Saw the other thread regarding Abowyer and Grizzly broadheads...wondering whether someone has had opportunity to compare them with the GrizzlyStiks lineup. I just received some 175 gr. Samurai bh's and I am very impressed. :thumbsup: Any thoughts?

Wow, am I the only one who has some? :readit: :cool:
Tim,
I was thinking about trying some for my Africa trip this summer. Are they really, really sharp (I mean shaving sharp)?
They look like a single bevel Silver Flame (Markus at SF thinks the same....)
Scott, yes they are very sharp. Not "Silver Flame sharp", but then nothing is. I really wish Markus would develope a single bevel head. One thing I can say for sure, these Samurai's fly perfectly out of my bow. You can feel the twisting effect when extracting them from a foam target as well. :saywhat:
I guess I just can't justify spending more on 3 broadheads than I did my first trad bow! I am glad to hear you like them!

You make a good point, Jamie...imagine my disappointment if I hadn'd liked them. :saywhat: I plan on using them on my hog hunt at Ray's in July. I will take lots of pics and post a report on how they performed.
I have been looking at those same broadheads for a while. Plan to pick some up for this seasons elk trip. Only thing that bothers me with them is the aluminum ferule, but you cant make a steel one in 175gr. How well are they holding an edge?
