Broadhead Madness!
« on: September 25, 2013, 05:51:00 PM »
I'm just wondering if anyone else has this problem. It seems that I have to test and use atleast a few different heads each year. I don't have any intention to collect any of them. It just seems I always have a new favorite and like them all. Most have preformed well and some have performed very well but I'm always on the search for another to try.

So far I have hunted 2 models of Simmons, 3 models of Steel Force, Muzzy, Thunderhead, Satellite, older Grizzly's, Snuffers, 4 models of Zwickey, HI Percision, 2 models of VPA, ACE, Stingers and Buzz cuts.

I guess it's cheaper than testing different bows every year!   :D

I tend to be just the opposite. I don't like change. It was hard for me to try the VPA. I like them but haven't connected yet with them.

you sound like me with knives and flahlights!
But with Broadheads i tend to just stick with one style. I have tried many over the years but settled on the ones i like best and just stick with them.

I can totally understand wanting to try a bunch of them and allways looking for the next best thing. Like i said i di that same thing with knives and lights. Its an addiction!

LB hntr I know what you mean about knives and flashlights. A man can never have to many of either.
I have one primary weapon for each season that I have put a lot of effort in finding the "one" but when it comes to broadheads, knives, flashlights or even hunting/backpacking packs I can always use another.   :banghead:

I am kind of in the middle I'll tinker with something if I actually think I may be able to get it sharper or use it better but not to the point of trying every new head out there. I've tried a few and have really come almost full circle to what I started hunting with almost 9 years ago zwickey deltas except now I am using the 4 blades.

Never tried Stos??

I have tried several others but at the moment I'm pretty stuck on the stos heads. I would like to try some Simmons as well though.

I don't change around very much. I tend to use Magnus and Zwickie almost exclusively.

I have a bunch of STOS and snuffers.  I stick with them.  I might switch to something else if I ever run out of what I have, but like I said, I have a bunch.  I might be dead first.

I have the sickness too.  However, I'm getting pretty stuck on Simmons and Zwickey deltas.  I like a woodsman for a 3 blade and Stos too.

Rob, I admit, I have the same "affliction" also!  Its all good!  Have fun, life is too short to only shoot one broadhead when there are so many good ones out there.   :archer:

I have the same problem with broadheads and flashlights. I'm trying to make myself settle to just Tigersharks and VPA 3 blades but I have to try the new Grizzlys this year.

I really like Woodsman Elites and VPA three blade heads in the heavier non-vented versions.  They're very easy to sharpen and fly great for me.  One of these days I'd like to explore some of the good two blade heads available.
