I would prefer a 175 grain. Great looking head. I would definately buy some.

250 looks great to me in stainless.  It rains here.

I sure hope you guys are going to keep making the glue on head in CM, they're great heads. I like being able to use different adapters to get the weight I want.. The screw-ins look nice too.

Look real good.

One question I have, since I've never used single bevel heads.  Do you have to burnish or lap the non bevel side of the head to get it sharp?.  Your pictures are real good close ups and to my eye, the non beveled side looks a little rough and I can't imagine getting it sharp by honing only the one side.  I'm thinking a good polish on the flat side would help sharpening a bunch.  I guess you could get it to a wire edge then just lightly come back from the flat side to clean up that edge?

Just thinking out loud....

What are the dimensions?  How thick is it?
Dave


I've come to believe that the keys to shooting well for me are good form, trusting the bow to do all the work, and having the confidence in the bow and myself to remain motionless and relaxed at release until the arrow hits the mark.

I would think prototypes would be a bit rough...they are prototypes.  Only one person I think asked what the price would be, a bunch asked already for a bunch of different sizes, and the heads are still in the design stage it appears.

The heads look good so far partner, let us see them when completely done, and then you can tell us if you will offer other sizes.  Oh....and the suggested price would be nice too 8^).

Thank you all very much for the helpful input and I hope it continues. Right now we are only making the Brown Bear in a screw-in model. The dimension of the Brown Bear is 1 1/8 X 2 5/8. The thickness is .072. Since we are only making this one the only weight we will have will be right about 250. Also noticed that some people experienced problems with our paint in the past. We have addressed that and now with the teflon finish being added to all our heads we have not had another problem. I'm sorry but we are not sure of a price yet.

Cody,

It's hard to tell, but are these a solid one piece or is the insert glued in?

Thanks.
