Traditional Archery Tips - Broadhead Aiming
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 21 ต.ค. 2024
- This week Clay Hayes is back with some more traditional archery tips, showing how to aim a recurve bow and arrow using the broadhead as an aiming reference point. The method used here is a blend of instinctive archery and gap aiming method. What's different about this archery technique is that you can use the top edge of a vertically oriented broadhead as a reference point to reduce the perceived gap at the archery target. This can make for a much more consistent aim.

Thats a great tip for ailing broadheads. Thanks
I’m sure everyone watching appreciates the clear audio in you videos. A cut above the rest for sure.
Right on, Clay. You don't waste words, and nothing but straight forward advice every time I watch any of your videos. Thanks for sharing, man.
Another great tip, I am amazed how quiet that bow is nice job
Hey Clay, I love all your videos as I am a new recurve archer hoping to start deer hunting this year. I live in the city and there are no archery clubs nearby, so just watch videos and practice in my backyard. It would be helpful to see you training a newbie on form and helping correcting any mistakes they are making.
and now I am redoing my arrows. Thanks for the great tip Clay. Keep it up.
Great advice to help close those gaps down,I'm going to try this
Lovely bow Clay. Helpful tips too. Keep em coming.
Excellent as always!
Thanks for sharing 👍
Stay well and take care🙏
Great tip. I'm never gonna use it as I shoot target archery, but that's great for you hunters! Love it
Excellent tips👍👍
You sir! Deserve More subscribers!
Beginner here! What kind of tab do you use/recommend? I recently switched to three under and I am considering trying out tabs but not sure where to begin since all I have used is a glove. Love your Videos!
I prefer one with a slick cordovan leather. I made my own.
Great stuff big fella - I love seeing you shoot those home made bows. Can't wait for some hunting stuff!
The season is just around the corner!
@@clayhayeshunter Thanks Clay. Yes I keep forgetting that you guys in the States are locked into all these strict seasons and tags and stuff. In Australia here, we have open season and no limits on so many animals. Here in the desert where I am we have camels, donkeys, deer, pigs, goats, foxes, rabbits and a few more. I guess them all bring ferals, the government just want them all eradicated. What will you be hunting Clay when the season opens?
Elk and whitetail deer mainly.
Love your videos awesome tip !
You sure do make good videos Clay!
Awesome Bow, almost with a couple of Siyah laters built in already, could be onto something there!
Great Tips as usual, multiple paints down the back with distant precision, Haha.
Unreal show, bet Your shed smells good to, fresh air an wood shavings, beautiful.
Very much enjoyed the video Clay. Hope you don't mind but I would like to make a suggestion for a future video.
I would like to see a video on the differences between wood and fiberglass bows, and maybe pros/cons to each. I can never seem to find a good source that answers this question and I trust that you would have this knowledge.
Interesting topic. It’d be a tough one to nail down though. There’s so much variation in both glass and wood bows between makers it’d be hard to generalize.
@@clayhayeshunter I agree it would be tough. I have been making selfbow for 7 years now and I still have a hard time answering that question.
Clay, so to clarify, are you aiming on the bottom dot, or the top dot?
Conceptually, I understand this method....but not clear if you're play the drop of your arrow, or this is your spot on at 15 yards. thanks Sir, love your stuff
I was aiming at the bottom dot. I put two dots on there because I wasn’t sure what my gap was going to be with that bow. I haven’t shot it much.
Started out in the 70s with trAditional bows then compound then cams and now at 59 with arthritis can’t shoot traditional anymore but love you’re videos 👊🏻
Thanks
Badass bow!!!
Good looking bow like that system
Hermoso arco clay..
Top demais vídeo, amo Arco tradicional, tamos juntos 👊🙏👍
*Clay, what part of the broad head would you use at 30 yards?*
thanks
Is there some type of broadhead or some other tip that
will HOLD and be hard to pull out ?
That is what I need.
I fly remote control foam airplanes that sometimes land in a tree.
I want an arrow with a tip that will pierce into the foam and hold
so I can pull the plane loose from branches.
Use a barbed fishing arrow and keep it attached to the reel. Maybe add some feathers so it can fly a bit straighter.
Have you tried different angles of the arrowhead before? Why do you not mount your arrowheads horizontally? This contributes to the fact that perhaps the arrow flies further or not? I am thinking about mounting a double-edged arrowhead on my arrows. Currently I have much smaller square ones on it. It does not matter how you put them on.
Shooting 3/8 oak dowels I've got a helluva gap, I may have to try this!
I shoot split finger, doesn't help with the gap.
Try 3 under
Clay Hayes I’ve dabbled a bit, it feels dirty. I may evolve to it.
Get dirty!
Thanks Clay for your amazing and wholesome content. My first video of yours was you collecting a elk collar near my neck of the woods. Since then I've watched many of them and will continue too. I have a question for you though and thought a recent video would be a good approach. I recently passed my archery education here in Idaho and will be taking it slow and patient as I already rifle hunt for my meat. I have little to no desire to hunt with a modern bow and I'm considering making one. I should mention I have a torn shoulder muscle and will probably need a lighter bow for endurance through practice than what I would like. My question is there anywhere between my house in Clearwater area and say CDA that I may pull back some privative bows to check if draw weight agrees with my shoulder? Thanks for your time and good luck this hunting season. -Z
The best thing would be to go to a traditional 3D shoot where you could test out some bows but most of that has been canceled for this year. The lowest I have is 45 but you’re welcome to draw it. Shoot me a message or email.
@@clayhayeshunter Thank you will do
True instinctive shooting requires you to hold the bow with your strong hand,and focus with both eyes. Strong eye shooting came to be with sights right handers do not throw the ball with there left hand. and of course constant practice ,and a " left handed " bow
Класс ! очень оригинально .благодарю !
Clay is it important to keep an correlation between single beavel braodhead blade direction and fletching of Your Arrow ? I mean is it important that the fletching somehowe follow the blade?
Yes!
Hello Clay, I have a question. Lately I have been putting a wrapping of thread around my arrows which touches my left index finger when at full draw. This way I have a sort of make shift, silent clicker which acts as a shot-activation queue. I reach anchor, increase my back tension until i feel the "clicker" go off and release. This worked well at first, but now I am starting to anticipate the shot-activation queue and have difficulty reaching full draw. I am shooting well but i fear that over time, i will start developing symptoms of target panic (like not being able to aim before i automatically release the arrow). Is this normal and is there a solution? Thank you for uploading helpful information like this.
It think it’s fairly common when using a psychological trigger. I was actually working on a video today showing something similar. Should be out in a week or two.
Today I find that YT no longer allows user to stop the ad videos at beginning and during your (and others) vids. So it's likely that I will watch far fewer of your fine productions. Sad day.
Try using ad-blocking browser extension like "ublock origins". Takes 1 minute to install.
Sorry to hear that Michael.
Hey clay, love the videos. Thinking about doing Patreon and I’m wondering which option unlocks all the bow building material.
It’s the whitetail level.
Clay Hayes awesome thanks
Do you find that gap aiming is a disadvantage when whitetail hunting
Not at all
@@clayhayeshunter Ok thanks. I'm thinking about trying to hunt with a recurve this year
Clay Hayes what about going back to field points? I’ve always use the silver line of the insert for aiming so it would be constant between target and hunting, but now this makes pretty good sense, I am a hunter first.
I’ve not had a problem going between broadheads and field points. But once the hunting season approaches I switch primarily to broadheads.
I like it Clay. It's hard for me to hold on a deer's knee so the arrow will hit up in the vitals.
It’ll help with that
Broadheads aligned up and down always threw my shooting off. I never could commit to keeping the heads turned that way.
you don't worry about how they spin in the hand? I've always used that technique to glue on broadheads so that the arrow spins true.
You can align them and get them to spin true. They’re no mutually exclusive.
I can't help it, anytime I read the word "Broadhead" I can't help but read it in Joerg Sprave's voice.
Lol…let me show you it’s features
A board with a straight nail and an angled nail at the other end would keep each identical.
How long are your arrows/
About 29 to back of points
@@clayhayeshunter Would a longer arrow make you shoot lower?Also ,I love your take down handle. Are the directions on your you tube or Patreon?
A longer arrow would reduce gap even further. There’s a multi part series on the takedown sleeve on Patreon.
Is that bow for sell?
It could be
И просто .
Killer at 15 yards whoop whoop ...what if you at 20 lol
