This thread brings back old memories. Just looked through an old box of archery stuff that I haven't looked at in too many years than I care to admit. Found two packages of three, one package only has one left, all with bleeder blades. 125 grs. with the bleeders. Still have the price tag on them, $12.95 for the pack of three. As I'm in a transition year as far as down-sizing in weight, this thread brings back my early years, not having a mentor and trying everything on my own. Think I'll have to give them a sharpen and give them a try again. Thanx for the memories

Ken,
Been using Bears since 1968, never had reason to try anything else. Although I have supplemented with Bodkins at times.

Have had many spine shots on deer and hogs and have always had complete pass thru with instant drop. In 1982 I shot a 220lb hog in the St. Johns river marsh, The hog was rooting and heading straight towards me.I head shot it with a 70lb recurve at 15yds. The BH passed thru the skull and buried about 4 inches into the neck. Dropped in it's tracks. The BH wasn't even bent!

The Bears are tough and have no problem splitting bone when hit, I've found they fly as tru as field points from all my bows 50-90#'s.

Use them with confidence, there is a reason this BH has been around for so long. It's because they work, and they work well.

Ken, I have some Bear heads that my friend gave to me, my set up was with two blade black diamonds, I substituted a Bear in place of one and they flew beautifully. You wont have any trouble getting them sharp with a file, I took the one I shot into the house hit it with a file and it would shave hair with little effort, I like them.

Ken, I do in fact have four layin' around. One newer Stainless model, 2 greys and 1 original green. All 145 gn screw ins.I'll try to get them out to you today.By the way, I killed 2 deer with Bear Heads when I came back to Trad. Go threw a critter like butter.

Just mailed them out Ken. Enjoy!

use the bleeders. If you need any let me know.

[adkmountainken]

thank you all again. i know many people switch back and forth to different broad heads and new ones are allways coming out. i want to use an old traditional head, learn it well, stay with it and use it for everything, i look forward to taking my first traditional deer with a Bear!

The Truangle S-24 files and various stones do a great job on the Razorhead. If you can get Al Reader to make you one of his "Special Camp Hones" that's even better and more compact. I would say use the bleeders. I touch the bleeders with one of the cheapie tungsten hand sharpeners, then install them carefully. Massive blood trails from a proven design. CKruse
