FYI...
Just talked to Shawn Leins, from 3-rivers and he was telling me that the screw-in 125grn woodsman should be coming out in the next two to three weeks. I told him when it does, to post that info on tradgang.
thanks,
sammy

That's great news. :) I shoot the 150 grain screw-in since I use aluminum arrows. I had wished for a 125 screw-in and I'll be looking forward to buying a package of them.

He's going the wrong way! Where are the 160-300 grain screw-ins? :0....O.L.

Yeah, what he said.

Yeppers 225 be nice course I just add a 100 grain adapter. How bout make a quiet one? Love the WW.
-
I agree with OL and the others who want them heavier. Been wanting a 160-190 glue on since they first came out. :help:

It's called "buy a heavy adapter and glue them in". ;)

I would love a 160 or heavier glue-on too for my wood arrows.

OL's right, they're going the wrong way.....would love to see a 200gr. glue on :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

That is awesome. I cant wait to get a dozen or so. I have been shooting 125 grain thunder heads on my aluminums. They are a good head but I like my WW much better. I will keep an eye on the web site to see when they are avalible. Thanks for the heads up.

That doesn't work so well if you shoot real wood arrows. I don't want something I have to add to or adapt. I want it right from the start. All it would take is a heavier gauge steel, or just lose the vents.

True, but O.L asked, "Where are the 160-300 grain screw-ins?". He didn't ask about glue-on heads.
Paging through just one catalog I see screw-in adapters weighing 26, 32, 42, 75, 100, and 125 grains. With a regular 125-grain glue-on Woodsman, folks have the ability to create screw-in Woodsmans weighing 151, 157, 167, 200, and 225 grains. If we consider insert weight, we can go as high as 350 total grains up front.
Using glue-on heads without the luxury of insert and/or adapters is, of course, a different story entirely.
-
Razorcaps can be had in 200 grains. With a 100 grain insert I can get 300 grains but find that that would require buying new shafts to get them to shoot well.
-
Got to agree with Guru we need a heaverier glue on!
-
I was planning to try the WW this year, until I found out they only come in 125 as glue-ons. I went back to the 160 Snuffer instead. I use wood shafts exclusively, so adapters don't help.
-
Every body talks about sleeving carbons.
You can sleeve a wood shaft with aluminum as well. They ain't purdy but they work.
I sleeve mine after they break. They continue to be a great small game and stump shooting arrow. The sleeve allows me to screw in what ever I want to shoot.
That being said, heavy duty WW glue-ons would be great.
-
The 125s will be a great addition. Lots of guys will try them, including myself.

For those of you interested in heavier glue ons, the Woody Weights work fantastic. :thumbsup:
