Fred,
 Were they the ones on sale at 3 river's? I just saw quite a few different style Simmons on sale there and couldn't believe the sale price they had on the Huntmore 360...Not sure if they sold all thier stock yet but they went from $219.99 to $172.00 something..Anybody getting themselves their own Christmas presents better go check out the sale on those heads and I mean quick.

Love the Sharks!  Wish I hadn't waited so long to try them.  We have the Treesharks in stock as well, you can ignore the back order on the web page we are reloaded site to be updated Monday.

Also now have some of the screw ins that you all begged for, we'll be getting them up ASAP in the meantime just e-mail us if we can help.

That is correct.  Dave puts a great factory bevel on them now, so the re-grind is no longer necessary.  I wish I could go in and edit that tutorial, but since it got moved to the How To section, it's locked down.  Just in case you want to check out the video, here's a link:   http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MtNBQoVlz80&list=UUozlzf1CCoULb4bT0lQra8Q&index=14

Thanks Chris. After watching your video again I placed an order for the 3-in-1 file and the arrow guide.

Here is another method.  I cut and pasted it from maybe even this site.  I have not tried this but it looks interesting.

My experience is the same, they fly great and sharpen well also. I use a half round file and leather strop. Hair popping sharp with little work at all. I have taken 3 deer this fall with the 165 Tree Shark and absolutely love them! I back mine with a 100 grain woody weight.

Thats a fine looking broadhead Bowhunterga.I am thinking they may not fit in my little leathertop bear quiver to well though.I think i am going to have to get some tree sharks and give them a try ,i can always use them in a back quiver.

Just a note..before you cut your arrow shafts the lengths may need to be different when using glue on or screw on Tree Sharks. According to how close you like to draw the head to the face of the riser.

That's a good point I didn't think about but I'm ok in that area.  The other thing I didn't think about was my quiver. I just got mine today and I have the EFA 3 arrow minis and getting them in there was a little bit of a challenge.
