I just noticed the width of the Steel force BH that I decided on a month ago are one 1" wide Hellfire Titanium! IS this too narrow for ELK?
Shoting 2314 at total weight of 445grains. Arrows shoot like a frozen rope and I mean dead on!!
THOUGHTS ????

Those heads are an excelent choice for elk or any other animal for that matter. One thing you have to remember is that that 1" cut is using 4 blades instead of two or three. If you actually sit down to figure it out you will probably actually have more tissue cut than a three blade head of 1 3/16" cutting diameter and you would need a 2" cutting diameter head if only using two blades to get the same ammount of cutting surface.
You won' t have any problems in taking an elk with your heads. They should penetrate well for you and do a lot of damage on their way through.

Actually, it maHly...though I guess I' m pretty maNly as well [8D]
look on Steel force' s web page. they' ve been asked by dangerous game hunters/outfitters to make heads no biger than 1" .
2 little holes beat 1 bigger hole.
