It's funny though that Ashby has been doing these studies for years now. I thas only been recentthat people and companies have started to listen. For a long time the only one really offered was the Grizzly.

The way I look at it, a good hit is a good hit and as long as the broadhead is scary sharp, most often a good result will result. But you never know when a bad hit will show up. If the SB gives more penetration potential by how it splits bone rather than trying to force it's way through, that's a plus that at least creates the potential for turning a bad hit into a good result. Anything I can do to put the odds in my favor.
After examining the SB outback supreme, I ordered some, and look forward to having them in my quiver this fall.

Burnie, have you read the good Dr.s test reports?

Yea, I read his reports often. Once ive used up what ive got, ill probably find a good single bevel broadhead.

I honestly wonder if a single bevel makes that big of a difference.
When you posted this, this is really what I was asking about. There's a big difference between Asiatic buffalo and whitetail deer, even the big bucks
Has anyone shooting traditional DB heads had bad experiences with poor penetration from shoulder hits? If yes what poundage bow and what distance was the shot?
I'd love to hear about positive experiences with a shoulder shot as well.

I'm going to modify some of my Magnus II's into single bevel with tanto tips this season and give them a try. Then I'll decide if I'm on the bandwagon or not.
Whats the difference between single and double bevels? I might sound kind of dumb here but I'd never read much into single or double bevel stuff. I'm guessing my 3 blade Snuffers are double beveled?
On a single bevel, the bevel is all on a single side and the other side remains flat. So, the edge is along one side of the blade. On broadheads, the bevels are on opposite sides. If you're looking at the head laying on a table, there will be a bevel on one blade and the other will be flat.
Like this:
A double bevel is beveled down to the edge from each side, and the edge is centered in the middle of the thickness of the blade, like on your Snuffers.
Are you on the single bevel bandwagon?
