I wondering about the fit of these Woodyweights. I am adding a 75 grn behing 125 grn tips and it seems the fit could be a little better? I'm using 11/32 and the taper doesn't go in all the way. How is everyone elses looking? Can anyone post a pic?

They are a good idea...just need some adjustments in sizing. I have 11/32" wood shafts and got the ones for those. But when you go to glue on a 11/32" broadhead it sticks out too far...doesn't seat back far enough I don't think.
 Are you suppose to use 23/64" glue-on heads with the 11/32"??????

I use them w/ lighter heads to get them to 200 gr and love them. they fit great and are easy to use. strong steel too.

Snag: I have not had a problem with:
zwickey
grizzly
snuffer
woodsmans


They seem to align perfectly and are very strong with a strong bond. make sure there isn't too much glue. the tolerance is tight so you really dont need much

I agree about the tolerances Overspined. They do fit tight...but with STOS and Abowyer heads they don't seat down to the collar...?

On the smaller shafts, cut a little bit off the shaftend so they don't bottom out..also works great on an arrow that broke close to the broadhead (where most arrows break) lets you re-use the shaft..Mike will help you out. Will wokr with any broadhead..call hhime. Check out the sitefor number woodywieghts.com. Woodyweights is one word

The woodyweights are a great product! I spoke with Mike at the Kalamazoo expo and he was a great guy with alot of knowledge.
For those that are interested,Braveheart Archery has another way to add weight up front, it is listed under the Surewood shafts.
