Madmans 100s had no problem accidently slicing through steel kitchen wares... thought it would atleast ricochet off to the side. Nope. Tip bit, and kept on going. Literally zero damage to the head.

That's a pretty cool deal Smossy!  Something I might need to add in testing new stuff.

Accidental testing is often the best.  One of the reason's we never accept lab testing alone when approving a head.

I had an early prototype of the Ti-Con that passed every single lab test I could think of.  Zero failures and some quick kills right out of the gate.  But got it into the hands of a few other field guys and we quickly found a flaw in the durability of the ferrule.  Luckily accidental testing was successful in showing us the weakness before we brought it to market.

One of the reasons Justin Llanes is so important to our success.  It's not necessarily all the goats, pigs, and sheep he shoots, but the punishment all that big island lava rock puts on a ferrule.  Just can't duplicate that in the lab

The new Rival 100 is about three weeks away from it's official launch. Ferrules are completed, website is a week away from being updated, only thing left is the waiting on official packaging.

We have so many who have inquired if these would be available before late season we thought we would run an "Early Bird Special" on a limited supply of both the Rival HPV100 and the Rival LPV100 packaged in poly bags. Afterall what could be more fun than getting new archery stuff before it's officially available, right?

These packs will come with everything you would get in the normal packaging including the extra set of blades. Official pricing for the Rival HPV100 and Rival LPV100 will be $39.99/3pk. This "Early Bird Special" will have a price of $32.99/3pk while supplies last (25 of each blade style).

We are ready for immediate shipping!!!

Ordering for this early special will not be available through our online store. Orders can be taken by email (sales@radicalarchery.com) or by phone (866-396-1120).

Stardard shipping & handling via USPS First Class Mail is $3.95. Priority 2 to 3 day is $7.95. WA sales tax applies to Washington delivery addresses.
