How about selling a good quality broadhead storage box for a dozen and maybe a smaller field version for six. Make them foam filled,rattle free, with quality closures, and tall enough to hold the 3 inchers plus inserts vertically.Put a cool logo like your website on it.

Bill,
      I like the color coding the previous manufactuer used. Is that your plan or will all weights be the same finish?

Put a grizzley 190 through a deer last night and almost cut the leg off on the other side. I was hunting with l82hunt and shooting a yew selfbow. Razor sharp broadhead+shor placement equals dead.

Just revisiting this thread....I hear ya....just keep that suggestion in the back of your mind AND on the drawing board.

Also, I'll try and call you tomorrow.....got another suggestion for you to increase sales of existing heads if possible.

1 1/4" wide option sure would be a seller, I believe.

The regular grizzly is 1 1/8" wide.
The big Grizzly "Kodiak" (formerly called El Grande) is 1 1/4" wide.
The width increased when Shawn changed the dies so that the steel went all the way across the back edge.

Thanks for the pictures!   :thumbsup:

1 1/4 in wide you say?  Maybe the big griz should be called the "muy grande"

My El Grandes all measure right at 1 1/8" when new.  Maybe they lose a bit in the grind process.  If you can keep them at 1 1/4", that would be great.  I will say that even at 1 1/8", the hole they cut is much wider.   :eek:  

Bill, I'll be looking for some more 200's at K'zoo.   :pray:

Im all for 1 1/4 as well some places one cant legally hunt with broadheads under 1 1/8 so after sharpening them lightly one would quickly end up with a bit less.

Just to add to the sharpening conversation. Ironically i use a wet grinder from grizzly.com

 http://www.grizzly.com/products/8-Grinder-Sharpener/T10097

one can come by this grinder for $80 and it will do knives as well.
-just add effort.

My newer,200 gr Grizzlies are exactly 1 3/16" wide,not 1 1/4".I could resharpen these for years without losing 1/16" of width.

Not a bad rule but at least in the States,I doubt many States have a 1 1/8" requirement.
