Just wondering, do you think the indians used to gather around and argue as much over stone head design as we do over our own?

i like the look of that head a lot better than the steelforce broadhead. the steelforce head has to abrupt fadeout from the ferule to the blade. kind of like the hill broadheads.

Bob, interesting head.
I am with Chuck though - what is pictured, looks like a true right hand bevel  :confused:
From the drawing I assume the ferrule is divided in two - with the front part obviously solid - and going through a cut-out in the blade - is this so?

yea it looks very similar to the magnus stinger ferrule, the one weakness i have heard of with the stinger is a buddy shot a buck in the knuckle and the pen sheared and the blade fell out.

i would like to see ferrule go farther into the main blade and slope smoother but i think it will make a great head.
sign me up for a dozen when you start shipping them. if you need any help testing i have several places to shoot pigs before deer season and i will run a bunch threw some pigs and let you know how they work. if you need help that is.

If a fellow is looking to shoot 300 grains up front, Bob's broadheads look like just the ticket -- put all the weight into the head for increased strength. I wish I would have stopped by his booth at Comptons for a better look.

Chuck your right it also said 255 gr.It will be made with a single left hand bevel. And we are keeping at the 300 grains, to match the field points we have and the 3 blade 300 Xtreem that is in final production testing. The 2 blade will be hand assembled one at a time all stainless steel. Blade is very high quality knife blade stainless.

Sounds like a winner Bob.  Good luck with it.
