Title: Ben Pearson Deadheads
Post by: Zander on September 15, 2008, 09:06:00 PM
Hi, guys!

I have 3 Ben Pearson 150gr Deadhead broadheads still in original packaging (pkg is kinda rough).  I'm wondering what they would be worth.

 :confused:    :help:

Can you post a picture of them?  I'd like to see the actual packaging they came in.

Thanks Josh. There is a small company in Oregon I believe that makes a reproduction call the Dreadhead.

Actually the small company is in Washington, Buck broadheads, they used to make the Dreadhead but if I am not mistaken the no longer manufacture them.

I recently acquired a dozen of the large ones. Have 6 mounted up and ready to go. Very easy to get these shaving sharp.

Ted,
Yep you are correct, Washington. Don't know why I was thinking Oregon  :knothead:

I got a dozen or so from a guy in MI who produced them for a while.  For such a wide broadhead, they fly like darts

I have a few and Vermonster is right- very easy to get really sharp. Gonna take them hunting one of these seasons.                      Grant

They probably came out of Robin Hood Archery in New jersey or Anderson Archery out of Michigan. I have 4 of the smaller Deadheads mounted on my hunting arrows for this fall. Hopefully will get a chance to arrow a nice fat doe with it. I found that by aligning them perfectly horizontal, I don't get any planing or whistling.
