Grizzly broadhead update
« on: December 10, 2011, 09:07:00 AM »
I wanted to give you folks an update, gotta keep the gang in the loop. It has taken one heck of a push to get these heads back in production but we FINALY have 2000 heads ready for heat treat.         :jumper:        What a relief!
There is still a lot of work to be done before you all can get them bloody but it is one more giant step in that direction. I expect to have them available around the end of Jan. I will have some at Kalamazoo.

 Improvements to the latest generation of the Grizzly broadhead
 Improved farrell alignment
Precision ground 25 deg. bevel
Tanto tip will be sharp on both sides of the broad head  
More consistant hardness
 
Left or right wing bevel
 
We will be starting another run of Grizzly broadheads in 2 weeks.That way there will be NO laps in broadhead availablility!

Will it take as much work to get them sharp as the old one? I mean to get the bevel down to where you can put a razor edge on them.
Do you think you will offer a option of a ready to go razor sharp from the factory? Thanks for keeping the Grizzly alive. Ken Denton

The bevel will go all the way to the edge of the head and the back side of the tip will be ground so that it is a point and not an edge.
We will be offering a ready to hunt razor sharp Grizzly. I am not sure if any of this run will get that option.I do not want to delay these heads any longer.

Looking forward to continued Zipper Bows quality and innovation on these broadheads Bill! I'm in for a dozen when I see you at KaZoo.  Don't forget, as part of my ProStaff duties, I offer proof reading for press releases  :D

That's good news. I hate to see a great broadhead go the way of the dinosaurs.

Keeping the masses properly updated and informed will be most beneficial and maintain the focus of the current fan base. Direct and expedient communications will serve to eliminate unnecessary damage control.

Great job Bill and thanks for the update.
