Title: Broadhead blade rules
Post by: huntnfmly on June 16, 2020, 04:43:39 PM
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

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!

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.
