A larger one to match 175 or 200gn points would be good.I have no problems with vents and prefer them if the head gets larger.

Tf they were at least as big as original WWs anything around 200 grains would be a winner. Charlie Lamb described the perfect Elite Woodsman.

I wish they would make one with 1 1/16" dia. cut and keep the same three to one ratio. I don't think the current ones quite measure 1" dia.

The increase in length would not be too much and the weight would increase to a level that would
work for guys with a hevy point weighting configuration.

Not venting the blades would add weight as well, but I think venting helps make a broadhead more forgiving to shoot.

Some guys think they hiss too much.  I think the sound of the bow gets to the animal before the hiss.

I use woodsman broadheads about 50% of the time.  I can't help but notice that the advertising for these broadheads always show it blown up in size to make up for it's small cutting diameter.

I know from experience they work.  But I sure would buy the next size up if they made it.

I just received the elites 125 grain glue ons, course coupling them with 100 grain steel adapts for a 225 head my axis likes. Gotta tell ya - I think yall are down playin a pretty tough head that is gonna be a killer.

But if they do make a larger size I will have some of them as well. LOL!

Course like stated if ya need a monster hole  yall ought to try the 160 snuffer! Looks like  ameat clever passed through em.

I'd like to see a 150 Glue on and a 200 screw in myself. And if we could only get one style right now a 150-160 Glue On would work for a lot of people.
