Default RE: Best Elk Broadhead

carvingame, I have had such good luck with either of the heads in terms of flight/poithat I really don't need many shots into the target with them. The first time I tried the magnus or steelforce I basicallyshot the lot on each arrow I had selected for hunting.Now I just remove one from the package "deem it as my practice head" and spin on each arrow in my quiver.With thesteelforce even after a few shots into a high density foam target were stillshave your hairsharp!! Being I was a muzzy shooter prior I'd say aftershots into the foam target they were still sharper than muzzy out of the package.

I sharpen all BH's on a lansky, it only takes a few passes to knock the burrs off with the medium stone and then switch to the fine to finish it. I have never reused a broadhead after it has been thru an animal. FYI, Steelforce will resharpen your used heads in the off season for the cost of shipping, if you desire.

For broadheads I use the 4" high density foam targets with the removable center inserts as Ispin off theBH before removing the arrow. They are reasonable enough,small/easy to pack withand work.
