You need any help with any of that, you let me know.  :chuckle:

Until the new ones come out, I'll still be shooting my Savora's, circa 1983.

They are not that old!   :chuckle:

I think Mark and I designed that one in '92 with first production delivery '94 if I'm not mistaken.  Still one heck of a broadhead!  Probably the best combination of flight, cut and terminal performance still today.  Since then the Squaw, Crazy Larry and myself have a long list of critters taken with it using bows from the Lorraine's 214fps to some I tested recently with hunting arrow speeds exceeding 320.  It's a good one and will return to the lineup once I can make them at a price point everyone can afford.

I'll be up looking at that property by your place this week.  Real Estate agent thinks I can get that piece and the one next to it for less than the asking price of just the one.  Just need to find a screw machine operator and/or programmer in Shelton.  That might be harder than finding the right property!

1983, 1993, whatever.  They are still the best broadheads I've ever used!  The only one of the 5 I tried that would fly on my arrows.  Thank you again.

What do you expect from someone who doesn't know what a dink or a dinker is?  :o

Unless he really is a racist, plays tennis, is married with no kids or works with leather ;)  And if he replaces his hairy hole with a rip cord I think his friends and family might need to rethink their relationship  :chuckle:

I told him I could put on a old golden key rest I have laying around the house but he wants a drop away.  He set on buying a QAD so he can be like me.

I am still an old school NAP 100 grain Thunderhead believer.  If it aint broke don't fix it.  When I switched to 2" blazer vanes I was told a long broadhead wouldn't work with them and I would have to go to a G5 or a slick trick.  Something about a long broadhead and short vane I would have planing problems.   I stuck with the Thunderheads and they fly just fine for me.
Pain is temporary, achieving the goal is worth it.

I didn't say it would be easy, I said it would be worth it.

Every father should remember that one day his children will follow his example instead of his advice.

Many good quality heads that all do the job equally.  It is like the Ford, Chevy, Dodge debate.  Boils down to brand loyalty with no real practical reason behind it.  Pick the proper grain and stick to it, you can't go wrong.
It's a TIKKA thing..., you may not understand.
