Paying an extra couple of bucks for these heads is well worth it.  I was so surprised at the current prices of quality 2 blade broadheads. Many had similar prices - but for 3!  

Well made.
Easier than ever to sharpen and keep sharp.

Its a very reasonable price increase. And most importantly quality improved.

BTW, whats the expected backorder time for the grizzlies? Thanks

Whatever   :dunno:  

At my current rate, I will never need new broadheads again. One shot at deer every 10 years makes broadhead expenses seem petty when considering the cost of everything else like licenses.
Relax,

You'll live longer!

I appreciate your posting! You didnt HAVE to do that but your relationship with customers is obviously worth a lot to you.
Good medicine!  
Makes me want to switch from my current heads to these!  Talk soon, Dave

Considering what everything else costs now....forty bucks for SIX broadheads is a bargain. PLUS....they last and last...unless of course you are very lucky!

I see no problem with that price at all. Teflon is a good improvement. I'm trying to make an adapter/head combo that is around 175 gr., and I've kind of lost track of the ball on availability. Are the 120 gr. LWs out yet?

I just received my 160's that I bought in the St. Jude's auction. I paid quite a bit more than what you're asking now, and I don't think it was too much  :D  . Ron put a scary edge on them. I can't wait to run them through a critter.

This is still a great price. I'd rather pay the onshore, American made price! Especially when I know you are constantly working to improve your products. Thanks Bill!  :thumbsup:

Thank you for keeping them going.  It is an excellent broadhead at a very fair price.  For some reason these fly great for me and I can get them scary sharp.

Thanks for the suppport folks. I thought it would be better to explain the situation.It seems I was right this time.

Which heads do you want, Brock? By the end of next week we will have everything except 160's to grind.

Dang it, Lee. I thought I did respond. Looking back I see that i did not get it to the computer. Sorry about that. Sometimes my pea brain says send before my hands get it typed.Please dont take it personal.
I have tried some of your suggestions. I did rough grind some heads before heat treat.By the time I got them coated and cleaned back up it took just as long. If the heads did not go on the exact same position on the grinder.It has 7 slots for heads. Then they were a mess. It just has not worked out.
The packaging we chose was the most effective and economical at the time.We also have to consider what the product looks like at the sales point.Granted most of us dont give a hoot about the packaging we know what we are looking for in a broadhead.Consider this though, if someone was standing looking at a sea of broadheads on a shelf and is unfamilar with the Grizzly head. He would not even consder Grizzly's if the heads were not presented well on the shelf.
Thanks for the suggestions and again sorry for the over site on my part.
Bill
