The Head not only passed through...it went into the 1x6 till it met the cylinder block and bounced back out.


ENTRANCE into 1x6...

   

EXIT 1x6...

A coconut is harder than you think. That is good penatration. What bow weight and arrow weight was that? Just curious.

I've had pretty good results with my Badger heads.  My only complaint is I can't seem to get the steel super sharp.  I can get them barely shaving sharp (cuts some hairs but pulls some) but not truly razor sharp.  They have been incredibly durable, accurate, and done their job for me though.

I'd like to try Badgers but they aren't interested in making right wing heads.

Sir I'm very confused because that's exactly what I was shooting in these videos.... I have a dozen of them bought over the last 3 years

I'd like you to explain a little bit further please because I know the owner personally AND hunt with him.

I'm going to call him now so please post exactly what you're talking about so I can address it with him.

Thanks

I'll be chasing bears with him on Thursday but I'm pretty sure the answer is no.... to much tooling too much money I'm not really sure why they're considered Barbed because it's so minute.

Still waiting on response from the other guy about not making right Wings when I got a quiver full right now as I'll be hunting with him like I said on Thursday and possibly Sunday

I have Badgers and like them. I have left wing because I have a bunch of those feathers,but his sight does show left wing only.

I have never let this stop me any way feathers are cheap if I had to buy some right wing.
