Post by: two4hooking on July 26, 2013, 03:28:00 PM

Who has used these broadheads?  Experiences?  :coffee:

I still use them. Although I am getting to a point where I only use what I have left with one bow and even then I watch my back ground when I shoot them. They have a terrible problem of vanishing after I shoot them through deer.  I really have no idea where they go, bloody arrow heaven perhaps?

I'm interested in hearing experiences as well. I was lucky enough to find a couple and they will be affixed to some cedar shafts and accompany my Schulz longbow and I in the deer woods this fall. They certainly fly great.

Greg,
  Got a few years ago and killed my best bear with one as well as a good boar pig. Down to a couple of them so, to me, they're collectibles. Remember Bill Carlsen doing some testing on them when they first came out by shooting them into cinder blocks. Buried into the blocks without damage! Tough heads!

I have a few mounted on some Sweetland shafts, they kill things dead when put through them, very well made vintage heads.

I have 2 dz laying around here. I have 6 mounted on some aluminum arrows that I'll be shooting from the longbow this fall. I had Ronnie at KME hone them up for me....WOW....extremely sharp!

My compound shooting buddy has 2 dz that he used back in the early 80's when Screaming Eagle sold them. He took quite a few deer with them, still uses them.

I think I have 5 left,one went to broad head heaven when it was shot into the ground.Killed a couple of deer with them out of my HH Big5,didn't realize they were such a prized item to some.They definitely go with a longbow.I shoot Simmons Intersepters now anyone want to trade?

2 more pics. I had Ron at KME put a razor edge on these heads. The head on the arrow has been beaten around and still in great shape. The 3:1 ratio gives perfect flight. I only thought I had a few left, got close to one dz. A few Deadheads also...

I got my hands on one of these recently and love them!  They certainly sharpen easy and hold a wicked edge.  I am going to try to shoot one through a deer this Sept.
