Recently, I got a gift in the mail of a howard hill head that I requested on this site. Great head. Does anybody shoot there great heads and if not, why not? I do understand that they are more difficult to sharpen. Thanks.
I tried them could not sharpen them well. They flew very good. I think if you file them it is the best way to sharpen them, good luck.
I got a dozen about 10 years ago but I had the same problems as many in that I cannot sharpen them. :confused:
...and they do fly great. ;)
I've used them for years and they aren't any harder to sharpen than other heads, but because of the concave blade edge, I use a round chainsaw file. File from back to front and it puts a jagged file edge that is very sharp. A good head, very tough on bone. It doesn't rate as high on concrete blocks as other heads do, but then I don't hunt concrete very often. They fly very well under all conditions.
The "wheelie" sharpener from Simmons does a great job of sharpening them.
Great replies. Thanks much!!
