I was just watching this video to get a little more knowledge on what I want my arrow setup to be. Watching you Michael. Wow how the years have flown. It feels like just yesterday we were young. I have been a fan of yours since the monster buck vhs days. Good luck this year. Crazy to think we are now almost the old guys!!!
I'm running standard diameter arrows with 100 grain inserts and 100 grain broadheads. Zinger fletches and lighted nocks... Total arrow weight is 505 grains and 17% foc Totally DEADLY
What broadhead did you go with? That setup sounds perfect? I’m at 125gr point / broadhead, 100gr Ethics Outsert on a 300 spine Element F5, with 4 blazer vanes on a right helical. 470gr, 17% FOC. Love em.
Thank you for pointing out that people need to shoot what works for them! That is the set up that works best for you. I get comments about my heavy arrows but that is what I have found works best for my bow and draw length. Like T bone I have spent years trying to build the perfect set up going from crazy light arrows to super heavy and for me personally a 605 grain arrow with 19% FOC works best with my 31.5” draw shooting 74lbs.
I have two different broadheads I am running. The first is the German Jager 175 grain and second is the Swacker 150. Jager is on the Easton Axis 300 spine with 75 grain outsert. Swacker is on blood sport onyx with 60 grain outsert. Also there is a rage 150.
Learn how to use a grain scale. Set the arrow holder on the scale then push the "tare" button. It will zero the scale then you can set the arrow on and get your exact weight. No math needed.
Not very familiar with Alta arrows , but if they are putting out spine charts like so many other arrow companies do - in my humble opinion those arrows built are under spine’d for any newer bow with more than a 65# draw weight.
I’ve done Ranch Fairy’s point weight method and nock tuned before. I don’t think i’ve ever needed to insert tune anything. That particular build ended up being a 507gr Black Eagle Carnivore.
@jedhuf7548 wrong. if ends are not squared fieldpoints especially broadheads can and will wobble can 9 out of ten times its not a perfect cut right off the arrow saw
When installing inserts does it really matter if you take the nock out before gluing in the insert. To prevent pressure from push inserts.or is that a ole wise tail
If your nocks are solid yes it does. So brass inserts are solid and that pressure you're making from pushing the nock in can make it back out. The aluminum insert has a hole so when you push the nock on there's no pressure behind it
I came to the comment section lookin for them. They seem to have settled down here lately which is bizarre. Used to see at least one of them everywhere.
america has alot off varieties are builds for their critters they kill. works for them wel, heavy light doesnt make much differencel. not suitable for some countries due to massive difference in game size. proves though certain game alot off arrows are way overbuilt. elefant arrows for a buffaloes, elk arrows for whitetail. do what you feel best, faith in your build makes you confident and miss less (trade secrets to success)
Shooting a 340 spine arrow with that much weight up front and your specs is REALLY under spinning that arrow. Really accelerating the carbon breakdown when shooting it over a shorter period of time. Making it dangerous to shoot over time and will make the arrows inherently inaccurate. Shoot a 250 spine with that same setup and it will shoot better. My 2 cents. For others to follow this could be dangerous on their part. Physics doesn’t lie.
I’ve been watching you a long time and I still remember when you started traveling and you got that old Chevy great job. Keep it up Michael Waddell.

absolutely loves these video's from you & T Bone man! please keep them coming
Finally someone shooting a standard diameter arrow.
All I prefer!
Exmark mowers all I run!
Now you just need you a Elite Ethos. You will love it!
That’s my choice this year
I have the base model Basin and it's a shooter. Super smooth draw and no vibration been shooting it for 2 years now and have no complaints
I'm still shooting the ol tack driver E35.
Thank y’all!
Great information! Waddy is the best in the business 💪
So I’m not the only one that says “AIRUH” great video man!
Same. I would have to change the entire way I talk if I pronounced the "ow" at the end lol

What type of broadhead do you use and how heavy are they? Also how heavy are your inserts?

Miss you guys love you guys!
You got some good form. T Bone better watch out.

Awesome product review
Blitzenberger 😂😂 love it
Thanks for sharing this video with us.
Awesome video man and I can’t wait to meet you in a couple weeks in Bloomington
Going to be a good time!
What’s in Bloomington? Is that mn? Expo?>
@@butchalvarado6092 Bloomington IL there is a hunting expo
I can't math too good. I tare my scale with the holder placed on top of it. It automatically takes it into account when you get your weight.
Bring back DA TORCH!!
Waddy your comment section looks like Cinemax After Dark 😂. Good luck this season. I’ll be in Marion County GA trying to sling some arrows.
Man it’s wild out here ain’t it? Trying to stay on top of blocking all the spam
Good luck this season.@@BoneCollectorTube
Bring back DA Torch!!!
Love the content. But you are dont insert tune? No hate.. love how you express this is what works for you.

I can't be the only one that thought he was ranging the lawnmower at first 😂
I’m surprised you don’t square the ends.
If the inserts are a tight fit it’s really a nonissue
He squared the end when the cut was finished by rolling it against the cut off wheel
@@jedhuf7548 Exactly!
@@jedhuf7548 not squaring the arrow is nonsense jeez
@jedhuf7548 wrong. if ends are not squared fieldpoints especially broadheads can and will wobble can 9 out of ten times its not a perfect cut right off the arrow saw
What's the part numbers to the insert set-up you have, I want to buy the same pieces?
I’ve never had a full length shaft brother 😔
era
Give em the heavies 🤘

I’m digging the bow
ifle rack did you build it or where can a guy find it?
It’s home made
This is gonna trigger The fairy’s
I came to the comment section lookin for them.
They seem to have settled down here lately which is bizarre. Used to see at least one of them everywhere.
I don't know how in the world you getting a flat trajectory out of a 485 grain Arrow out of a compound bow
What’d you do to your fingers on your right hand?? That’s got to funk up your fretting for sure.
I think your bow is the quietest bow I’ve heard.
I'm still trying to figure out what a era's are
😂😂
Sharp sticks
2025? I know you’re not waiting till 25’ 😳
What was your total weight up front Mike?

Where are the fairies at because he doesn’t run a 700 grain arrow
What about the outserts t bone uses. What’s really the purpose
Outsersts make an arrow way stronger and can add more weight to the front
Maybe I didn't hear it but what is your TAW?
He said 485
Thank you for focusing on what kills the animal. Next stop, broadheads. Oh boy!

No way you shoot 26 in arra
Or pull 80# lol
Mine is 26 to 26.5 carbon to carbon with a 28" draw
Da no somebody tell the man what to say terrible
