How do you....
 

How do you justify spending close to 40 dollars on broadheads?
Im wondering if there will ever be a break with this sport.
Is it rly expensive your first year then cheaper the rest of your life?

RE: Hpw do you....
 

I dont justify it, im too broke and cheap, my broadheads are 12.99 a pack...( yet to see if they are any good, tho i know of a guy who has killed many with em )

RE: How do you....
 

There is no break in this sport.

Archery is like the gasoline industry. Just keeps going higher and higher.

RE: How do you....
 

yeah but i dont have to buy another 3ft od bubber tubing for ym peep again next year. I dont have to buy new broadheads next year.

RE: How do you....
 

You will be surprised at what you want to buy each and every year of bowhunting. (it's an addicting sport)

Don't get me wrong, I have known many archers that stick with their gear from year to year.

But I also knowmany more archers who upgrade equipment every year.

Almost every year I need new arrows, nocks, field tips andserving thread.

Every other year I need a new string on the bow, wax, usually mole skin, some camo (gets ripped in the brush from year to year), etc.

RE: How do you....
 

I end up buying each year...2pkts of broad heads
1dz arrows
2dz hand warmers
lots of camo
and the latest gadget of some kind

thats just the start of the season

ill be getting a new bow next year and its looking to be about 800 bucks. What are parents for tho?

RE: How do you....
 

If you don't buy a new bow (including site, rest, quiver)every year it's cheaper in the upfront cost.

If you treat your equipment right the arrows, possibly broadhead blades, serving and maybe new string will be required each year.

RE: How do you....
 

I've spent $90 on broadheads so far this year.

I've spent close to $300 on new arrows.

How do I justify it?

When you think about it, it isn't our $1,200 bow, it isn't our $600 scent lok clothing, it isn't the $300 trail cam, its the arrow and broadhead that get the job done. Out of all of our equipment, the only part that ever comes into contact with a live animal is the arrow and broadhead.

I spend as much as I can afford to to ensure that I have the most lethal set-up I can afford.

I tried cabelas f3 broadheads last year. I shot a do from about twenty yards and the broadhead never past completly through. The thing fell apart, all three blades fell out and even the tip came off. These were $20 for a six pack. I will be staying away from cheap crap
