I was lucky enough to be part of this hunt along with a buddy of mine and I will post a report when I get a chance. Heith pretty much covered it as far as Mof and his whole team from the PH”s, trackers and his family just making it a wonderful experience. Heith and his buddies were a blast to share camp with and every evening was full of great stories around the fire. I don’t know if this trip can be topped for me but I will definitely try again in a few years. Kudos to Scott for putting together this hunt of a lifetime.

Double Bevel
I went with their standard, first edition Broadhead.
They’ll have my business for a while!

Thank you, will more than likely get a couple of the test ones to try out... even though I need more broadheads like I need a hole in my head
