What broadhead adapters are you using for the big 11/32" Zwickey Deltas? Does anyone know of a source for Sweetland extra long broadhead adapters? Thanks for any help!

I am shooting them on my carbons this year. I have been using the steel 125 grain screw in adapters and they fit fine as do the aluminum adapters that I bought from Braveheart.

I have used the long and short Alum. adapters with the deltas. Got mine from 3-Rivers.

I use them on 2016 @ 27 inches with the long glue-in adapters. They work well with my set-up. I do the same with grizzlies and woodsmen.

I used to go with the Flightmate adapters. Kustom King sells them as "glue-in/glue-on" adapters.

I quit shooting aluminums years ago....but still used the same adapters on my Zwickeys....but adapters have changed a bit in design.
I buy in bulk.....by the 100....I think the last 100 I bough were from 3 Rivers. The longs I use are 42 grains.

I'm still looking for the Sweetland extra long adapters. These are no longer being made according to the person I spoke to at Zwickey. Dave at Achery Past didn't have any either. Thses adapters weight 51 grains and are long enough to fill the gap on a four blade Delta that is made in the ferrule where the bleeder blade were punched. Below is a picture of what I'm looking for. If somebody has some of these that they will no longer use I would like to buy them. Thanks guys! Posts: 283 | From: Indiana | Registered: May 2004

Yes....that's what long adapters do....all the ones I've been buying since the 80s have filled up the gap you are talking about.
