2 band or 1 band speargun?

I also use double 16mm rubbers and found it excellent, both for the easy of loading, and also for precision, and power.

Jidependi kif u fejn tispara fuq hut zghir, dejjem trid toqod attent ,jien 90cm u 100cm inqiesom bhala all rounders , u huwa qies favorit ghalija. pero umbatt jekk qed tistad sargi u griebel taht il gebel , 60cm jew 75cm , u xi 55cm bil froxna, huma indispensabli mal ballun , pero aqleb al hrapen il qosra jekk ikun al xix il bqija dejjem dur bit twil fidek.

was reading this topic, might as well ask some questions here too?

i have a

1. beuchat mundial competition carbon elite 130 (yes i know it is very long but wasn't very experienced when i bought it) but overall it gave me great experiences.

2. Mares phantom 95. found it to be a great all rounder tough a bit heavy compared to a carbon fibre.

any mods you think i could use to increase performance and distance, i was thinking of replacing the front end of the beuchat, to an open one (forgot the technical term)

open heads shoot different from closed heads, be sure to try one out

well for bands, the more the band power is fractioned between the distance, the longer the shot(keeping constant the thickness of the spear)

however 2 band speargun have a different recoil... until you get used to it.... the big advantage definately is that if you rig with 16mm you will achieve approximately a penetration attainable with a single 18mm... however this largely depends on the band material(brand)

try out tifferent options, experiment that's the way to go.. with the bigger gun i would go with a double 17.5, buig gun, aim big

hope to have been of some help in anyways.. im sure however that emic can be of more help in this

namaste

Regards the mundial personally I don t like it. I m fan of open head and this is my main problem. Even the handle is a bit big for my hand and that makes it heavy for horizontal movements. As a 130cm there is a Therance that works with it and his catches are some of the best in Malta. As I remember he had set it up with the original head, single rubber, with a spear 10cm longer then the original and a piece of neoprene in the front of the barrel to keep it possitive conpensating for that 10cm. If i m not wrong he says that the difference in the spear makes it more easy to aim and more accurite. If need more info we can phone him up and ask him regard his setup. For sure he will help us.

Regards the fantom, i think you r talking about the aluminium one. For a 95cm like that i would suggest some good 16mm single rubber and a 6mm spear for a good range of 4mtr.

Just on what I can say is try always to use same kind of guns. The setup does not make so much difference for d spearo in a way, yes its true that it will effect the penetration, speed and accuracy but when using same type of spearguns it helps in aiming, handle grip, harpoon balance and after all confidence with your mind about not to loose the fish. We have loads of spearguns, but once you stick with gun (with a good reputation and reviews and not only advertising) you must keep with it. I spent lots of money for nothing and this a reason i try to help as i can.

Granitu knows well cos even he tried lots of setups but one he bought a good speargun.

Granitu · February 28, 2010, 15:17:33 CET

exactly emic... and don't play much with setups anymore.. no need

its really a personal process.. there's no best process
