what a nice bull sweet archery bull look at this
hey everybody Brandon Mason here with Eastmans' for the last couple years our
crew has been able to use the Bloodsport arrows that kind of made a splash on the
market here a few years ago and besides having tight spine tolerances and micro
diameter shafts all the way up to the standard shaft sizes to really allow you
to select whatever type of arrow you prefer one of the things that makes the
Bloodsport arrows stand out is the white blood ring
we as bowhunters have a lot of challenges to face in the field and
we're really swimming upstream against the odds probably one of the most
overlooked obstacles that we have to overcome is the desire to pursue the
animal after the shot before the animals actually expired and that could have
disastrous consequences one of the things we need to do is exercise great
patience after the shot and really be sure the type of hit that we made now
sometimes if you don't have the luxury of a camera with you a videographer with
you where you can't go back and analyze you really need to replay that scenario
in your mind and examine the sign that's around you now hopefully you'll be able
to find the arrow that passed through the animal if it did such a thing if
that is the case that's the best sign that you can find for the type of hit
that you may know if you find obviously that deep dark red blood you got a heart
shot that animal is going to expire very quickly but not as quickly as a double
lung hit animal that pink frothy double lung blood that you're going to see on
your arrow is a sure sign that animal is going to expire within seconds really I
usually say 30 seconds or less on a double lung hit that anima'ls toast in
2016 I was able to arrow a pretty decent antelope in Wyoming on public land as
soon as I released the arrow I was really afraid that the shot was too far
back and it was a pretty hard quartering away shot and the arrow did end up
entering farther back than what I had hoped but we weren't sure exactly on
where it had exited just by looking at the animal and thankfully the arrow
zipped right through the antelope and we were able to find the arrow and just
looking down at the arrow especially because of the white blood ring here on
this Bloodsport arrows using in fact I text a friend of mine who works at
Bloodsport arrows a picture of that arrow within seconds he texts me back
and said that animals in deep dark trouble and so we knew that it took out
the lungs on the opposite side some other hunts damn pack our arrow to a
nice moose up in British Columbia in the same year it was a similar type of
scenario the animals quartering away hard and the arrow entered a little
farther back than what we had hoped but it exited perfectly when we found the
arrow along the trail hours later after giving the animal enough time to expire
we knew that that moose had indeed expired a lot quicker than what we
expected so that's this week's tip just beat
sure that you exercise a lot of patience in the field you use the best equipment
that you can and you know we're pretty blessed to be able to use these
Bloodsport arrows that have that blood ring indicator that really give you the
peace of mind to pursue that animal in the timeframe that you're supposed to
pursue them so that's this week's tip and remember to show great patience when
your bow hunting in the field
