More really good info, this time on the effectiveness of single-bevel broadheads.

RE: Ashby has another great article on broadhead performance
From what I hear, there are a few manufacturers that pay very close attention to his studies. I'm not sure when any of this will become mainstream knowledge, but I'm hoping it's quick. The information he is providing is eye-opening and disspelling many myths of arrow lethality.

Interesting stuff!!!
Perhaps the few companies that "spiral" their blades (Rocky turbo, Rocket, Crimson Talon, etc.) also create a degree of mechanical advantage. Of course these heads are not near as heavy and have multiple blades thus theoretically having less energy and more drag.
Thanks for sharing....

I'm pretty much set on what I'm going to shoot out of the 3 bows I'll hunt with this year. I might order some Outbacks to play around with and shoot them out of my longbow.

SA.
He had some done up in 170gr and those are the one I am waiting for.
I already have the 50gr brass insert to get me back to where I am now with the Muzzy Phantoms @ 200gr

I couldn't resist and ended up ordering the 140 gr Supremes.
Which model is he making those in?
