Toxic broadheads for black bear? Thougts/advice?

Hi all I'm baiting bears for the spring hunt and thinking about throwing toxic's on my bolts. Never hunted bear before and I was wondering if they'd be a good BH choice? Input from people who have harvested bears with them would be greatly appreciated! :)

Kinetic Energy calculation

Hi all I'm having a hard time calculating approx KE and was wondering if I could get some help. The arrows in question are 289 grains without the BH'S. Broadhead choices are 100 grain toxic's or 125 grain slick trick magnums. Any help would be greatly appreciated

Re: Arrow weight decision

I decided to go with the 16 inch 288 grain zombie slayers! Seemed like the best choice from advice and research. I hope they serve me well this bear/deer season. I'm thinking about using them with 100 grain toxic's or 125 grain magnums :wink:

Re: Arrow weight decision

Would the above be a good set up with 92gn brass inserts? Instead of 110gn using 100 or 125 grain BH's

Re: Arrow weight decision

Predator55 I will be using 1 of 2 BH's: toxic 100 gn., or a mechanical in the 125 gn weight. So length of arrow makes no difference weather I'm hunting deer or bear?

Arrow weight decision

Hi all, I'm thinking of getting new bolts for my Micro 335! I'm an archery newbie and can't decide between 18 inch 300 grain zombie slayers or 16 inch 288 zombie slayers.. Any input would be greatly appreciated.

Ps. They will be heavily used for deer hunting and possibly spring/fall bear

Re: Coyotes with Xbox?

Nice shot bullseyez! I agree with you, a good coyote is a dead one! I used to see 10+ deer at any given time where I hunt..now Seeing a hand full over a week is like winning the lottery :(..I think I may give it a try and make myself a hat or some gloves for my troubles :wink:

Coyotes with Xbox?

Hey all I'm just wondering who hunts Coyotes with their excalibur's? Seriously considering try to take a few in southeastern/ central Ontario. Some input/advice from people who target them would be greatly appreciated since they seem to be driving the deer numbers in my hunting areas down :x :|

Re: Total arrow weight for micro 335 users??

Where do you find "aftermarket" arrows? Basspro only seems to have quills in the size needed for the micro. Sorry for the noob questions im super new to archery. Also what is the longest arrow I can safely use out of the micro 335? Thanks in advance for any help.
