Title: ODD BROADHEADS
Post by: wildcat hunter on November 10, 2011, 07:26:00 PM

I was given 6 arrows with broadheads, I'm curious about the broadheads. They are 4 pieces of metal, 2 are the "blades and they have a "rounded cap ( goes over the shaft, one on each side) welded to them. These rounded caps have Small lifted "blades on them. At first look I thought they were inserts but no, they are a perminate part of the broadhead. Sorry, I have no camera for pictures. Any ideas on the history of these.

Without pics they almost sound like Trail-eze heads.

If by "cap" you mean the ferrule.

Fleetwood Panther?

I am a member of the American Broadhead Collector Club and can tell you there are over 3,000 known broadheads and more poping up each year. Without a pic or more info it's very hard to ID a BH

Great pictures, Looks like the Smith Panther. The small blade is "lifted up" from the same side as the picture and the large blade has a curve on the backside as in the picture. I'll try to get someone to take a picture for me but as it looks like its a Smith Panther.
Thanks Stumpkiller and everybody
