks for the Wiki post, it was a good read. My old edition of the shooters bible didn't have nearly as much detail back in 1976 when I read about the Gyrojet. It looks like people invested and lost millions due to flaws in the mechanical design and disregard for produceability. I suppose that history repeats itself .. repeatedly.
thatotherguy27
I forget the name of the pistol but there were so many problems that it was a
joke. You can still find them from time to time at gun shows but the ammo
is nonexistent any more except in museums or private collections as oddities.
Back in the late 50's or early 60's I was able to see one of the Rocket Pistols
tested. Range was not good, Accuracy was a joke and it was not very well
though our or designed at the time. Hammer hit the front of the round
driving it back to the firing pin. the hammer fell forward to release the round
when it ignited. it it would have had an electrical firing system it might have
worked better but I doubt it. Another folly that failed.
Did that tip have the word ACME written on it? I think I've seen Wile E. Coyote use that against the roadrunner once. Didn't work for him either.
Lol

Have you ever punched a horse? It’s like hitting a brick wall.
Damn, it's been a while since I hit a horse.. brought back some memories thank you
Isn't that kinda redundant? I mean, a fixed broadhead arrow and a well placed shot will kill it and you also don't have to deal with shrapnel in the meat. I've bit down on shotgun pellets in meat before, not fun.
Who said it's for game? I'm sure it works just as well on humans.
Still redundant when you could just get a pistol that uses the same caliber.

+BiloxiElizabeth
whatever
As long as your animal has partical board in em 🤣🤣🤣
& double hide
That’s because it wasn’t designed to go into ballistic gel which absorbs a lot of impact. Its meant to hits thick hide and meet resistance in the form of muscle tissue and bone.
“Wow, I can fit my fist in that!” Seems like I’ve said that a couple times before 🤣
time to revisit the windshield test or a car door. I bet a low velocity shot would still set off the round. My question with that application would be could you get a hit on the target behind the glass or door, with the bullet.
I thought of that, as well. I'm not sure I want to buy another pack, though. :)
TWANGnBANG Haha, I'm with ya there.
"This did not go off this did not fire" half second later..... BOOM! finger gone
Exactly what i was thinking! This man has huge balls grabbing it like that!
my thoughts were the same!
Yeahhhh. Playing with explosives is fun, I would know from myth busters
My suggestion to him is hone the firing pin to a finer points as the resistance that flesh does not provide will not set off the round consistently, a finer points will offset the need for heavier drag.
Bullets have no impact force . A bullet gets is power from gas expansion in a confined space, the barrel.
Protip: if gun bow doesn't work, use barrel on the arrow. Damn, that was funnier in my brain
And Ridge Runner has set us free!!!!, i was going to invest in this company until i read your comment, lets try it out of a revolver and see if it blows the watermelon up!*
So the gasses expand into the body cavity think about it before you try to dazzle with your expertise it's lethal as hell
I've been watching your guy's videos for a while now you do some interesting things.
+SuperTime2Change Thanks!
If Arnold could do it in Predator than why not
Rambo did it
I made one years ago. The and of the arrow was glues to the back of .38 or 12 gage. Shell. The primer is set off by a finishing nail I side the arrow shaft. The nail slams into primer when the arrow hits target. Works every time.
You mentioned that most of the damage being caused by gas expansion, what then is your opinion on using a blank cartridge. I have a lovely scar on my shin from a misguided safety demonstration from army cadets when I was 14 I know blanks have power close to an object.
richard hollick The best round would be a blank loaded to max capacity.
Meant to hit bone to detonate not just soft material
These are pointless, there's no compression so the gas is barely burning at all. It's a novelty item.
Taylor Howard "those arrows are pointless" huehuehue
The arrow penatrats the animal then the 357 fiers
Never used a bang stick have you?
I think thats the point to be pointless
Yes, as much damage as a firecracker.
Fun fact: it took 9 minute and 52 seconds to shoot 2 arrow
So this arrow tip is pretty "pointless" ... pun intended. Just use a gun or real arrowhead instead for a more "humane" kill.
yeah exactly. its cool but not needed, also ineffective
Have you people even hunted before? I have for over 30yrs. Had broadheads zip completely through the kill zone. Sometimes the hide will close up and no blood. And other times it kinda explodes. And fall within 10ft. Things are not always humane.
Nobody:
MrTwang: I can put my fist in that
so pretty much just a crappy gimmick
Dustin Walters
Nope. Just not for hunting animals you intend to eat. Imagine hog hunting nuisance javelina in Texas with it. It’s for when you want to blow shit up with your bow, not hunt for food.
Now make a 50bmg version so the Gun-grabbers can claim it will “shoot own airplanes” and “it’s a baby killing mass murdering assault bow-and-arrow!” ... 😒🙄
@Dan Wang so would a gun
@Dan Wang nope I think zombie tissue is real soft it be through em and hitting brick wall before it would discharge, gimmick schtik.
Pretty much. Either use a gun or bow and arrow.
Game changer: Use a bow that shoots guns. Or a gun that shoots swords
Hey brother, sharpen the firing pin. A smaller point means more pounds per square inch on the primer. And less pressure on impact will set it off.
A sharpened pin may pierce the primer. Giving two possibilities: the pin misses the primer anvil and the cartrige does not ignite. Or the pierced primer does ignite but the hole in the back of the cartrige leaks gasses out the back.
Yeah I'll just stick to my toxic or rage broad heads
Yeah.this seems stupid.
You had me at twang&bang!
Federal primers are softer than usual.
Maybe you should try them.
werre2 I was going to say that maybe those cartridges have hard primers.
Personally, I've found most ammo that states _Critical Defense,_ really is not as good as the same grain hollow point. 👀
1:38 Best result achieved, by striking bone. 😜👏 2:43 supporting evidence for bone strike.
4:08 EUREKA! 👏👀👏 Thank you for dispelling my theory. 😜
Now let's put a silencer on the exit of that .357 on the tip of the arrow. Perfect for stealth!
Ribcage.... That is what it most likely requires to discharge the round.
Or a head shot
The Liberty Cause yup, its more likely to go off with bone resistance
With a small dimple on the primer is it safe to actually touch that round don’t have a lot of experience with firearms but I’d be very very careful of that particular round
Not really wait a few seconds if it dosent go off it won't sometimes with old rounds or guns who's firing pin isn't right it may take a few times
Exploding heads are called powerheads and I've heard them called that for 50 plus years but we hunt shit that can kill you like gators, gig them, pull them in when they're tired and hit them with the bangstick with a powerheads. I've NEVER had a fail to fire, this guy plays with toys.
I said that in the video.
According to my knowledge, you can give predators a hard time with exploding arrows...
So the conclusion seems to be it doesn't work and ruins your arrows.
More marketing of crap fir the sheeple.
This guy's too edgy to appreciate your triumph. Keep it up. You'll perfect it sooner or later.
no one hunts jelly that's why it doesn't go off
animals are more rigid

I guess this is useful for home defense but if you hunt with it you would just ruin the meat. Also, I you have access to bullets, why not just use a gun?
kurasa otaku Both the meat issue and the "why not use a gun" question have been addressed. Scroll through the comments if you want to see my answers. Thanks for watching!
TWANGnBANG Okay thanks, I'll check it out tomorrow. :) I'm going to bed now, it's 11:30 PM where I live.
No offense, but I'm not unzipping the bow in the event of a break-in. Maybe if I had ramparts and was repelling Mongol hordes...
In the meantime, I'll stick to many many rds of 5.56 and an angry swarm of .40 S&W to follow up with.
Johnny I. I get your point but Dutch self defense laws are fucked up, if I shoot someone with a legal gun I will go to jail for some fucked up left-wing reason. If I shoot them with a bow then I would most likely get away with it as long as I don't aim for any vital organs. I know, it's retarded, but that's just the way it is until the right wingers are in power again.
Unbelievable. Things are just weird all over. I get it. The world is a softer, gentler place these days. But in my line of work and in my personal life we have a saying: Rather be judged by twelve of my peers than carried by six..

Not much wasted time talking but direct to the point.....

It won't burn the powder all the way, basically just set of the primer. Waste of time.
Awesome review on these terrible arrow tips. I want to like these things and use them, but they just seem so terrible. I would never use hunting though because my G5 heads are much more effective and humane.
Cordjunkie Yep, any popular broadhead will be more effective than this at humanely killing game animals. Thanks for watching!
YexaC You should see how a pack of coyotes do it. They start eating before the deer is dead.
If you are ok with eating deer but not willing to take responsibility for bringing it to your plate then I am at a loss for the hypocrisy of your comments.
TWANGnBANG
That's the way I think about it too. If you can be more human than the average predator, you're doing a good job.
Calling something basic logic and replying in a condescending way does not do anything to strengthen your ideas or prove your point.
What a wonderful way to magnify the suffering of the animal...
It would probably kill the animal a lot quicker
Vegan spotted
Beta male
Ok... your insults make you look children.
Simple fact is this would more often than not let the animal live for just long enough to run away for a bit while in excruciating pain as a large chunk of it's side has been blown open and burned away, really bleeding slowly to death is a more peaceful death than this.
I have nothing against hunting, but this is ridiculous.
All ethical concerns aside it's also an arrow you can't reuse, will scare away any other game in the area, the explosion will ruin a good portion of the meat and the contaminants from the blast will ruin even more of it. This arrow has all the downsides of hunting with an unsuppressed gun and all the downsides of hunting with a bow, and none of the benefits of either.
@@robadc it looks like a waste of resources, and I looks like It would pollute the meat.
I would think you would get the same effect with Hilti impactgun loads, the kind meant to drive nails into concrete. I don't know how legal these would be but deffinetly fun target practice. Love to see a 20 guage slug version oh yeah.
Funny but useless. Thanks for the video.
I was expecting a Dukes of Hazard style explosion.
shoot at a tree you have a lot of trees around you
It wasn't tree season.
TWANGnBANG plus that'd be treeson
+freakinpro he wouldnt be treeting it nicely though would he?
That’s a federal offense to shoot at trees when it’s not tree season
We used to take a spent 38/357 casing, a strip of caps, and a cheap wooden arrow( point cut off) and make a bang stick. But we'd fire beyond a thicket we knew deer to be to spook them towards us.
I don't think it's a good idea to do so. According to laws of momentum: the bullet will slow down and push the arrow in backward direction. That's why it does not penetrate much in ballistic gel
but it fires a projectile out of the bullet
@@magiccat3772 Yes, but for bullet will push the arrow backward. And it will not penetrate much.
but it fires a round point blank, so even if the arrow did not pen because of the back pressure there is still shoot shrapnel off the tip that continues into the vitals.
the arrow has enough mass and momentum for it to not get blown back so it will still fire the shrapnel/projectile off the tip into the target causing more damage than an a hunting tip
Those were originally designed for GRABOIDS!
😂🤣 trimmers ha
Poor design.. If these were designed differently they would be lethal...Even though they are illegal for any type of hunting. If the Bow Mag 357 came with an adapter to stop the blow back pressure...You know that pressure that is popping your nock off every shot... Big Plus... Other part that would work better is the arrow tip that holds that cartridge must be made with enough material to take the chamber pressure of the round they are using.. I just brought this up because years back some friends from a community I was in used something like this...only different and they worked...
ATF said any support for the cartridge would be considered a barrel, making each BowMag a firearm. This would make them all but unsellable, so the manufacturer resorted to the design you see here.

TWANGnBANG I looked at the verbiage of what ATF calls a chamber or barrel and the design that I saw used fell under neither regulation of law. Where most of your test done with Aluminum or Carbon arrow shafts? The method I saw that worked was on a modified Carbon Arrow Shaft.. It is hard to explain fully here...as you know... But weight compensation has to be great because of bullet/shell weight... The methods I saw used 9mm and not 357 and I believe this was for weight. See you do not have to modify it to fall under ATF Regs as a chamber or barrel for this to work... You just need something to stop 80% of back blast...
ugsisr I have nothing to do with this design or this company. You see in this video the totality of my experience with this product. However, I did interview the designer extensively. As I understand it, they submitted a different design to the ATF which included support for the cartridge, and the ATF said that would make it a firearm. If you want additional details or to convince them of a design change, you'll have to contact BowMag directly.
The design can be improved greatly on those gadgets,an actual fitted collet around the cartridge would be more than lethal on a Large size animal.
