Anyone know where I can get the 175gr screw-in everywhere I checked they are out.

They are same as VPA 175's

Never question a man's choice in bows or the quality of an animal he kills.  He is the only one who has to be satisfied with either of those choices.

I think the VPA 175 are shorter? Maybe made blades thicker - no expert for sure but can't go wrong with either.

Easy heads to sharpen up,
Always be stubborn.

Yes the 175 grain VPA broadheads are a little shorter, but I did not notice any performance difference.

Interesting. I have vpa and woodsman 200 grain screw on heads. The vap heads are less than 1/8 longer and that looks to be due  mostly to the more pronounced pyramid point grind on the woodsman They shoot the same, but I like the color of the vap better.    :)

I ordered the VPA 175gr 3 blade. I like the idea of a little longer. I know its not by much and I couldnt find the woodsman in stock and the VPA are a little cheaper to buy but not in durability.
I cant wait to give them a try in our late season bow hunt.
Are the scary sharp out of the packageanyone know?

No they need to be sharpened. There are lots of good tutorials online. Search sharpen woodsman or vpa 3 blade online,or use the search feature here. File and a jewel stick work great and even I can get them sharp.
