installing bleeders on land sharks
« on: January 28, 2008, 04:53:00 PM »
Any one shoot these big 190 grain head? I have a packet and I want to use them this spring turkey hunting.   I misplaced my instructions for assembly. The Simmons web site doesnt have any tutorial or assembply info.

Sliding the insert into the head is no prblem, But how do you keep the insert in place?

Bend the point of the bleeder blade and then seat it.

Wheh! I feared you were talking deer or even elk ... for which Sharks are already lame (Ashby) and bleeders would make them moreso. For turkey's however, we want heads so big they'll slice 'em in half for us (so they don't run off and hide, unrecovered, which I'm convinced happens far more often than we wish to admit). Good idea! I use the giant old 3-blade Bodkins and MA3 heads, plus lighter bows and penetration limiters -- among the worst ever heads for penetration in big game, but which knock the poop out of turkeys and put 'em down quick, for sure recovery.
