Always a good idea to read the hunting regulations every year,  Having hunted here for 40 years, its easy to feel like you know all the rules, but every so often they change something and some times its really well publicized but often not.   Good luck!

No good in Minnesota either. It's too bad it looks like the ultimate head I almost ordered them from 3 River til I saw the barbed disclaimer. Get rid of the barb and you would sell a lot more.

Good guys!!!! Great Heads!!!! I know the work Stephen has put in his design. Give this head a try and forget about the archaic barbed heads regs that are not part of most state regs anymore. Been stopped many times over the years by game wardens doin their job.....not one wanted to check my broadheads. johnnyboyscout out!!!   :D

A barbed head is a broadhead that comes back up at an angle from the cutting surface to the ferrule. These heads do that to some degree. And yes John I've been approached by game wardens doing their jobs and no I've never been asked to show my broadheads. But does that give me the right to do something that is written in the regs. that say I can't do it. Come on, aren't we better than that here on this site?

I believe most states did away with the barbed head regs. because of the use of mechanical heads. Missouri changed the a few years back.

Stephen

I need to touch base with you. Got a fella who walked in shop the other day wanting to try your heads. I'll touch base with an order shortly. I hope to post a pic of a kill with one of the heads you sent us earlier. Stay tuned.

I'm not in charge of whats better for your rights, regs, values, choices or ethics that's up to you....which has nothing to do with my previous post. But I am all about supporting a hardworking traditional vendors trying to make a living in a fickle world. I use them and will continue to use them where I see fit. Good luck on your quest.    :D

John I don't want to start a problem on this thread, And I also deal with the vendors that advertise on this site. Including you. I have one of you Slim-Jim quivers on my Predator bow, and love it. But I'm not a so called Boy Scout, I just try and do things legally. And I'd like nothing more than try these broadheads. They look really nice and I hope they work out for everybody who does use them. But you came across as saying if you don't get caught it's OK !  And it's not.

Actually Ranger, they are now.  The barbed wording was removed from the regs a few years ago for the mech head shooters, so barbs away if you want.
