Post by: bigbadjon on December 08, 2018, 03:10:17 PM: Even at the normal price that is a tempting buy... but I still have some Silver Flames so I better hold out. My fear is that these are good products that don't appeal to the CX market and they'll be discontinued before I get my turn.

Post by: GCook on December 08, 2018, 05:10:17 PM: A concern of mine as well that's why I snatched up another dozen.
Along with some Black Eagle vintage shafts, feathers. . . Let's just say it got expensive quickly.

I shoot 50# at my 29”DL. I will shoot these at smaller pigs (say up to 100#, or so), but will pull out a narrower head like a Magnus Stinger for bigger pigs.

I'll take a different route on them in the future myself. Shot all the way through this sow over the weekend.(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20181213/f1378f9bc541e46c0497be716277e4d6.jpg)
