Thanks for all the great feedback. I’ve tried the Alaskan and Safari shafts and the spine is too stiff for my bow. When I cut the Sitka to 30″ it flies perfect with the 75 gr insert and 315 gr point (bare shaft). With the Ashby head on a 4 fletch arrow my arrow flight looks pretty clean. I’ll admit the Eland I lost was poor shot placement (about 2 inches too far forward). I hit exactly where I was looking (it was a 12 yard shot), but the problem was lack of knowledge of the animal’s anatomy. I hit the shoulder and the arrow bounced right out. I lost a huge Gemsbuck with what looked like a perfect shot at 15 yards. Hit right behind the shoulder, but only got ~12″ of penetration. I’ll see what I can do to increase weight on the front end further. Thanks, Rudy
