Title: Snuffer SS vs. WW Elite
Post by: BRONZ on October 31, 2010, 10:17:00 PM

Have been shooting the Snuffer SS for the last few years.  I like head, but was think'n about trying the WW Elite out.  Anyone have any feedback?

I like the Elite better, long, lean & mean.

Ditto that.  Give me added length if I have the same diameter.  Mucho advantage.  Tried the SS for a season and quickly went back to the WWs--regular and elite.

Shot a good size doe as for the south, quartering away 13 yards 15' up in a tree stand. The 175 grain WW Elite entered aft rib cage slicing through the rib stopping at the fletching and exited the left side fwd of the front shoulder12"
protruding.

I have not ever shot snuffers but I killed a buck on 10-30-10 with a woodsman elite and I got 14inch of penetration on him. That is a 512gr arrow going 170fps and I like the lower profile more 3 to 1 ratio of the woodsman. I did test with 2 and 4 blade heads and they penetrated within 1/4 inch of a 2 blade head. I can say that I will always have them in my quiver.   Widow

I haven't shot the WW, not impressed with the Snuffer SS (or Montec).

Dislike the 60 degree edge.

Like more acute.

(and yes, I killed deer with the other heads- they work, but I think some stuff for me to work better).

Thanks for the input gentlemen.  Anyone else have some experiences they'd like to share?

I've been shooting the montec (similar to Snuffer SS) for several years now and have nothing but good result on deer and hogs.  Two holes on everything with plenty of blood to trail.  Get them razor sharp and no problem on medium sized game (55# draw)from my experience.  I've not had opportunity to shoot elk sized animals but would not hesitate to use for elk.  I know of several that have taken elk with those size heads with great success.

Personally I think the WW is a much better head. Just wish they would make it in SS.
