Hi

I would like to know if my equipment is fine for large plains game.

MY EQUIPMENT:
Bow : Diamond Razor Edge
Arrow : Easton FMJ 340 500 grains
Speed : 210 FPS
KE : 47ke

I would also like a list of what plains game animals I can harvest with my bow.

Replies will really be appreciated

Cheers
Dox
 
Dox,

What is your draw length and what pounds are the bow set at.

I am expecting a lot more speed out of the Razor edge but it depends on the answers...
 
Add a quality cut on impact broadhead to your heavy arrows and you are good to go for any plains game.

I shot kudu, gemsbok, zebra, impala and warthogs with my bow. I had no problem with penetration on the larger animals.

I shot a matthews switchback set at 58 pounds with 450 grain arrows. Montec broadheads.
 
I shoot a 23.5 inch draw length
And really honestly shoot 67 pounds

Very important ! Make sure your arrows fly straight and that your shot placement is flawless. Keep hunting distances to less than 25 y if possible. Make sure your Bow is quiet. Good luck.

See you are from Denmark - see quite a few Danes where I stalk in Scotland - great hunters.
The Harkilia stuff works well in Africa - I have a bit for use here in UK.
I am again looking for 600 Nitro dies preferably RCBS 1 inch. The set I purchased previously are 1 1/2 inch and do not fit my die. Another member has graciously taken them off my hands. If anyone happens to have a set of 600 Nitro Dies that will fit my Rockchucker Supreme RCBS press, please shoot me a message and thanks in advance for any assistance you may have to offer!
I have not posted any items for sale on this forum and will not every put anything for sale. My account was hacked and I've worked with the admin to get things shut down.
