Get ready, their almost hear!
« on: November 26, 2008, 12:00:00 PM »
I shipped the new small game head I designed and am producing to 3Rivers and they are about ready to release them! The first ones are going to be 125gr. and 145gr. weights and then we will possibly go with 175 and 200gr. They should have pictures of them on their web soon. Let me know how you like them.  :)  

Thanks,
Boomer

I think they are going to be called 3Rivers small game head, but I will let them choose the name and release the photographs.

Are they the ones called the "Hammer"?

Sorry I guess they did end up calling it the "Hammer".

It is on their web now under small game heads.

they look great! but the price ($5.99) i think is a little excesive. i dont mean to sound harsh, but that part can be mass produced by a screw machine for pennies.
i would love to buy some, but it would cost me a small fortune to fill my quiver....

They look great I may have to pick some up and try them.  They are $5.99 for a 3 pack which is $2 a pc.  The Ace Hex Blunts are $8.99 for 6 which is $1.50 a pc.  So in reality there is not much difference and if they are a better head then it would be worth it.  My question is when I shoot Hex Blunts they still tend to still slide under leaves and junk while stump shooting which is why I still use Judos.  Do these stay on top of the leaves are grass better than the Hex Blunts??

Jamie,
If it were just a screw machine job they would be cheaper, but they require mill work also and they are heat treated.

I would also like to know if they slide under leaves and grass.  I have had the same experience at Tim, with the hex head.  Are you going to come out with heavier ones?  I think there are alot of carbon arrow shooters shooting heads 175 grains and up, myself included.  Would love to see some 175, 200, 250, and 300 grain heads.

No problem Jamie, I hope you like them.
Tim, they are 1/2 inch in diameter so they do grab better than the hex blunts which helps them from getting burried under leaves and grass as much.

I am making 175 and 200gr. at the current time. So they will probably release these soon.

I like the looks of them!  Are you going to make glue ons?

I put some Adder points under the Hex heads to give them some teeth and to be easier to find in leaves, etc. I'll check these heads out too...
