The Bear may not be the popular item nowadays but it has a history of excellence; almost as old as the Zwickey. They are superb for sharpening in the field, and they fly perfectly. No new girlfriends for me 8^))))).

I concir, I have used this same head and it shoots well and kills deer quick. It makes a very large hole.

I use my own hand chipped broadheads I make out of Obsidian or Flint and they work quite well I have shot through a number of deer with my home made recurve bow at a draw weight of 41 pounds at 28 inches. I have also used my grand dad’s Bear Super Razor fixed head he used in the sixties to hunt deer. They still work and hold a very good edge.

Very nice, Beats my first wood arrows I made. I used wood dowels from Home Depot, They actually worked quite well but I could not maintain a tight group with them. Switched to ceder and solved that problem. I have also used bamboo with good results.

I would suggest to limit your coats of stain to two maximum to limit changing the spine as much.
