Difference between the new woodsman and the VPA broadhead
« on: May 30, 2010, 08:09:00 PM »
I love broadheads and already own some woodsmans but don't like the whistle.  I am looking at the VPA and New woodsman but don't see a diffence at 200 Grain.  Anyone know the diff?  or for that matter how VPA can make that head with copyright laws?

And they fly like field points.

VPA makes all the heads your reffering to. Companies use other products as their own with aggreement between the two, called private labeling. Copyright protects logos, business names, manuscripts etc. Patents protect product design, products and product ideas.
