Another Broadhead Study...
« on: February 28, 2024, 01:51:35 PM »
In lue of all the bhead hoopla, I thought this might add some info ...

Harry Copeland, with his DELTA 4 edge took two Polar bears with one shot and another bowman took 4 Catalina goats with one shot.

Hope that helps!!!  :goldtooth:

I really like the old Magnus 1 4-blades.  I only have about 5 left, but the last critter I shot with one was a black bear and it only ent about 25 yards.  The arrow was stuck 6 inches in the ground on the off side if the bear.

Tough to beat a 2 blade with bleeders.  I just like sharpening the 3 blades more, lol.

344 sharpening system makes 3 blades too easy.  Magnus I two blade, ACE and Ribtek 190's are decent heads.

No, I didn't the 344 gets a good scary sharp 44 degree angle on 3 blades.  The Styk is good for field touch up.

Don't doubt it, I'll have to see how it touches up the 44 Degree angle.  This angle is very sharp, from 14 yards went @20 yards past/thru the javelina I gut shot at LTR.  Still sharp enough to hunt.
