This season i had mostly 2 blade heads on most my mid 40's poundage bows, and half of those were single bevel...

I have a lot of snuffers,, i used them for years but bought any deals that popped up along the way...

So while in the stand studying a 190 ribtek on the end of my arrow a voice came to me and said "you must only shoot big snuffers starting next opening day"

 I will be shooting bows frok 43# to 55# and im shooting the original snuffers from everything including my 44# selfbow,,,,,, I'm officially back to hunting alone again after a friend moved so next season im not praying and hoping for a good blood trail anymore even with 1 entrance hole i will have plenty of
blood and i know from using these heads before whatever gets shot ain't going far..

As far as sharpening,,  don't sharpen like a two blade and expect a two blade edge... its a steeper bevel once it easily slices through rubber bands use it...

I would use 3 blade heads, if I could get the darn things sharp! I am a bit sharpening challenged in general though :biglaugh:

I have been shooting my split bamboo for about 8 months now. I really like it a lot.

I'm green with envy!!! (lol)

Honestly, in almost 50 years of travel, I consider Stickflingers one of the absolute best adventures I have ever went own. As you already know, the place is a bear factory with great guides and culture.

Hopefully, you will be like me on my second trip; I killed the bear of my dreams.

Good luck!!!!!!

PowWow / Heading to Manitoba part II

Hey all, got lucky on a cancellation for Stickflingers this May! I'll be on stand the week of May 17th.

This will be my second time up with Ryan & crew.

I wrote about my last trip up there I had a phenomenal chance at what I believe to be a low to mid 6' chocolate color-just peeked & hit shoulder, bear was none the wiser.

Still trying for my first animal with a stick bow, unfortunately I hit my safety harness earlier this week when shooting at a doe. 

This time WILL be different, excited to get back up to Canada.

Love to chat with the other hunters that will be there, if you all see this

I hunt with three blade heads, but I use enough bow and 600 gr arrows to get full double-lung and out penetration.

The 3 blade will win that contest and in real life and death give you a better blood trail too.  No brainer
