New here and new to traditional bows all together actually just got my first trad bow ever off here last week. Well to the point,haven't really heard much about single bevel heads untill now and was just wondering about all your guys opinions on the subject. I have read the ashby reports just curious to what all of you think.
Thanks

Depends on your set up. What's your set up? People are gonna want to know that. Single bevel heads are all about added penetration and if you don't need them there is really no advantage, but to each his own. All Broadheads kill when they're in the sweet spot so don't sweat it too much. Sweat the accuracy of your shot before you worry about your Broadheads, that's just my two cents.

I have tried some and I like them. They kill whitetail just as dead as any other head that I make a good shot with.
Any good broadhead in the right place will work. Try them if they look good to you and enjoy your backstraps! Good luck!

I like the idea and plan on trying some different ones. I will say I have had not to good of an experience with them though with the one head I did try which was a 120 grain Grizzly. I can get them sharper than any other head I have ever tried but anytime they hit a hard object they would bend or break. However I don't think this would be the case with the heavier Grizzly's as their blades are much thicker. The one I would be keen on trying though is the Meathead made by Joe Furlong. It is just a lighter version of the Tuffhead which has been proven on some of the toughest game in the world.

I have read a lot of really good hunters on this site and from what I can tell a really, really sharp broadhead is going to get the jog done for you.
Some people thing that single beveled edge broadheads break bones better, and they might be right. But somewhere on this site guys have posted pics of bones cut by seriously sharp broadheads.

My son and I are very pleased with the results from Abowyer Brown Bears shot from our 50# bows. Lots of blood that we almost ignore!

they are proven to be an advantage when shooting at dangerous game. Personally, I don't think they offer any real advantage on deer.
