3 Rivers site shows – 120gr Left wing and 160 gr Right wing Grizzly’s available if any one is interested in the lighter heads $43–. I have not verified, as I prefer heavier 190’s up.

Smithhammer –

and it is fun to experiment ! and it gives us a report on the capability of these BHs especially if you are successful in the field with them.

I like THs and BBears — grizzlys if they start making them again— always interested in other folks experience / experiments.

I still like Tuffheads best as with 3-1 and their ferrel is thicker to the point than any other – which should help with Punching bone! I like shooting tight to the shoulder so I have a tendency to prefer a head that will help me if I creep into it—just my preference-

I realize better Bhds are not cheap – but such is life imho –

Looking forward to your report–

Jp — yes – exactly

What you speak of is an art — takes time and effort.

It is always interesting to me that a lot of people want to make bows -fewer people want to deal with making arrows — and very few want to learn how to sharpen the Broadhead to RAZOR Edge— in the end the “sharp end of the Spear” is the “first among equals” everything in life is a balance – but a sharp broadhead helps tip the scale in your favor and honors the animals we hunt!

Scout.

Yea – and I am still working towards building the perfect edge- after all these years—

Lansky is a good sharpener [used one for yrs -still have it].I would say the KME is a more precision tool. Holds the angle [cut]a little tighter. your Lansky will work on Single bevels. So will files & diamond stones and strops -which I also use.

Three times the charm —

I now {2yrs}use a KME KNIFE Sharpener for my Knives & Broadheads-From Doc & Daves Recommendations—–

works like a champ! I also purchased the Diamond/bench stones they sell – excellent for finish -touch up

You got me dave – your right – that “whiskey river” will take your mind!–haha

All joking aside – this young man’s skills are absolutely Magnificent– and a joy to behold—more power to him. Looks like everyone else is going to have to “Pony Up”.

Same old truths– focus – perform the fundamentals flawlessly under pressure, I am still working on it—

Wexbow —

Roger that — I use a slight cant rt of vert [I am rt handed]for distance /accuracy. I also practice an extreme cant almost horizontal to limit my silhouette,when raising myself to shoot over low brush [sage]. In all variations my rt{master} eye is over the shaft.

in reply to: Bow Stringer #52136

A number of companies make universal stringers. Selway makes a good “Longbow” one. I like the Super stringer By Thunderhorn,[longbow /Hybrid /recurve]It has worked well on everything I have tried. I tie a knot in it for shorter bows.

Handirifle –

If you decide to go with Gold Tip Tradionals – check out 3rs cat under Broadheads & points – weight systems. have a lot of stuff for adding weight to this arrow.

I find, I can shoot “pure” instictive well [ small tgts/area ]

out to 18+-yds. I shoot “split vision” from there to about 25yds { max Hunting under perfect conditions}. Further{ if you can refine your accuracy at long range it tightens your closer shots imho] than that and just for fun/practice, I gap.

Yea , It is a little different – but works for me.
