Building Heavy Crossbow Arrows - Very Large Game

This video will be of interest to fans of heavy crossbow arrows for large game where high arrow momentum and a high FOC% (Forward of Center) is desired. Using the system shown here, it is feasible to quickly build strong arrows in the 700 grain to 900 grain range (and even greater) if desired. The objective is pass through shots on large game (buffalo, 1500 lbs.+) There is no substitute for a razor sharp broad head. One of our top flight hunting customers at Kodabow has achieved pass through shots on Cape Buffalo and Hippopotamus using Kodabow Crossbows and heavy, high FOC arrows. We subscribe to using heavy arrows and recommend reading reports from Dr. Ed Ashby on elements that contribute to arrow penetration. Once a heavy arrow is in flight and encounters obstacles including wind, bone and tissue, the heavy arrow tends to decelerate more slowly and just keep going as compared to lighter weight arrows.
