I love watching RF vids... he is thoughtful, analytical, and used actual data and facts... PLUS a little humor and sarcasm. This is the kind of guy you want to just hang out with and listen to stories and chill...
Weird how happy I get when I see a new ranch fairy video pop up
I don't even have to see the content before hitting the like button. Anything from RF is worth watching, for entertainment or knowledge or both.
I shot my Cape buffalo with a 70# bow, Rampage 250 spine, ethics outset 215 gr, and a Bishop 315gr single bevel. Total arrow weight about 880. Did much research and watching the RF, great setup.
What's your arrow length?
Arrow flight aside… Higher FOCs have always been king. An Easton 2213 etc arrow with a decent 125 gr broadhead out of a bow shooting 180-190 fps would blow through a deer or black bear like hot butter. I’m glad to see high FOC and high total wts coming back. This is def not a fad.
yep - the old ways are now fast and light
If you want to bowhunt
Dr Ashby said he would find a setup that works on cape buffalo and hunt EVERYTHING with it, think about THAT for minute!!! Hunting any big game with one bone splitting rig is pretty awesome!!!
With a recurve.
@@jowho9992 YES SIR!!
@@southboundeightyone4958 What was the Doc's draw weight?
@@southboundeightyone4958 Ashbey shot traditional equipment with a draw weight of 70-80 pounds. If he shot a 900 grain arrow at 150 fps he never got past 45+pounds of K.E. and .59 momentum.
@@southboundeightyone4958 I doubt Ashby's 900 grain arrows ever flew that fast which means he most likely produced even less momentum.
Great video old man! The same (as you know) applies to 550 to 650 grain Whitetail hunters. TAKE THE RED PILL MY FRIENDS!
Hopefully she gets the chance to go and would love to see her hunt and results. 🏹👍
Hi Troy, wish I could proclaim to be one of your dusters but i can't.
I can however declare proudly to be fairy dirt. Yes i am a poor man and had to steal your knowledge and use it to solve my crossbow frustration . year's of frustration. Shooting bolts basically in the sky. I have totally missed deer at twenty yds. and a brutish black bear at forty- five yds. I was embarrassed and stopped telling my friends of all the missed shots i was talking. Not to mention all the lost bolts.
I first took your advice and got fixed blade heads. I chose G5,s for ease in sharpening. I went with 125 gr. I had three different bolts to use. The bolts that are recommended by manufacturer with 100 gr. practice point fly deadly to thirty yds. Scary after that. I added 125 broadhead and it barried in target. took vain off one tore another.
At this point i new I , (we) we're onto something. But damn i can't afford to lose a bolt each shot.
I had some seven bolts that had been given to me years ago. I hated them to the point i stopped useing them. Shooting them was like trying to sight in a rifle with a bad scope.
I decided what did i have to lose. Now i always had used plumbers tape to help toon my flappers so i had to go dirty to add more weight to broadhead. I add a stainless steal lock washer. You're not the only one to explore. I was amazed. I shit you not my group at forty yds was crazy . I even shot from standing position. Shot out to sixty yds. Deadly in sitting position.
Sorry this is long but needed. I harvested three deer this year and if you will allow me to send photos i believe it shows everything you have taught .
The first 41 yds. 3 blade fixed . bolt enters shoulder and deflected off shoulder traveling through deer along backbone and out opposite top off round. Bolt was half barried in ground ten yds. past deer.
The second was a 60 yd. Pin shot i had to geuss at distance. Bolt breaks front shoulder and penetrates heart. This bolt brakes but i believe it broke from the deer running more than point off impact. Third was only a 23yd . shot i was hunting Turkey and forgot to switch bolts. So basically i had a flapper 100 gr. No lockwasher. I can't say for sure if flapper opened in flight but i would have missed at thirty yds. Bolt hit high shoulder low neck and then only penetrates 10 inches along backbone.
Would you like photos ?.
Mega adult arrows for some seriously beastly animals hope to see a follow up video be cool to see how well it holds up should def stay together
Cape buffalo dispatched
Always interesting, thanks RF
Thanks for making this video
Thanks, hunting season is getting closer. Building time is here! Thanks for the inspiration.
Such a fantastic video! Thank you.
I like larger single bevel but that bh is sick...I love it
🤯 I just remembered I've seen several Paleolithic points (I flint knap) that are flaked to a single bevel. They flaked a bevel on opposite sides. It just now came back to memory. I'll be tracking some videos down for you assuming that's of interest to you and your smart friends. 👍
Awesome content as always!
Never shot a bow, what a great informational vid.
Very cool stuff right there. Thanks for putting all this together. I've got the inserts and waiting on Sirius arrows now getting ready to start the process ol son
Currently waiting on my ranch fairy test kit as well!
Well you've been my smart friend for a couple yrs now and my whitetail arrow looks pretty similar. Its so much fun when you aren't scared of the shot. Thank you rf for what you do
I'm VERY interested in this. It's just the beginning of so many more things to test and explore
Totally agree. Would love to see a post hunt update. Hopefully she gets her shot.
with the ferrule diam of that broadhead, looks like you could still go with a .246 arrow shaft, and still achieve the low-friction shaft pass-through you're going for.
I believe so.
This is super cool!
Good stuff RF😎
I appreciate your content.
Thanks RF!
I am supposed to go to South Africa in July for the 2nd time. I shoot 80lb+ Bow and have used 650-grain arrow last time with pass-through on Kudu, Wildebeest most of the way, Eland most of way until hit the opposite shoulder. Should have gone heavier with the giraffe went to the fletch. This year running mid -500 something Gold Tip Airstrikes. I am assuming I am going, but who knows. Currently not planning for Cape, but want to add it to my bucket list. When I go for Cape will go for ~1000 grain arrows. Thanks for the timely info.
As a mech eng, the chamfer still creates a stress concentration point on the rear end of the insert. A radius would be one step improved beyond it and is negligible in terms of machining. The principle is sound though
Ya you're right, that chamfered end does not reduce the stress riser.
Clear words 👍
This reminds me of josh bowmars setup, punched the heart three times with arrows! Big animals those cape buffalo are!
We intend to pass through.
Not wound it to death!!!
Bout time you came out with another vid , hurry up for the next one
Good info
Hi Troy, make sure you don't get any glue on the taper at the back of the insert, epoxy on the taper will eliminate the desired effect.
The taper won't help the way he thinks anyway. The stress riser is still right at the last spot the arrow touches the insert. Unless the arrow bends at a 45ish degree angle, the chamfered end won't touch anything and will therefore for do nothing. I'm not sure who told him that would help.
29 views in the first 14 minutes after upload. It's a movement, friends. Thanks, RF.
Can we talk about Ted Nugents Cape Buffalo hunt? Back in the early 80's I believe and damned if he wasn't armed with a heavy FOC setup as well. He mis-hit when the animal took a step as he released. The arrow was in the air long enough that a heart point-of-aim made for a diaphragm(or farther) point-of-impact at approximately 40 yds. The video is available on YT and a very exciting watch.
Ted Nugent is a garbage human.
@@Dynamice1337 You can think what you like but your statement says a helluva lot more about you than it does him.
@@thesickhorseranch1930 I do think what I like. I think that Nugent is a low integrity hypocrite. He's a spineless coward and a bully. His communication style is a lot of one sided sniping from the sidelines with no real skin in the game. I'd rather tell him to his face, but I don't really have that option. I speak up when I see something that doesn't sit right with me. Ted Nugent fits in that category. I could think of 100 bowhunters I like better than that clown.
Hey Troy! Great Video as always! I was wondering how using a glue on broadhead would change the insert tuning process? Cheers!
The glue allows you to get it straight
Using hot melt - no threads
Would love to see this setup on some kind of test....ranch fairy line up 3 hogs and shoot through them lol
Already done with 750 at 43#
And 1,035 twice with my normal bow
The pigs didn’t make it
Why not have an insert with a conical shape inside the arrow?
You should get some of the bishop archery foc king arrows and test them out
Dang good video!! There is a ton of info and it all makes perfect since… like I’ve herd Troy say before, a lot of us are just going back to our archery roots,shooting kinda the same things we shot back in the day because that’s all there was back in the day… I know most of us aren’t shooting Cape buffalo, I get that… And yes, your mechanicals with todays bows will shoot thru a whitetail with the deer standing broadside… But!!!! What if it turns, or you hit a limb, or the deer doesn’t come in broadside? This setup or one similar allows me more options, and a higher percentage of finding my deer because I’m not worried about “BONES” stopping my setup. Stop arguing Ford verses Chevy and just think about the data for a while and what options it can open for you as an archer and a lot less sleepless nights waiting till morning for buddies to show up to start looking for your deer.
Subscribed.
@ranch fairy I believe you said hot melt for the direct bond just curious why not epoxy for more durability?
Thoughts on the kudopoint contour+plus?
Troy I need a shirt that says "I'm planning for plan B"
And I'm going to say it again, ever since I went to a outsert collar I never splinter a arrow tip breakdown on a carbon shaft and I shoot hundreds of arrows at stumps each season we're before collars mushroomed tips over and over, it a fact I have been stump shooting for 40 years now and as far as game goes swapp is the name of the game and I always used extreme heavy arrow heavy FOC so I had that right forever and my opinion every carbon arrow should have outsert collars, amen
I’m currently building my 750 grain set up
They make a glue adaptor that glues into the arrow and not screw in. I feel after you can still unscrew the broadhead after you glue it.
Just saw that it was a glue in adaptor. My bad.
what your thoughs on crossbow thanks
Hey Troy,how’s it going.Another good vid
Awesome… same concept as with whitetail hunting, just heavier more streamlined arrows.
How do you maintain the sharp broadhead with is glued to the arrow shaft, won't that limit the ability to sharpen it with the shaft attached to it?
No - I sharpen it on the arrow
When you are bare shaft tuning an arrow, how do you tell if a tear is a result of the rest or the nock needing to be tuned?
Tune one arrow with the rest. Then tune the other 11 arrows with the nock
I do agree that most guys care more about how their set up looks, instead of how their set up works.
Fact
What color is your thumb release 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Clasic!!!!
Looks like you could fill the insert tip with lead.
The Valkyrie system is hard to beat as well - pretty much the same design.
yes sir 315 grain Ashby or tuff head for me!! Deer cant handle it .
Even though the corners are champhered for compliance...for reducing shear stress, I would break every corner where a potential weak point may occur...with a radius. Put it in a disposable Al insert and chuck it up in a drill, and work it with a fine file. Maybe overkill, but who's to say, and onty takes a few seconds once chucked up.
Couple of questions. 1. Does the length of the insert inside thr shaft improve structural integrity versus a shorter internal insert? I use a glue in/glue on insert but it’s not very long inside the shaft. (Ac glue in/glue on adapters. I always cut my sleeves 2” which is about 1/2 or so beyond the back of the insert in the shaft. My worry with the short adapters was a hard angled hit and I blowing put sideways. However as you stated every time I break an arrow it’s right behind that sleeve. (Has not happened in an animal yet).
2. Have you seen any breakage due to levering of he inert breaking out of the shaft on hard angle hits?
I love the ace because they are really cheap, but I wonder about those angled impacts and if my longer sleeve is doing me more harm than good in that situation.
Love the channel and all of my arrows are designed for Cape buffalo even though I “only” hunt NA game
We don’t know for sure
Ashby foundation will find out
Should you consider cutting the sleeve so that it ends over one of the thicker portions of the insert? That way it too is supported by the insert thickness inside the arrow shaft to help prevent possible breaking of the arrow shaft. Sort of like the insert bevel concept you make in the video . . .
Shortening the sleeve was a bad move.
It should go PAST the end of the insert. By design. The further back.. the more resistant to shearing it will be.
By shortening, there is nothing stopping it from shearing directly behind the insert.
No, you’ve just created a hard shear point on the exterior, which will cause a fracture. This is why the insert has a bevel on the factory end. After you cut it to length, you are supposed to sand the cut edge back to a smooth chamfer to allow for flex.
I am building new arrows at the moment. I have 10 of the 12 factors. The only two I don't have are the tapered shaft and single bevel broadhead. My total arrow weight is 650 grains and 24% foc.
What's your arrow set up?
@@hall0341 Goldtip Kenetic Peirce 250 spine with 135 grain Ethics Archery stainless/aluminum insert with a 200 grain piont. Four fletched with 2 inch feathers.
I was hoping your arrow had a lowwer GPI than the vap rip tkos that I use. I'm at 648 grain and only 21 foc
@@hall0341 I don't use lighted jocks. I can never get them to tune. Are you using lighted nocks?
I'm using nockturnals. I haven't had an issues with tuning them, they are about 12-15 grains heavier than the standard nocks.
I'd like to know how the Hunt went and how well the arrow worked out.
Results in July
@@RanchFairy Awesome I am curious, I'll keep an eye out for the video.
@@TyrantExterminator1776
It’s already been done thousands of times. Interestingly, Lower draw weights (under 70) and 750+ with adult arrow and single bevel is performing equally with higher poundage. “Drag equation” math stuff and we “think” impact paradox.
Don’t worry. The ashby foundation will find out.
Where did you get those wojo arrow inserts and what do you think of about a sand fill 240 spine 6mm arrow for dangerous game arrow
Tuffhead.com
And who in the hell gave you that idea? It’s terrible for tuning and arrow flight!! Message boards undoubtedly
Go to ashby Bowhunting.org. Or follow my example here. And yes - she got her buffalo.
@@RanchFairy th-cam.com/video/ZzlS9_YDssA/w-d-xo.html this video game me the idea for the sand filled arrow.
The idea of filling a carbon with sand got bandied about on trad forums for a while, when we all knew heavy arrows were great but the data hadn't firmed up about FOC particularly, yet. Saw guys adding lengths of aircraft cable to the old pultruded carbons, too.
I wouldn't do it, but I DO like drilling the pith out the front end of my bamboo arrows for the whole front 10" or so, and filling them up with homemade 3/16" hardwood dowels. Takes care of durability, impact strength, and FOC at the same time.
Until all the good collars and long brass insets came out I wondered why people didn't add a carbon inside a carbon, or a dowel inside a carbon and use an out-sert.
Pretty cool. But I must say you have talked me out of the flapper. But for my deer set up I just took a step back to what I used to use, and that’s a 125 grain muzzy. 25 grain outsert. Plenty for deer.
They have bones too!! Hahahaaj
If you flared the collar even a little bit even like 2 degrees on something like a jewelers ring resizer or flare tool it would leave room on the backend for arrow flex
==
I shoot 830 grain wood arrows with single bevel heads for Deer
Whatcha got that is that heavy? Hickory? Locust?
For a while I could get raw maple shafts that were 440-460, but they were a FAT 23/64.
I'm shooting through elk with a 740 gr, TAW, single beveled 2 blades, 21 % FOC on bamboo shafts, and I love them!
Hey man I donated to the Ashby foundation last night
Show the process of tuning the arrow
for cape buffs, I'd have tapered shafts, would like to hear how it was decided not to include this aspect of Ashby's recs.
Because I decided due to availability and time constraints
11 factors perfectly flying.
would this be best set up for elk ? or the new arrows in latest videos.
Oh to would be killer on elk.
I recommend for elk - a goal of 600 grains
But let your bare shaft testing show you what to shoot

Troy glasses or a pain in the ass when bow hunting I have trifocals ouch oh well I just deal with it when we get over 40. I hope we here how she does with that setup on pigs and the Buffalo 👍✌🏻🇺🇸
Hey Troy big fan starting a build soon had a few questions I just picked up a Mathews atlas 30” draw 70lbs I was thinking about going with a 250 black eagle rampage do you think this is a good arrow to start with I’m looking to run 140 grain spinning half out insert and a 200 broad head my other question is about the spinning inserts yay or nay on that read what ethics has to say about them seems legit but I see you always using static inserts have you experimented with these?
th-cam.com/video/cUADCf1VKFw/w-d-xo.html
Your arrow is fine
Insert (how does a spinning insert solve any flight issues?)
Point is fine.
But I’d follow the directions on that video
@@RanchFairy thanks for the input let you know how it comes out keep doing your thing brotha I enjoy your content throughly
RF is just too good
Just want people to be successful
We all just see this guy trying to help us
My understanding is the min legal requirement in SA is 80lbs draw, 80 ft/lbs kinetic energy and 750 grain arrows for buffalo?
No idea. But lots of people do it with a stick bow and lower poundage bows - it’s truly the arrow
@@RanchFairy I am not disputing that - just saying you do not want to land up in a jail in Africa due to equipment that does not meet legal requirements - referring to bow poundage rather than the great arrow you putting together. For buffalo, I prefer my 375 H&H or bigger.
This is the exact same arrow he would build for a whitetail. This video should be called. "The arrow I shoot all the time."
There aren’t deer arrows!! Ha!
However for the big stuff - you can’t just 6.5 creed more and pray.
There’s a reason they make 416’s
Ranch Fairy 🧚♂️! Troy ! There is an archery 🏹 company that is rather interesting called Valkyrie Archery that seems to have some interesting ideas/ developments as to inserts/ collars arrows broad heads and the like. Have you heard of Valkyrie Archery? What is your experience/ opinion of them?
Shortening the sleeve only hurt your cause. The point of the sleeve is two fold.
1. Is to strengthen the shaft end from exploding and allowing the BH from splitting the shaft.
2. Is to move the shear point further back down the shaft.... Past the insert edge.. (the part you tried about being be angled)
That angled part wouldn't matter if the sleeve was left longer than the insert.. they are designed to be longer for this reason. AND the further back that sleeve goes, the more effective it will be.
Shortening it retains the anti splitting up effect(mostly)
But loses the anti-shearing behind the insert effect.
So - IN testing.
When we have sleeves without an internal post or a very short internal post and longer sleeve as you describe. “Shear point back further”
the SHAFT shears at the end of the sleeve. Same effect as 5 degree taper on wooden arrows.
The only reason I added the sleeves was to keep the point from possibly pushing backward into the shaft on a hard impact.
The Direct glue on insert system was already better than any screw in system.
@@RanchFairy yes. I would expect the shearing to happen directly behind the sleeve. 👍 But, the force required to shear will be increased significantly. The arrow will always fail. But increasing the durability, and moving that shearing point rearward is generally considered a positive.
Thanks for replying bro 👍
@@RanchFairy definitely better\more durable than screw in inserts. 👍
@@ryans9029 forgot to add, the internal post on the direct bond system in that arrow is about 1.25" long. We've had very few shafts want to shear at the end of the internal post, but when the sleeve is longer than the internal post, its like a pinch point.
Man those Cape Buffalo look to be 48 inches wide on TV. If I was a betting man you could have taken my money.
I've never heard of Ed Ashby before. Lol
Check out valkyrie arrow systems
But does it fly
👌👍👍👍
Hey RF, have you heard how her hunt went?
Don’t know if Covid changed it
Just curious...how close to the Cape Buffalo, do you have to get, to get a pass-through?? Cuz that is a BIG animal......
Most are taken between 20 and 35
Correct arrow system solves
@@RanchFairy that is scary close to one of the most deadly animals in Africa
@@davidayres9865 some people live differently.
@@RanchFairy hopefully as a hunter I will get there one day
The tapper is a step in the right direction but rhere is still an edge. The perfect way to do it would be a rounded transition as it is found on a spitzer bullet.
Talking about watch making.
Exactly. Considering the carbon, chamfer is the same as square edge, when the arrow wall meets the chamfer it’s already broken. Easton has taken this into account in their new titanium half-out that has rounded ball head. Even better Valkyrie uses longer shank and rubber o-ring with the rounded end to distribute the force even further. Considering they also make a glue in adaptor for centerpin system, that’s what I’d choose here.
Better to have smart friends ?....THAT'S why I subscribe to the Ranch Fairy ( hopefully we're friends....) 😏
uh oh, thank you
Has anyone setup like this for 🦌
tons of fairy dusters.
Great info Troy, However, I disagree with your idea of a shorter footing being better to decrease lateral break issue. The longer the rear lever (basically entire arrow behind footing) the greater chance for a lateral break. Look at an extreme situation where the footing is like 12" long. That makes the rear lever much shorter. Think about how difficult it would be to get a lateral force great enough to snap the shaft. Although I personally made the 2" footings your holding just as a common place to start with footing size (creates great strength with minimum, if any, stiffening affect), I personally shoot an 8" footing with smaller double footing to bridge the only possible weak point, (end of shaft and behind broadhead). Any potential break point is way up the shaft with short rear lever. This creates a crazy bone and bomb proof shaft at 910 grains, 33.?? % FOC, 300 TuffHead propelled from 70@31.5 Black Widow. i use that arrow for everything I hunt and it blows up everything I hit, stem to stern in quick fashion and in one piece for next victim.
What shaft are you using?
@@montuckyman4982 GT Ultralight 300 Entrada. I cut 1/4" off each end to get me to 31.5" of carbon and it supposedly creates a shaft closer to .001 in straightness. Then nock and business end components gets me plenty of room for draw.
Thanks to RF I already have my 625 gr 31.5" setupfor hogs. After watching this I'm wondering what arrow setup would it take to punch through a car door? Just curious.
💪🏽🇺🇸
I'm wondering what do you think about filling arrow up with sand.
Never done it
@@RanchFairy one video of cape buffalo archery hunt, that hunter had his arrows filled with sand.
@@RanchFairy I'm trying to find that video. I find that idea interesting. I guess it helps that I'm an mechanical engineer. I'm a beginner with a huge B, and learning a lot from you guys.
@@sergej23kv Never gonna do it.
Load the front, and perfect arrow flight.
the latter will be your problem. At impact the sand will likely blow the nock out. Just like the weighted tubes.
@@sergej23kv Stupid. If it goes sideways and weighs 10,000 grains.
Its sideways
That looks like a mean arrow
counter sinch that footed an put it into the collar
I see you have arrows on your bench that have Zinger fletches on them why dont you do a video about them I use them and love them.
Working on that -
Magnum arrow for the win.…
Someone should make a tungsten incert around 3 inches long with a ball on the end... Just guessing should weigh close to 300gr.. Then no problem with foc and they can make a collar about 2 1/2 inches.. Will make a very heavy arrow.. The you could also use mechanical broadheads also..
Mechs still have a HUGE energy issue at impact - we are gonna study this - but the mass may not overwhelm the WIDE impact energy dump?
Will it help - probably. We don’t know yet
My GUESS -
Blades and ferrules get destroyed by the significant increase in momentum. BUT BUT LISTEN
It’s a GUESS. We shall see
@@RanchFairy i dont trust any that expand on initial impact.. However i feel more secure about those that expand after impact... I like the design of Schwacker 125gr... 2 1/2 cut diameter...

Well, I’ve had trouble back in the day with that particular head
When it hit shoulder meat on big hogs
(Because you have to shoot them there - vitals are funnY)
Anyway
I shot one about 220 (I have a scale).
The shoulder meat was 5” THICK before it hit the ribcage
Well, it deployed about 2” in - like it’s supposed to / by design, before the ribcage
But the meat was 5” - BONK - stopped like it hit a wall.
I know that’s never happened to anyone else
On earth - but 2 weeks later I shot him with a hand sharpened adult broadhead - he had a terrible day. 60 yards and down in A cloud of dust

Fact
Looks like she will be at up. 60lbs, every single minute factor has to be greatly considered. Cape buffalo are up there with Grizzlies and Kodiaks
The moment of truth. I hope she doesn't get the jab so she can go. That's folly.
My plan next year is to build a 700+ grain arrow for deer just because I think it would be phenomenal. Show all my twizzler flapper shooting buddies that it works lol.
im shooting 635 this year, its a trip getting used to how slow they go, especially compared to friends shooting sub 400 grain setups
I have been shooting a 705gr for deer for the last three years and they are awesome. It is not even fair. Here is my setup. RX1 Ultra @29" w/ 73# draw. Easton Procomp 250 shafts cut to 28" w/ 180gr Ethics steel insert and sleeve. I bounce back and forth between 200gr maasai and cutthroat. They fly out of my bow at 225 fps. This probably wont be the setup for you but it is a deer killing machine for me.
@@michaelvstheworld3680 seems like an awesome set up. My set up for this year is going to be and I might add or minus depends I’m still tinkering. As of right now it’s a bowtech insanity cpxl 70+ pounds gold tip nugent arrow 300 total of 670 grains. Wanna shoot the foamer but I might go with the cutthroat. Ranch fairy is awesome at getting back to me at least when I message him. Freaking awesome.
@@markhilliker9844 for the money, the Cutthroat line of heads are the best out there. Again, for the money. Just my opinion.
