Victory VAP arrows - 4 month review

Спорт

Victory Arrows make a range of Carbon arrows. We look at the VAP Victory arrows which are the micro carbon shafts.
I have been shooting VAP now for 4 months and have sold a lot of the shafts and want to talk about my findings.

    Another excellent video, appreciate the thorough walk through. Would really like to see a walk around on all the different arrows you sell. I am from the states and greatly appreciate the broadening of my archery knowledge.

    Steven, I recently purchased my first dozen arrows to build myself and I went with the 2016 VAP Target Sports based on your review 4 months ago and I was super excited when Lancaster put the 2016's on clearance when the 2017's arrived. I was hoping to pick them up for my oly recurve but they didn't have the spine I needed, so I went with a spine that worked for my compound. I made up 6 of them with the 110gr Victory points and 4" Bohning Killer vanes. 4 of them were 10 spots consistently but I've got 2 of the 6 shooting low/right so I will refletch and try again. Since it's my first time building my own, the vanes on a few arrows weren't up to my perfectionist expectations, so I hope that will fix their flight. But so far, I like them! I plan to make up the other half dozen with AAE Max shield-cut vanes to try those. I sub and watch your channel regularly when you put out videos, they are very informative and helpful, thank you! Oh and I tried and am now shooting a 2016 PSE Supra after your glowing review. as well!

    I only have the 2017 which may be different. I have not had any shafts do anything but hit the middle. I personally have 4dz of the shafts. My partner has 2dz. But I sell heaps of them and no one has had a problem. The Supra is just a great bow. It will be easy to sell if you ever want to sell it. Thanks

    I'm a compound target archer & have shot many differing arrows over my decades in archery, immediate previous being Easton Carbon Ones. I recently swapped to the Victory VAP V1 Elite .001 & use the pin nock with a 120g point , fletched with my fave Bohning 1.5 X Vanes. Thin diameter, tough shaft with ice finish, precision weight & spine tolerance & reasonable replacement component prices. Why not ? Love these arrows. Recommend them highly ! ;-)

    These have to be the best arrows I have ever shot, I have shot them through steel myself and they do shoot through. The victory points however are quite soft but that comes at a cheaper price.

    Hi love your channel. Can your shop put 3.5inch feathers on 1 dozen @ 800 standard Vap’s shipped to NZ? I looked on your site, couldn’t see that option. Im bringing a 30# bodnik recurve to Vietnam, however my wife is only 21”draw Im figuring @ 18# on same bow. Any recommendations for a dozen reasonable quality? I was thinking vap 1200 spine cut to 26? But it’s all confusing regarding short draw low poundage. Regards CJ

    I been shooting FMJ 6mm 320. At 69 dollars for 6. They fly good, but if you slap those arrows they chip below the knocks. I bought some victory xtortion 350. They fly great out to 60 yards.Cant afford to group these xtortion at a price of 91 dollars for 6 arrows with field tips. FMJ are are 420 grain with 100 grain field tip. My xtortion are 524 grain with 100 grain field tip.

    I've shot victory arrrows for the last 10 years or so, maybe a touch less. majority of my victory arrows broke because they shot other victory arrows without pin nocks. I did have some problem with the SHOK aluminum inserts but they have since improved those inserts. Can't recommend them enough.
