Glue on Simmons...no more?
« on: July 07, 2018, 01:12:59 PM »
I was just looking at Simmons website.
...didn't see any glue on heads.
Did they stop making them?
Thanks

Correct. No longer made. I was just about to start using the sharks last year when I noticed that. That glue on shark was the most desirable to me.
Centaur makes a similar type in glue on.

Thanks for the reply.  :thumbsup:
I'll have to look Centaur up.

Actually, now it looks like the glue on shark is made?
I went through the motions to purchase and it didn't say out of stock or discontinued.

Looked at the Centaur...they look nice.

After reading your post, I did click on the "all screw in broadhead" link and looked closer at the pics.
You're absolutely correct...it does seem they still sell the 165 grain glue on tree shark....I just plain missed it.

Must admit....I was really hoping/researching for a glue on shark type head in the 190 grain range so your thought to post about Centaur really helps.
Thank you! :thumbsup:

I just a few minutes ago received an email response from Dave Oligee, owner of Simmons, and he says that the 165 grain Tree Shark glue-on is back and thriving.
