There was blood everywhere.

Let's see those stingers kills and blood trails!

I've killed numerous elk and mule deer with 125 and 150gr 4 blades. I have also tested the 150 on cow shoulder blades. If the ferrule diameter of the broadhead is larger than the arrow shaft, penetration thru the shoulder blade was to the fletch. I've tried a lot of heads over the years but always seem to come back to the stinger.

I shot them for three or four years. Killed quit a few critters with the four blades. Great heads!

Nice thread. Love the stingers/buzzcuts. I've found I can get them very sharp shot after shot using the Simmons Steelmaster. And I've yet to find a setup they don't fly great from.

Up to the top, considering shooting them this year.

4 blade-stinger or buzzcut is the question

150gr 2 blade through the heart he ran a 15 yard circle and died 5 yards from where I shot him. 250 pounds field dressed. This was my first time using a stinger and I was very impressed on how it penetrated the tough shield and shoulder bone on this huge wild boar! Yup you guessed it I'm still using them 3 years later...

Didnt realize they were this popular! How are they to sharpen? That would be my only concern.

I find them very easy to get shaving sharp, using the Steelmaster made by Simmons. I'm sure sharpeners like the KME would work just as well.
