I keep seeing a banner on her eadvertising the NAP Scorpions but I don' t see anything on their website about them nor can I find anywhere to buy them. Where can I get more information on them?

Thanks,

Mike

I saw them at the ATA show & they look like a winner! I am sure you will be seeing them a lot in magazines in the very near future. It looks like a very good broadhead.

OB, Did you catch what size cutting diameter they have ?

Not sure on this but I think they are 1-1/8 - please don' t hold me to it! I saw so many broadheads at the show! really only a few really caught my eye.

From what information I have gathered they are 1 1/8 cutting dia. They have a cut-on-contact insert in the tip like the Sniper head. They use an o-ring system simmilar to the NAP Shockwave, which hopfully means they open just as quickly as the Shockwaves. It looks like a great setup to me.

Mike.
You should be able to get them from Red Sands dont know if they have any in stock yet.
But you could call them and find out

Check the site out, the info is finally up.

Well from the info given and the looks of the head it is basicly an update shockwave with a cut on contact tip. That' s not a bad thing for sure. The shockwaves are one of the best mechanicals now on the market, and this new replaceable tip should improve the head. I will have to get a hold of some for testing, but I would bet they will do very well.

Hopefully the price tag will mirror the shockwaves instead of the spitfires. Looks like a good conservative mech. head, for sure.

My commentary on this design is that it appears not to offer too many advantages over a regular ShockWave whose tip is filed sharp. I used Shockwaves for a couple of seasons when I shot a compound and had great results.
Also, I chose not to use the O-ring; I found I had better, reproducible flight using dental/orthodontic elastic bands (similar to those on Steelheads) as a retention system. This arrangement is not sanctioned by NAP, though.
just my 2 cents.
