I'm ready, come what may!

I always keep some broadheads ready to go for that impromtu hog hunt, but recently found myself with only a couple ready to hunt!  :eek:   With deer season opening this weekend, and me off for bears the next, I figured I better get my heads ready!  Here are some 1 1/8" and 1 1/4" VPAs, and three 1 1/2" Big Jims.  All had to be sharpened, but three already had the bevels right (no filing).  In an hour, I had all nine shaving sharp.

 

 

 

 

I start with a 16" mill bastXXX file and then a three sided stone system available at Lowes.  Sometimes I finish with a ceramic stick.  I use side walk chalk for the file, because it's all I could find.  Works like a charm!

Looks like some good hog and deer medicine to me!  Good luck this weekend! How do you sharpen the back edges Marty?

[Apex Predator]

I've never sharpened the back edges.

Marty, it looks like your ready for any unlucky critter that steps into your zone!            I've been sharpening a head or 2 every night before bed the last few nights so when I finally get a break from school and homework I'll be ready to hunt.

[Over&Under]

Good idea on the sidewalk chalk!  I will have to try that.

[Boomerang]

I would say your ready!  

[rastaman]

My bad Marty...i thought the rear edges looked sharpened in the picture.  

[Wannabe1]

Looking good Marty. Good luck out there, stay safe and shoot straight.

I've also got a box full of original WWs and snuffers for back up.
