Title: Vital Impact Arrows
Post by: JR825 on July 02, 2019, 02:48:26 PM
First archery hunt this year. I have been using the Sportsman Warehouse brand all year for targets. Are these arrows not good enough for hunting? I don't mind switching to something like a FMJ or any other product on that level but wanted to hear thoughts about stepping up before I do it. thanks.

I killed this buck and a bear last year with them no problem.  From what I understand they're basically gold tips.  All comes down to how they shoot and the broadhead on the end

Thanks for the response! I am feeling pretty accurate with those arrows and thought for my first time it would do the trick. you have any input on broadheads?

I used the montec 100 grain, I liked them, but also sure almost any broadhead will work as long as you put it in the lungs.  :tup:

If you're shooting them well then there's no reason to switch over but if you're like me and like buying hunting gear then why not you can never have too much stuff 😆

my daughter killed her first deer last year. 600 spine Vital Impact arrows with 100 RAD Madman head. Right behind the front shoulder at 13 yards, not a pass through with 40 pounds, but the broadhead DESTROYED the offside ribs. Deer spurted blood 18" out the entry side!  :yike:  I'm buying another batch of Vital Impact arrows for her. They're on sale now.

They are all I shoot.  They are made by Goldtip and branded for Sportsmans.  Pretty sure they are around $80 with the GT logo on them.

I killed my bear in my avatar 2 yrs ago with one.  I run a shuttle T 100grn broadhead, clean pass thru @27yrds.  no damage at all to arrow after hitting dirt.
