In the market for some Grizzly broadheads eventually, but was wondering just how lethal these things are...
Anyone have any pictures of some game taken with their grizzlies?

Those are my only two so far but I'm working on it.Both were sharpened on the KME.The doe went down in 35 yds,a pass through.
The buck was at a trot and the Grizzly cut through the humerus,just in front of the elbow.It poked out the opposite shoulder but the shaft snapped off,just behind the head,the head staying in.This is the damage on the exit shoulder,no doubt caused from running.Those broadheads were sharp.

Hi Clint,
Lookin for Grizzly BHD kill shots and stories? If you go to our website, you'll find 9 or 10 in the KME Trophy Room. (Some have the stories to go with the picture). Go to the KME home page, click on BHD sharpeners and you'll see the link to the trophy room at the top of the page.
JimB, Very nice! :thumbsup: I'd love to add your pics (and any info you might like to share) to the KME Trophy Room too. Thanks,
Ron
That is one heck of a hole in that shoulder! Sharpster where on the site?
J
thanks ron
190 Grizzly 190.. :D

almost all of my trad kills are with griz heads! I shoot between 2 and 5 deer per year. If you get them extremely sharp, they are great. Ever since I started using stones and strops to finish them off I get shaving heads and GREAT blood trails you wouldn't expect from 2 blade heads. Most of the deer drop within sight, 30-50 yds. If they are not "sharp enough", the blood trails are noticeably less IMO
Sharpster,you've got it.Just let me know what I can do.

Go to the KME home page, click on "BHD sharpeners" then you'll see the link to the "trophy room" at the top of BHD sharpener page. If you click on the pictures you'll get a larger version and quite a few of them have stories to go with them. Oh, and I think you'll see some familiar faces/names there too.
JimB, I'll send you a PM.
And Rick, I love that picture and the story that goes with it even more :thumbsup:
Now where is Kingwouldbe??? He's got more Grizzly BHD kills than most of us have total kills...

Here's a hog I took with 160gr grizzly.
Here is one of 2 bucks I killed last season. After the shot he ran about 20 yards stopped and turned around and gave up the ghost. 190 grain grizzly with 125 grain adapter.

I just started shooting the grizzlys this fall, I won't use them for hunting till next year, but after much research I have decided to make them my broadhead of choice, I have the 160 and 200 Elgrandes and have been using the premium steel adaptors with them and they both fly great, I could not be more pleased, can't wait to use them on game, till then I'll just keep practicing with them and use the heads I am comfortable with for this year. DK.
Sorry for the bad pics...7595 GT Trad with 153gr head including aluminum broadhead adapter. Shot right through the scapula and into the spine. Dropped him where he stood.

I've shot my last seven deer with Griz 190's and I love them. BUT... Make sure you learn how to get them sharp or you won't be happy with them.
I have a tendency to try different broadheads every couple of years and have found all the "traditional" broadheads to perform as well as I shot them; provided it is solidly built. For me, where I shoot a critter is a lot more important then the broadhead used. The following critters were all taken with 190 Grizzly's a few years back.

This one was taken from a ranch, it was not a hunt.

what a bear !!!
Here is one of the two bulls I shot with Grizzlies in Australia. Both bulls were killed with one arrow. The Grizzlies will not let you down. They can blast through the heaviest hide and bone and still be shaving sharp as they cut through the heart and lungs.

Great Broadhead
Been using them for a little while now, killed a bunch of animals with them, always liked the ol 190gr but also really like the new 200gr
they get super Sharp and leave a proper blood trail!
