Last problem solved:

I just took a piece of cedar shaft, split it, and tapered the point.  Then super glued it to the broadhead the same way I would apply a knife slab handle.  Finally coating the surface with thin super glue to seal the cedar.  Really quite simple and it is still a removable broadhead with a sweged taper.  All ready for February Hogs  :)   Doc

I was going to suggest taking one of those UBAR things (Universal broadhead adaptor rings) and flipping it upside down to make a smoother transition from head to shaft. But, the cedar looks pretty cool.

I was thinking JB weld and filing to desired taper. Cedar looks way cooler.

Jeff....I was thinking about just extending the alum foot, and slot it for the head, grind it to a point, then bend it down to the head so you get the taper up to the shaft diameter.  (but the cedar looks prettier!)

either way...300grains is just perfect for me  I'll take 3   :)

waiting on my Jan tags for CT....we could try them out on a doe or two.

nice work!

Mark, I thought about that or trying to swege down a cone on the front of the alum foot with a slot.  Might be hard to get a nice even cone though.  Plus that alum would be Sharp!  Wouldn't want anything to get cut up...especially ME  :eek:
