David,
I have taken a look at the stone vs. blade relationship and found that I get the most even contact by having the stone angle set at it’s max. or near max. setting in order to hit the edge of the blade and, thus, sharpen the head. There can be a learning curve and mine is particularly LONG in most cases.
Like all of us here, I want the sharpest and best flying head I can find and the Tuffhead fits the bill to a T. Might just have to take Joe up on his offer. I agree with the practice heads being almost as expensive as the real thing, such is the case with the Montec, when I first started using the Montecs, the practice heads were a few bucks cheaper but I have seen lately that the price is the same. I also see what you mean with pulling broadheads from foam. I have killed multiple ethafoam targets with broadheads. Tough to find a broadhead target of any type that lasts more than a few hundred shots. But the ethafoam seems to be the best option. The multi-layers foam targets quickly become worthless and are a mess when you start cutting up the layers. I am sure there is a large foam to grass ratio in our yard at this time. But the option is to not practice with broadheads, which would be REEEEEE-DICULOUS! Thanks for the reply and advice. I do appreciate being able to benefit from your’s and the experience of others. Been nothing but a sincere pleasure internetting with trad. folks, they are always ready to share info and provide another way of looking at things.
BEst of luck to you and yours,’
