Anyone know if any manufacturer makes broadheads that are tempered black or tempered any other way as to not allow for the sun to shine off them as much as the regular ones?

I thought my hunting partner was giving a distress signal from his tree last weekend?

i had the same problem, i took a black magic marker and colored the blades. seems to cut down on the shine. i don' t like anything to be glistening when a deer is 10 yards away.

When I shot rifle competition we used a front sight black that came in an aerosol can. The stuff was light powder and odorless. I am sure you can still buy it. As a substitute you can smoke the blades with a candle.

Regardless of what substance you use, you will have to do it when you load. Otherwise, the foam in the quiver will wipe the blades clean.

I use Muzzy 4 blades. Before assembling them I scuff them with some fine sandpaper. (Not the edges) Just to dull the finish. As far as I can tell it doesn' t affect the performance.
