Title: Can you still get Zephyr broadheads
Post by: Huntschool on August 03, 2018, 12:18:06 PM: I have looked around and can not seem to find anyone listing these BH's. I Have used both the Sasquatch and the Scirocco on my AD Stingers and Trad Hunters with great results. I would like to get some back ups.......

It has been quite some time since I last bought any and I guess they may have gone out of business. Any info appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Thanks guys. I was afraid they may have gone under.

wingnut:

As soon as I saw your post I remembered that Horne was involved with them. I seem to remember him buying them out or something.

Thanks again.

Post by: Dave Lay on August 03, 2018, 02:11:07 PM: The sasquatches were the only zephyr head I used and they were a great killing head but had construction problems or I would have stocked up on them. I believe I killed the bear in my avatar with one

Post by: Alexander Traditional on August 03, 2018, 02:14:58 PM: I stocked up on the Siricco from Kustom King. They were by far the sharpest out of the box head I've ever bought. They don't seem to be very tough though.

I had heard, back when, that they were not "tough" but I have one Sasquatch that has been through 4 deer and one hog and is still in great shape.

Dave Lay:

What were the construction problems ?

Hermon:

Thanks..... let me know.

Post by: Dave Lay on August 03, 2018, 04:24:05 PM: Hopefully I don’t double post.. having phone issues:the Sasquatch could almost be a perfect head the critters I killed with it died very quickly and left a nice blood trail. but I had several break welds where the main blade was welded on. I’ve heard of others suffering the same problems I had.
See pic, I called mark Horne about it several years ago and he felt maybe I was getting them to hot during mounting so I epoxied a few and still had a couple break the welds. I even had one break in a foam target. I loved the head, stainless, wide vented blade with a removable bleeder. It took a edge well and like all zephyr heads it was precision made. I still have a couple around

I have not suffered that problem with any of my Sasquatch heads. Perhaps I am just lucky.

I also love the head for its cut channel. Lots of red stuff and quick flow from the target even with lower poundage (45 lb) The head I mentioned above is still on my #1 arrow
(Arrow Dynamics Stinger, yellow) in a quiver on an old Black Widow MA (non FF) with the frost finish hanging over my shoulder as I type this.

I like these broadheads.......

Go ahead. I am going to keep looking for some Sasquatch heads. Good luck with the Scirocco heads.

I think I'll call him and see if he has any laying around, looking for a home.

Post by: Possum Head on August 06, 2018, 10:10:05 PM: Got hold of him Bruce and it ain’t gonna happen. Best wishes. Not sure how to pm since the conversion. I like the profile and understand why you like them. Only killed one with a Sasquatch and she ran 20 yds and laid down
