The Ashby Method with Dr. Ed Ashby

This week Matty is joined by living legend Dr. Ed Ashby.

Dr. Ashby was the man who helped to reinstate bowhunting in South Africa.

The man documented over 630+ animals that he took with his bow and arrow.

Each time trialing different arrows, broadheads and total weight setups to come to a conclusion of best setups for bowhunters which is all documented and shared through “The Ashby Bowhunting Foundation.”
