Thanks for joining in Billy & Randy ....
Fine animals taken with your Bear Bows ....Congratulations !! :clapper:

Kelly asked..."""Riverwolf, what/how do you use those “weighted “ Razorheads?""

Kelly,
I use standard Bear SS Razorheads (mostly in 2 blade setup) , and utilizing 3 Rivers threaded Aluminum inserts ....I then add threaded weights to get my needed nose weight . This years setup called for 175 gr  nose weight for my 29.5" Easton 2018's....for a total weight of   584 grs out of my 53# Montana Longbow.........My 50#-55# Montana's almost  always end-game between 550gr--600gr  total arrow weight. Good medicine for me.  Good speed-cast-punch out of a VERY QUIET Longbow ! I normally  fine tune the same basic setup yr to yr  using nose weight . Changing string types/counts, shelf material , silencers , etc...dictates what I need . It  "usually" falls into the above  total arrow weight range.....

This setup NEVER lets me down , and keeps me well fed   :campfire:

Hope that  answers your question my friend........
Pardon me for being dumb but does one need a special insert and how does it work? Do you put the threaded weight in the insert beofre palcin in the shaft?

Enjoy the flight of an arrow amongst Mother Nature's Glory!

Once one opens the mind to the plausible, the unbelievable becomes possible!

Yours for better bowhunting, Kelly

Ralph, I killed a nice 10-point in 2021 with my Frankenbow.  This year (2023) I'll be hunting with my new to me 1980s factory camo Bear Kodiak Takedown (pictured). I do love my Bear bows.  :bigsmyl:

Cool thread idea. Love seeing Bear archery equipment in use pics!

Gun, the thought of using a mouth release is so impressive and proof of how much you love archery!! Very cool sir  :notworthy:

It’s also impressive seeing these “affordable” old bows still getting it done.

Yes Sir Mr. Tim..BIG Thank you to everyone for chiming in . Also to those just enjoying the pictures & thread.....
Bear archery is a Fine company  with a LOT of fine history as well ! .....

Good stuff Frank ....I'm sure you will do just fine with that Kodiak TD ! Best of luck !

Kelly,
"" does one need a special insert and how does it work? Do you put the threaded weight in the insert beofre palcin in the shaft?""

Hey Kelly , and no dumb questions my friend !!  The standard aluminum inserts do not come with a threaded back-side to except most weight system weights....Though you can easily tap most to do so....OR   , do like I do and buy 100ct of aluminum inserts to fit your particular aluminum shaft size. Most of the most common size aluminum have these threaded inserts available for them . To these you can either purchase weight systems or use cheap metal screws cut to length/weight as needed ;)

Both will get-er-done !

I know 3 Rivers sales them , and I'm sure a few others archery  retailers  do as well . 

Best with your quest my friend .

Any additional info needed , just drop me a pm. More than Happy to help any way I can....Thank you for the questions. Never think that any question is dumb my friend . Good to see folks involved /responding to the conversations  !  :clapper: :campfire:

Our best that way , and hope everything gets back up and running soon for the Company ,  employees , and  customers ......
