The Silver Flames have a great reputation, and it is probably well deserved. However, one of Dr Ashby's reports dealt with broad heads. The silver flame didn't do as well for himas several much cheaper broadheads.

Dr Ashby settled on the Grizzley two blade. I think that he used the 190 grain, but don't have time right now to look it up.

There are several of Dr Ashby's reports posted on Tradgang.com They have a whole section just for him.

Bruce, I look forward to meeting you at the seminar. Be sure to bring lots of questions for Len. My list is already about 20 questions long.
True, the Grizzly broadhead in Dr. Ashby's study turned out to be the best of the best. The drawback to that, from my persepctive, is that the Grizzly is a glue on broadhead, as were many of the cheaper broadheads that performed better than the Silverflame. The Silverflame, on the other hand, was reported to be the best of the screw-in broadheads in the study (at least if memory serves me correctly, typically a BAD assumption!).

I hope you and Bruce will pass along any delightful tidbits you learn atLen's seminar, ....
