New Steelforce turkey broadhead
I was scanning my new Cabelas catalog and noticed this new broadhead.
The serrated edges are facing forward and the bleeder blade is serrated as well. This might be something to try this Spring. |
Here it is
|
Ouch looks deadly!
|
I might just pickup some before the fellowship hunt.
|
Timm, I was just going to use steelforce broadheads with a game stopper behind them, but I'll have to sight in, tune and pratice with the new weight. This might be an option, but even though the barbs face forward, I still feel or wonder if these heads will blow through a turkey!
|
I would imagine they would but the barbs would grab and hold so much stuff the bird would not go very far.
|
been watching the outdoor channel and the turkey hunts. I have not seen these used yet, but many of these shows (read all) use mechanicals. Seems the 2 1/4 to 3 inch cut is waht they look for and the birds do not fly off, however I did see one fly with the arrow in it with a 2 blade fixed. Boy was that weird.
|
Since we cannot use mechs on this trip, these babys might be our ticket to some fresh turkey. :D
|
Timm, I think you might be right. I'm going to call Cabela's and order a three-pak. I'm sure they will fly identical to my other steelforce, so I wonn't have to change anything.
|
Cool.
Just have to make sure I don't get this broadhead confused with the regular steelforce when hog hunting. |
Well, even if you do get them confused that wouldn't be as bad as the guy that went bear hunting and shot a blunt at the bear!
I ordered the broadheads online from Cabela's. They're run about $31. with shipping. |
Well I bet that bear was pissed!
Not a bad price. |
What's the grain weight of this head?
I may get me some of the new razorheads and take a file to them. 31 bucks for three seems kinda steep. JMHO. Sure looks like a mean head though. |
That's a total price which includes shipping.
Drive down to your local archery shop and buy some. Then add up the cost of fuel, tire wear, and your time and see what it cost you. :D |
If I didn't shoot wood arrows, I might just give them a try.
But, I was thinking that maybe I'd use some of the razorheads with my 2117s for turkeys. I can put a washer or something on them to keep 'em from passing completely through. Still want a razor sharp edge though. Helps ensure slicing vitals instead of pushing them out of the way. But, I suppose the seration would help in that too. Hmm. :D |
