Joshua, Im very familar with the Grizzly Broadheads and there qualities. I should of asked my question a little better. I was refering to the NEW 200 grain Grizzly. Its nice that the bevel has been changed that should make sharping them easier. It would be nice if they were hunting sharp.

I would prefer to sharpen my own and pay less money for them. Gary

I loose 15 grains off the 160's.

Amicus,

I'll answer your question.  No, they are not hunting sharp, but the grind is a little better than it was on the old RW 190's IMO.  Anyone should have an easier time of it.  If you want hunting sharp, I would steer you towards the 175 grain Abowyer Brown Bear.  They are hunting sharp and then some.  You get what you pay for, they are also $48 per 3 whereas the new Grizzly 200's are about $25 per 6.  The Grizzly's still have a higher mechanical advantage nearing a 3:1 ratio, 3 1/4" x 1 3/16"  The Brown Bear is 2 5/8" x 1 1/8".  I'll take either one.  Both are outstanding choices, as you already know.

Kind regards -

Kris

I know. I know-sorry.  It was funny to me, given their historic quality out of the box. A poor attempt at humor on my part.  I  knew the new heads would be of similar finish as their current standard heads.
I use Grizzlies BTW, just in case anyone might assume I am flaming them.

Learn, practice and pass on "leave no trace" ethics, no matter where you hunt.

I picked up a couple packs each of the 160 and 200 gr lefts from AMAW.  The new grind is really quite nice and tho not hunting sharp, it's not gonna take much to get them there.  IMO, hunting sharp from the pack is a waste of time and money with a glue on head.  They need to be test shot after installation so will need to be sharpened anyway.

I was never that impressed with the Grizzlys, but I think some of these are gonna be headed for the Pig Gig.
