RE: ATA Show-Broadheads, drop-aways and gimmicks
Well I just got back in last night about 3:30. I have 3 brand new broadheads with me, and should be getting some more as they come into production. Nap has two new heads, both look very promising, tough, small and as always well built. Rocky mtn has one new head that looks alot like the New Nap head, and both look much like the Rocket "ultimate steel". Rocky's head has reversable blades to match the helical of your fletchings. The other Nap head rotates like the Razorback, but is a solid blade design similar to the Montecs. It's really hard to describe them without having a picture. I also have a new mechanical head that I think has some potential, especial for those who like a delayed opening style. It's called the Hypershock. At first glance it may not look like much, but it does have some nice features. I also have a Razorcap in my hands, and it looks to be a winner. G5 has an 85 grn montec coming out and hopefully I will have some of them to test. The one head that really got my attention was the new 85 grn Magnus stinger 4 blade. It's a small little cut on contact that should fly like a dart. They also have a 125 grn version of the same head comming out. American broadhead company has a new had thats differnt than any other head on the market. It's a small three blade cut on contact style. All steel and the blades are replaceable. I also have a pack of Zwickey eskimos for you traditional guys.
NAP also has a new vane out this year that really impressed me. Hopefully I will have some to try out soon. They promise better broadhead flight and arrow control, and the logic is sound.
As soon as the weather breaks I will get out and try the new heads out and get the info out.
On the tree stand front Summit also has a new "foot control" that eliminates those pain in the #@%!Q# straps. Just slip your foot in and start climing. They also have a new ladder stand that looks tough as a tank and has a really comfortable seat.
Sorry to be so long winded, but their lots to see and so little time!
