I also agree that there should be no reason to pay more than 4 to 5 dollars each for a broadhead.  More than that and they stay on the shelf.

6 pack.  I usually carry four in my quiver so 3 does me little good.

I agree, the only reason that some are in three packs is because folks would absolutely not buy as many six packs at 60 - 200 dollars a hit.

I think a six pack is the right number to have, but,  well, I guess everything is more expensive now days.  Buy up those big Z's while they are available at $24/6 or whatever it turns out to be.

Bill a modest increase will go unnoticed, but a huge jump, like I am seeing in a lot of heads, means I buy fewer, or find a new head, and there are plenty out there.

I am certain that some of the heads available are awesome, the best out there, but I don't need the best when even a moderate head is awesome on deer sized critters.  I will never get to shoot an elephant or a water or cape buffalo.

Never shot the grizzlies but have the Snuffers for a long time, again 6 just makes more sense from the hunting aspect. I have probably 30 Snuffers but started shooting the VPA's recently and they are a great head but at almost $15 a piece I may have to go back to snuffers. Javi is right lots of less expensive heads get the job done, but in my case the VPA's are easy to sharpen and a tough as nails head so maybe in the long run a head that holds up as well as the grizzlies or VPA's may be the better investment. If ya package in 3 you could maybe offer a slight discount for a multiple package purchase. Shawn

I like Grizzly's and I like the number 6. Nice even number. Please, please, please, grind them all the way to the end and the same angle.

Used to think 3, until I brought 4 heads on out of town hunt, lost 1 bh and bent another.  My next bhs will be 2 3 packs or a 6 pack.  Seems you get a little more bang for the buck with a 6 pack - like buying TP at Sams.  :p

Hopefully on price most people would do the division and compare to a 3 pack.

I like six packs,  I happen to love the biggest magnus four blade heads and I don't mind having extras.  

Let's face it.  Three packs came along when broadheads started becomming over priced
trendy things.

Six for me too, Bill.  BTW, Thanks for taking these on.  I didn't want to have to do it.

guess 3 or 6 if the price is also a multiple and not cost more per head.

The quest to improve is so focused on a few design aspects & compensating for hunter ineptness as to actually have reduced a bow & arrow’s effectiveness. Nothing better demonstrates this than mech. BHs & speed fixated designs

I would definitely buy the 6 pack, better to have to many than not enough.

3 packs of broadheads is solely a way to reduce sticker shock for hyper-inflatedly priced heads.

3 for me unless there is a real decent price break for 6. Otherwise I will get two 3's when I want more. I have been going to more high quality heads. I don't want to drop $60+ to try a head out. Once I try and like, I don't want to have to get 6 more.

I usually buy 6 or 12 broadheads at a time.  So, a six pack for me, please.  Three packs would just add extra cost due to lower volume and packaging.  I also stick with the <$30 per six brands.

I have noticed that most of us shoot left wing feathers. Might be a good thing to maybe run a pole  and see weather to make 75% of your BH Left beveled?? Can't wait for you to start selling them again.... They are in good hands.   :bigsmyl:
