I shoot a Pearson Spoiler at 78lbs.

I shoot 30" 2216' s with a Wasp Camloc tip.

Not sure of the arrow weight, I' m not a techie. I just know they shoot great. I tune with paper, etc, but never used scales. I' ve been shooting 35 years, since I was 6. I shoot barebow and fingers, instinctive.

I' ve taken 18 elk in the last 18 years. Several have been pass throughs and all my shots have been under 40 yrds.

I think the biggest mistake made is thinking that there are just no elk in the country. No bugling(you wouldn' t believe how close a bull could be without you hearing there bugle. Just a small ridge and a breeze makes a big difference), no new sign, etc. So they basically quit hunting hard and give up. Of course you want to be in an area that shows lots of sign, butthese are big animals and they cover alot of country fast. Never say never. What was arren yesterday could be filled with bugles tomorrow. I can' t tell you how many of our bulls are taken on the last day, the last hour.......my wife says that I do it on purpose. And you know what, she' s right. I don' t quit.

Shot my 6X5 bull with a Hoyt Tenacity set at 70 lbs., Beman Trophy Hunters 70-90' s with outserts and 100 grain Muzzy 3 blade broadheads. Currently shooting the Hoyt Vortec at 68lbs, Easton ACC' s and RM Snypers. I would simply change to Muzzy' s be mighty fine.

For a pic, go to www.asatcamo.com under ASAT believers, picture of the bull and story.

would love to know if you a 410 grain TOTAL(ACC KINETIC) with 100 grain MONTEC G5 is enough out on my Legacy at 68LBs?


AM I TOO LIGHT I would rather be flat and accurate than heavier and unsure! AM I WRONG?

If it shoots well for you it is just fine.

I have yet to draw an Elk license but my buddy from Wyoming uses a Mathews Legacy set at 68 pounds and shoots uncut goldtip shafts, feathers with as much helical as he can get, a fall away rest, and three blade 125 grain Thunder heads. He is 6' 5" tall and has a really long draw. Uses this same set up for Mule Deer and Antelope and has taken several of all species with it.

Good luck on your hunt. I' m jealous! Maybe I' ll draw next year.
