I've used the Single Bevels for several years now, they are
Everything I want in a BH. They are easy to sharpen, tough,
And penetrate like no other head I've ever used.
  There are several good ones on the market. But since Bill
Dunn has redesigned the Grizzly, it's all I use. Been the demise of several really big critters, anything will work on deer,
But when you need PENETRATION, it's the only way to go.

All 7 critters I shot this year were shot with single bevel heads: a Meathead from Joe Furlong at Tuffhead. The blood trails were spectacular affairs, like I have never seen really. I am a believer!

Is there any single bevel you would recommend that is 125g screw in for carbon arrows?

Archer1977 ...

I've never seen one so I can't really recommend it.....though I'll bet they're a fine head.

The only 125 grain, single bev, screw in head I can think of is the 125 grain Badger.

I use grizzly broadheads out of all my stickbows and can't say enough good about them. Great blood trails and very short tracking jobs.  Took me a bit to figure how to get them sharp but thanks to the guys here at tradgang I can sharpen them quick and lethal.

A Grizzly 160g saved me when this buck ducked and turned the moment I shot.
     

I read the interview in TBM with Bill... I was really impressed with what all went into building his BH's. Keep it up Bill!!

I just switched to RMSG's Cutthroat single beveled heads. I can't comment on bloodtrails or holes yet but I've never got a BH this sharp. This is also my first single beveled head. They have a lifetime warrenty and are made of one solid piece of steel so no weak spots. They did have some trouble with the tip curling so they have improved that. But again they stand behind their product and would replace it if something happened.

The Badger is a fine broadhead as well. I killed a pig or two with them.RC

I'll cast another vote for Grizzly. I use the 200 grain version, sharpen with a cheap file and get great results.

The last animal I shot before my shoulder blew up was a medium sized pig. I was using a Abowyer single bevel and the fellow that saw me shoot the pig ( on the run ) just laughed when I said something about getting ready to track the pig. He then just pointed and there was the pig about 50 feet away, bled out.

Thanks folks, hunted with one a buddy built for me this year but got skunked so wasn't able to see any results first hand. Love the way they fly and penetrate a target. Haven't talked to anyone with first hand experience, again thanks for the input.
