Title: Broadhead Collecting
Post by: Thare1774 on August 12, 2012, 01:18:00 AM
Hello all! I recently started a small broadhead collection and would love to know of any good online sources for finding more. Are there any collector websites or organizations? I googled ABCC and didn't get much info on em. Also, feel free to post pictures of any vintage heads you have, I'd love to see em!

I've got a buddy in tacoma with a pretty impressive bh collection.....including full arrows by many of the greats, bow that killed the non typ world rec, pics, letters, and I'm sure more stuff in storage.   I'll see if I cant get info for you.   We both work some pretty wild schedules and I'm headed out here in a couple of days....if you cant find anything or I dont get back (I'll forget my name if I dont find my drivers liscense ;D), drop me an email.

I would suggest joining the ABCC. Every serious broadhead collector I know is a member. I'm not a menber, because I kinda quit collecting BHs but there's a wealth of information shared in the ABCC newsletter and at gatherings by their members.

I'm living proof that you can be cured from the broadhead collecting addiction. At least for a period of time.

The ABCC does not have a website but if you google  Amercian Broadhead Collectors Club , you should find more information, including an application for membership.

Speaking of pictures, we always enjoy seeing pictures of broadheads   :)

I posted to your thread on the other forum and I asked if you belonged to the ABCC and you did not answer nor ask for more info.
There are over 3000 broadheads listed in the ABCC master list. Hundreds of Fishpoints listed in the ABCC fish point master list. Hundreds of members world wide.
