Eric....Looks deadly and useful for sure.
bjrogg....Like the primitive look man.More so than mine.I usually take at least 3 arrows with me.Using zwickey or stoss arrowheads though......shame .....shame.I read crookedarrow made his gilley suit out of burlap.That's cool too.My santa claus is me or the ups man.

Thanks, Yep, if fact that is their names, Osage is king /Yew is Queen.

The shafts turned out a little heaver than I like, I prefer 525 to 575 grain but I think these will work ok they came in closer to 650-675.

Looking good Chris....I like those cat quivers too.Deadly combo there.That's some dark osage already.I've gotta try those grizzly points sometime.I bought so many other like zwickey and stos earlier I've go to use up yet.

Thanks guys. I like a long, simple bow for hunting. No overlays, or any glue for that matter on this one. The bow is stained that color, it was electric yellow before.

Ed the Grizzly heads are nice to sharpen, I suppose that could be said for any single bevel. Make a burr from the beveled side and dust it off on the back side. Pretty simple to get sharp. I haven't shot a deer with them yet, same reason as you. I have Eskimos I really like and always use. This year I'm changing that.

I use to use the Grizzly several years ago, that do a good job. Like most any good 2 bladed head, if you do your part they will do theirs.

Nice looking gear guys.

Do you guys pay attention to the fletchings when you use single bevel points? Right vs. Left according to which side the bevel is on the point? Someone pointed that out to me at mojam, something I had never thought of before.

PEARL DRUMS · « **Reply #27 on:** September 13, 2016, 10:05:15 am »

I do, but I doubt it matters. Seems like one of those things overbearing glass guys would come up with because they get bored with their store bought gear

He was a wheelie bow shooter.

Most don't know, they just repeat what they hear or read.

Think of it this way. On a double bevel head lets say your bevel wasn't even side to side, one was longer than that other. Bet it still flies perfectly.
