Simmons Broadheads

Thinking of trying them.
Looking at the 135 2 blade.
Any opinions or thoughts.
Kinda pricey for 3 (can get 6 other name brand) for same price
Just wonder if they are worth the price
My forst and only trad deer was killed with one (but the deer jumped the string and I spine shot it)
Did the job, but no tracking to see what blood trail was like.
Let me know

They are a great broadhead made by an excellent company. If you do a search on here there are threads showing Simmons kills. They are very impressive

Just type in Simmons sharks on the web and look at "images" - shows all grades of Simmons carnage. About any head these days are expensive and sold in threes - ? -

I had a Simmons head given to me for a ST. Judes hunt a couple years ago. It had already seen it's fair share of use when I got it. I have since killed a few deer with that one head.
I finally this year bought more to go with it but will be shooting that head first. Worth it? Yup.

I love them! I have taken about 25 to 30 animals with them in the past 5 years. I honestly don't see ever going away from a concave edge again. The amount of blood on the ground in consistently good and sometimes borderline amazing. I have shot lots of different heads over the years and think these heads have it all. Wide cut, deep penetration, awesome bloodtrails and very accurate / no windplaning.

carnage is the only word to describe a pass through lung shot with these heads.

I just bought some 165 grain glue on Tree Sharks and glued them onto 75 grain inserts for a 240 grain broadhead. I haven't shot anything other than foam with them but they are well built, fly great, fly quiet, and penetrate the foam well. Looking forward to trying them on deer and elk this fall.

I've used them the last couple years, Tiger Sharks & Land Sharks. Blew thru 2 ribs on a buck last year,Great Blood trail. Dave is a great person to deal with. I see no need to shoot any other head.
Good Luck

I convereted a couple years ago (was a long time zwickey and magnus user) I have no plans on switching. I have used one 205 safari all year for practice (shooting 20-100 shots per day most every day at a sand target with stones in it) and I could sharpen it up today and use it for hunting. They are good head and 6 heads should last many seasons.
