Reasonably Priced Single Bevels?
« on: May 18, 2011, 10:20:00 PM »
Do you all know of any single-bevel broadheads that are approximately $30 for 1/2 dozen?  Most of the ones I've seen are 30 for 3 or even more.  I don't need new heads, but liked the penetration of my old grizzllies - but want them in left bevel.  Can't find the new ones for sale anywhere.

Mike at "The Nocking Point" sells the Grizzlies for less than 30 dollars for a 6 pack.

IMO the grizzlies (regulars not the ELs) are the best in this price range. Tuskers and ELs bend fairly easily.

Stick with Griz. Dont know what weight you want but the original 160 griz in either left or more common right bevel is hard to beat. I killed a lot of deer with left wing/right bevel 160 gr grizzleys before I was told better (^8. Unless you need them right now more should be comming along as soon as ski season is over. It's funny how many single bevel griz haters there are out there yet they cant keep-em on the shelf. The 200 gr el grande is an excellant head as well and only the 160 (non el grande) can equal it IMO. I would hunt both in either left or right bevel without any reservations.

Thanks all.  I liked the flight of the right bevel Grizzlies, and always enjoyed doing business with Shawn.  I will check all these out.  Any more opinions are welcomed.  Someone told me that there is a new company coming out with a sturdy looking single bevel.  Anyone know anything about this?

I used 160 grain grizzles last year and took 2 deer one pass through and one buried to the feathers. What impressed me was both heads hit bone and neither  were bent or nicked and they were both still razor sharp

"Z"'s or "G"'s both are worth their low cost. But don't rule out the old traditional "sharp on both side" BH>

Last year the supply of Grizzlies dried up over the Winter but I'm sure I got my new ones from Shawn earlier than this.He may have them at this time.

Several companies have come out with single bevels.I'm not sure if this is the new company you were thinking of or not.They are not cheap,$65-$75 for 3 heads,250 and 300 gr glue ons.

Do you still have to rework the bevels on Grizzlies or can they go straight on a KME?

Is steel force still making their single bevel trad heads?  Any one use them and how have they performed.  Thinking of trying some out to compliment my terminators 3 blades.  Anyone hear of the progress VPA might be making on a two blade head as well?

Zwickey No Mercy's are awesome,easy to sharpen even for me. I recently bought some Tuskers from Braveheart(great customer service/fast shipping), hope to test them on a hog this weekend.

Taroponnut, Let me know how the Tuskers work out.  I picked up 3 for $5 at a blanket sale last weekend.

Thanks for all the input.  I will try to contact Shawn and see if they are ready for production, yet.
The Tusker concords and Zwickey No Mercies look good.
