I was looking around this weekend at the Zwickeys only place I could find them was 3Rivers and all the 4 blades were out of stock and not back orderable.  Was just curious if anyone knew if they were still making them?
Too many bows to list, and so many more I want to try!  Keep the wind in your face, and your broadheads sharp.

They're still making them.  Check out their website for other dealers if the one you usually use is out of stock.

Looked like Big Jim had them as well as Kustom King.

I don't think your arrow is too heavy, but it does not need to be that heavy to be effective. I have been shooting carbon arrows that are 495 gr and 545 gr out of my 45 pound bow and I like the results. One of them is 11 GPP and the other is 12 GPP. But, they are very well tuned, and I find that to be important.

I got the arrow weight differences by using different brand shafts and by tuning carefully.

Get your broadheads shaving sharp and if the arrows shoot well you will be fine.

You are mistaken. They haven’t made them in a bit. Everyone I called/tried is out. I even ordered some only to be refunded.

 :biglaugh: Like I said, that was a joke. But I really do have 4 or 5 dozen still in their packs from StJude wins or deals on classifieds.

I sent zwickey a e mail asking if they were still in business month ago. Got a reply saying that they hoped to be back in production in two or three months. No reason or explanation given. Not sure what it means but makes me wonder.

Yesterday, I did some inventory on my Zwickey's. I have 63 2 blade Deltas, 11 4 blade Deltas and 8 Eskimos. I surely hope they get back in production soon for several reasons. One, I only shoot 2 blade Deltas - practice & hunting. I don't even own a target point. And my second reason, I wouldn't like having to change my screen name,,,,LOL :biglaugh:

Those 170 grain Deltas look interesting, if they were only 4's.  Always wondered why they didn't make heavier heads.

Need to pay more attention!!!  Those 170's are with an insert!!!  Darn it, I was all excited.  Found two Delta 2's and two Delta 4's in my broad head drawer.  Have to put them in the rotation for hogs.  So much experimenting to do and not as much time as before.  Don't take anything for granted.

Zwickey has not had 4 blades available in about a year.  I don't know why, but the explanation already posted seems as logical as any.
