Thread: Archery Broadhead Schools of Thought

Hey,

For your bowhunters out there I got a few questions for you.

1. What type of edge do you prefer: serrated or smooth?

2. What type of bevel do you prefer: single bevel or double?

3. And for you honers out there, how sharp do you like them?

4. Finally is there something called "too sharp"?

For me these is my answers:

1. Smooth. Better penetration from smooth cutting rather than ripping. Plus I think ripping causes the clotting factors in the prey's blood to kick up quicker than with a smooth scalpel cut

2. Single Bevel. Creates a slight corkscrew effect once penetration begins

3. I don't know hoping to get answers from you guys. Right now the thought the lowest angle that keeps the edge throughout its job without edge failure. But still looking for that edge.

4. So far No.
