I am looking to possibly change from a 125 grain broadhead to a 175 grain broached for this fall’s elk hunt. But I wondered about how it would impact my arrow speed, momentum, etc., so I asked chat gpt, and was pleasantly surprised by helpful information. Prompt: Compare the speeds of 2 arrows, 1 weighing 700 grains shot at 265 feet per second, and the other weighing 650 grains shot at 270 feet per second response in attached pictures i asked several variations of the question, as well as how the velocity of the arrow would change with different weights. here is a link to the entirety of my experience. https://chatgpt.com/share/67d19733-3580-8007-9042-21c801a05784 I think many of us might find this useful as we think about related archery topics. I’m going to keep playing with it when I have time and see what else I might learn.

Interested. I’ll be flying in to phx on the 27th for a Coues hunt. If you still have them at that time, let me know.

I have my wife’s Mathews Passion that is virtually brand new. I bought it for her about 8 years ago thinking I could get her into 3d shooting. I have 40-50lb limbs on it now, and have 50-60lb limbs as well. It’s been shot less than 100x. I believe 28’ draw. It’s black with blue accents, like the top bow in this picture. If you’re interested, let me know.

I think I might have some. I’ll look around.

Somebody in AZ should file a FOIA request to G&F regarding the elk and antelope draw. Would be interesting to see all the emails and internal conversations about what happened. Especially if they got hacked and aren’t letting that out.

Thanks for this info. I think the benefit to my LT license would be lost if we put in together I suppose. I’m not too worried on the bonus point issue since my buddy has 2 points also. I’ll call G&F for clarification.

After 40+ years as an AZ resident I recently moved out of state. Before I left I purchased a lifetime license. I now have a buddy I want to apply with for the elk hunt next fall. The question is what happens if we apply on the same app? Me with my lifetime license and him as out of state? I sort of assume we would both have to be in the out of state pool. Wondering if this is right, and if there are any other options I’m missing.

Awesome. Nice buck!

I think the area around turkey butte is good for deer. You may see both species. It is really nice area.

Great info. I am looking at the Pelican 1750 right now. It’s expensive but looks like it’s solid. And I’ve heard differing thoughts on the ammo. It should be in its original box inside the case with the rifle? Or it should be separate?

I have to believe this has been talked about before, but what advice would anyone share on flying with a rifle? What cases are worth the money? Locks? Things not to do? Im flying back to AZ to go to Mexico in January and have not gone through this before. thanks, Twoguns

Very cool. Makes me think of an old song... https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=5tdj2_KSGJ0
