I love TAP. I have my EVL 34 tapped out, cable guard, string stop, front and back bars on their titanium QDs. The back bar mount is actually reverse threaded on the pitch axis so the recoil of the bow firing won't loosen the pitch of the bar. Functional, well priced, simple gear.
They are extremely durable. I always order extra foc outsert, stick it a tree, just unscrew the arrow, replace the $2.50 outsert and keep shooting. This is my third season using the rampage and x impact. I not going to change.
Sweet video! Glad you liked the gear and keep up the great work with your channel. 🤛🎯
I saw a guy at TAC in Park City hit the steel rhino 2 separate times with different Black Eagle arrows and they didn't blow up. No collars, just insert and field points. Very impressive impact strength.
Yah but WHICH Black Eagle arrows was he shooting because that's where the difference lies. The thing is this has always been the case when concerning an arrow who's mid 300 spine comes in under 8gpi. You just can't make such a lightweight arrow while still being that stiff and not sacrifice durability. Easton has the Torch/Hexx which carries the same rep and from what my local dealer has told me the Victory XVs are actually worse than all as he's had several pull out of the target almost in two pieces where they broke right where the insert ended.
I shoot Gold Tip Quantum and Airstrike in 250 spine at 9.3 and 9.6 gpi, which is similar weight to spine ratio as the x impact. They've proven to be extremely durable with everything except the steel target. I'm pretty sure that guy was shooting 300 spine in whichever model it was.
Wasn’t me, I haven’t had a chance to shoot a TAC yet. In my experience, the BE Zombie Slayer arrows seem pretty tough. 300 spine are 9.2 gpi. I have the 42 grain brass insert, but they offer a 100 grain insert, and I think maybe a stainless steel?
@@bmills231 Yah I'm sure there's plenty of ancedotal evidence out there that would contradict what I said. Even from me as I shot the DaTorch exclusively for 5 straight years starting when I got my first Spyder back in '13 and everyone that broke was a situation where it should have. However those light gpi arrows didn't get the reputation out of thin air. The broken arrow bucket at the shop range is made up mostly of these.
Just checked my EVL 32 and I also have grooves on the factory guard. I just ordered a new TAP guard. Thanks for the review and the heads up
Just watching you install that half out system with an Allen makes me instantly realize how awesome black eagle is...
Ordered some a few days ago. Seemed the best choice for FOC. thanks.
One small detail about TAP's that's often overlooked is they give the customer the choice to put their logo/branding on the stabilizer and even them it's just a colored sticker. Sure the QD'd and mounts have a TAP logo but it's quite small. Folks may thing that insignificant but there are some of the big brand stab manufactures who's branding is so large and loud that deer are going to start learning english from them
Been shooting the BE deep impact arrows for about 6 years. Love them.
I tried the FOCUS outserts but hated how long they are. They add an extra 1" to the arrow.
Wish BE would start producing their stainless outserts again
Sweet video, as always buddy! Thanks for that shoutout!! Of course, I tell you about TAP and then you get all the free gear!! 🙄😑🤣🤣 gonna have to pick me up that string stop finally, looks pretty dope on there. Every time I shoot my EVL in front of strangers I always get the “wow that’s quiet” comments. I tell them I’m a TAP ninja 🥷 Also gonna have to try those Black Eagles, they look slick! My axis 5mm just aren’t holding up to my pre-shot bending routine like they use to… Looks like I’m shooting a banana! 🍌
I just got my first dozen black eagle rampages with the focos system. I have PSE NTN 33 set at 70 lbs and 29” draw . The arrows are 492 grains total weight 21% foc shooting 273 fps . I have never had a arrow fly so true. I also just ordered a TAP cable guard system thanks for the information on this product I had the same issue with my factory guard also.
X-Impact 250 spine with a hit insert and Iron Will protective collar is the best arrow setup ive used. Killed 3 deer this year and blew threw every one. Zero damage to the arrow.. Broke one and that's when I missed the target and hit a massive rock. Very durable arrow!
Look forward to a further review after you’ve played with them for a while
I've experienced the same thing in regards to spine. The Easton 6.5s I bought last year were by far the worst I've experienced and it was suuuuper obvious why while watching a dial indicator. I've found some brands/models, several far less popular ones I might add, that have excellent spine tolerance across the shaft like you described with the x-impacts.
I shoot the black eagle rampages and I've been super impressed with durability compared to the previous brands I've shot
Love of those companies Sam from tap is a great guy I also have those same arrow but with the 100 focos system witch has the stainless collar
I’ve been shooting the x impacts with the stainless steel focus system for a year now. I have shot my practice arrows through a wooden fence multiple times and buried them in a tree behind the fence (not sure what this says about my shooting skills 🤷🏼♂️). Im still shooting the same arrows, didn’t hurt them a bit. I would rate them as the best hunting arrow ever produced. I’ll likely never purchase a different arrow to hunt with.
I am a die hard Easton fan. I was shooting full metal jackets 5mm 340 spine 460 grains. Now I wanted more speed I shoot the Easton axis 5mm 340 spine 430 grains. They fly great and I use fixed blade broadheads.
This is a great video....thank you once again...I'd like to add that thanks to your review on the PSE DRIVE NXT I went out and got one the only thing I've notice is that there is no quiver for it or maybe I'm just not looking in the right place ...if you can please help cause I REALLY LOVE MY PSE and it be a shame that there's no quiver for it...
I shoot black eagle rampage with 0.001 350 spine and had no problem and I shot in to a limb and did not break or Crack theses have been the best investment in arrows that I have bought
Arrow tuning video with the Black Eagles???? Just a thought, Great content dude!
Ironwill makes inserts and sleeves that are made for the measurements of the x impact. Just in case y’all wanted to run somethin different other than the BE outsert. FYI
Shooting the black eagle x-impacts would be my second choice of arrow to hunt with. But Im liking there's victory rip tko's!!
I’m shooting 300 spine BE Zombie Slayer arrows with the 42 grain brass insert. I busted one by “robin hooding” it, but otherwise have stood up to my abuse very well. Might change up next year…. We’ll have to see. Keep us posted?
Nice
Can you go over that battery pack on your bow sight?
I shoot X-Impact outserts just glued on(versus the screw in collar system), is that setup new?
I’ve been shooting BE rampages for years and love them and the company. That said, I use the RAM spine tool and I have absolutely regularly found ends of my .001 arrows to be far out of tolerance. Sometimes up to .003 or even a little past so check them all people! I can also definitely find the spine with that tool and mark it. I don’t think any arrow company can whole heartedly say ALL their shafts maintain .001 throughout. That’s not a ding on BE but let’s just be realistic. Get the tool, check them all, and straightest end gets the nock factory labels be damned. It’s funny to go to a bow shop and have the guy say “you know you nocked the wrong end right?” Hence why I bought a press and vise and learned the skills myself.
Its quite possible they only batch test arrows, not each individual one. At least Im sure most arrow companies would test that way. Finding info on how they test is not easy.
@@NPC-fl3gq oh I’m sure and honestly I don’t really care how they test and batch but I’ve heard in more than one place that BE guarantees their printed straightness for the whole shaft and I don’t see that on their site so I don’t know where people are getting that. I also don’t expect that from any company because it’s not realistic and I don’t hold it against them. I don’t think that a company rep saying that will sell more product either, especially since anyone who has measured a dozen arrows know it’s not true. So I’m my opinion saying that is actually worse for them because it just comes off as a snake oil salesman who will say anything for a sale.

Agree. I spin all my arrows (and I re-spin my old arrows to see which ones are durable) and would never trust anyone's marketing department. Engineers and material designers must hate all the BS that gets thrown around.
At the end of the day the only way to garantee a good arrow is to build it yourself - and I don't see that ever changing.
I have never had any issues with durability on my x-impacts.
Go with those over the axis way better arrow !!!
CAN YOU TAKE A LOOK AT THE STAINLESS VERSION OF THE FOCUS….
AND SPIN THEM WHEN BUILT AND AGAIN AFTER SHOOTING.
THNX
They spin fine. I used them all last year. The problem with the focos system is if you shoot left helical the set screw will back out over time so you have to keep an eye on them. I never busted an arrow, even shooting at steel challenge targets but I did bust the sleeves a few times. They are very thin towards the back of the arrow. The front of the sleeves are nice and thick
Does the insert go past the FOCOS sleeve?
In my experience I would hot melt the screw in place… with a left helical that screw will come loose… otherwise I love that arrow…
Your shooting PSE now mate??
Love your reviews, but was disappointed you didn’t talk much about the TAP products. Was very curious if you noticed a sound or vibration improvement with the guide rod or string stop. Hoping you give an update after you’ve used them longer.
Didn't notice any difference in sound or vibration
I have the cable guard as well and didn’t notice any changes in sound, draw cycle, or vibration. However, it definitely isn’t getting thick grooves like my factory cable guard so I still think its worth the investment.
Looks like hi-tek it is
Black eagle are the best premium arrow for the price !!!! Shooting .001 zombie slayers 350 spine
Black Eagle is legit. I’ve been shooting the Spartans for the last 3 years and love them. Can you screw more weight into the back of the inserts for those?
Yah they sell 10 20 30 brass weights for fine adjustment by the dozen.
K, dumb question....... why shoot micro vs standard diameter? I'm new to arrow building, just learned my bow. What is pro and con of diameter , spine , length for novice arrow builder. I'm a 30" draw 70# v3x33
Less surface for the wind to push on from the side during flight and less resistance when passing through an animal.
Please consider Jackie Shai as your spokes person..
Did you hang up the Traverse?
So now I need a T shirt to shoot good?😃
When you pitch a product you should include the price
What's the GPI of each of the arrows?
Pretty light, I think 300 is 8.2 gpi
