Broadhead blade rules

[huntnfmly]

Does the back of the broadhead blade still need to be slightly tapered forward?
Thought that use to be a rule but can not see anything on it now.
Thanks for any info

Thanks man thats all i could find and i was just making sure i wasn't missing something.
I was just looking at and  like the slick trick grizz broadhead but  the blade goes straight across

I don't remember that being the requirement, I believe prior to 2015 the rule was only that it had to be 90.

If STs were illegal then...oops!

We are just getting back into archery and yes about the 90 i didn't remember if it was atleast 90 and forward or just forward.
Thanks again

90 degrees to the shaft, not the cutting edge of the head. The rear could not angle at all towards the tip. But that's all mute now anyway.
