helix arrowheads?

[dougbutt]

I was just looking at the new sponsor Stricklands Archery Products website and noticed the helix broadheads they have for sale, does anyone have any experience with these?    :confused:

No personal experience, but I've heard only good reports on them.

Last fall I was hunting with a friend ( I was steps behind him) who was using one.  He shot a very large bodied bull front on with one. Bull just reared back and kinda did a bunking bronco went just yds and died.  He guides elk and mule deer hunters and he will only use them now and highly recommoneneds.

I think bowwild has some experience with them. If I remember right they worked well for him.

I videoed a good friend sending a Helix through a doe 2 years back.She did not like it and only went about 50 yards before she went down.

I love em!  I have unopened packages of very good broadheads that I've put away in favor of the Helix. Full disclosure: I'm friends with the designer. This means I trust his judgement as long as it takes me to evaluate them. I evaluated and found them terrific!

He asked me a week ago how to become a Sponsor of Trad Gang.

The werewolf is a very good head and I took an elk with one last yr. I didn't get to make a kill with the helix but am going to do my best this yr. Both heads are very well built but the werewolf is a lot easier to sharpen because of the 25 degree bevel verses the 40 degree of the helix imo. ymmv
