Too bad a broadhead has to also be sharp and retain that sharpness to be effective at putting animals down quick.

I've thought on this one for a bit now and can't for the life of me figure out what shooting any broadhead into bullet proof glass is going to prove.

 :yeah: nev seen any animals with a glass shield over there vitals...maybe i gota get back to hunting those urban critters

shoulder blades an ballistic gel covered with leather would be a pretty sweet target...but seems kinda redundant since everyone already knows slick tricks would win  :chuckle: :chuckle:

It will prove that after hunting season and before 3-D season bowhunters get bored enough to ruin perfectly good equipment to evaluate the least important feature of broadhead design.  Duh  :chuckle:

Ive taken everything to the shuttle t black ops to get them sharp, nothing worked to give them an edge that I wanted. Having said that I got a pass through a doe this year at 65 yards shooting a 430 grain arrow at 250 fps. Ill continue using them after seeing that and they fly like darts. I will say that my montecs were a whole lot "tougher" considering there one piece stainless steel design but I could never get them to fly that well. I believe a one piece steel design will win the "toughest broadhead" challenge rather than a broad head with replaceable blades. Just because there tough doesnt mean that there better though  :twocents:
