Title: 300 Xtreme BH
Post by: Bob Morrison on July 05, 2013, 04:37:00 PM
(http://morrisonarchery.com/NEWS/300XT3x3.jpg) Is there any interest in bringing back the Stainless Steel 3 bladed 300 grain 300 Xtreme? One of the best heavy BH I've ever used, I paid $30 ea. back then. I feel I can bring them back and sell a 3 pk for $59.95 + shipping.What do you think.

I've got some in my archery tackle box and they are certainly some wicked heads.  Seems like going heavy up front is certainly in vogue these days with a lot of other 225 grn and up blades being used.  I'd give them a shot at that price.  
Danny Rowan would jump all over them.

I'd be interested in working up an arrow setup with them.  At that cost, would be cheaper than some already available heads.

I'm not sure if there is another 3 blade Stainless Steel BH available? These are solid one piece heads.

If they are 300 grs as a glue-on,I would be.

Bob,
I have one of these heads but always felt 300 grains was too much for most of my hunting situations.  A lighter head would be on my wish list in this design if feasible.

I would love to see a head like this come out or like the VPA's that has about the same dimensions as the original Woodsmans 1 1/8" cut 2 5/8" long, but machined from a single piece of steel (stainless or not makes me no difference) glue on that weighs 125-150 grains with no vents.

I have one and it's as tough as nails.

I would be in for a couple of packs.
What are the dimensions?

Great head, sign me up for a pack.

Post by: Danny Rowan on July 06, 2013, 11:18:00 AM
I would be all over them Bob. I still have about 2 doz of the originals and love them, easy to sharpen and hold a wicked edge very well. I have put them through hogs, whitetail and fallow deer and just touch them up and they are ready to go again.

I would buy a half dozen....I'd have to go to arrow dynamics golds to get them to fly.....but I have a few...

I still have one of the original proto types.

Post by: Bob Morrison on July 06, 2013, 09:43:00 PM
Terry, I'm shooting yellows, and its a real good setup. I have 6 or 7 original final design. and I have several of the different proto types.. The picture is of the final design, and is what we will get when and if we get the order together. And all it takes is $$$$$$

I shoot them on AD Trads, Hammerheads, Hammerhead lites, golds, greens, and oranges, they all fly true from all of my bows.

I have about a dozen and a half of them. Great broadheads. Way tougher than nails!!!! I was with Bob Morrison when Joe Coots shot one at a target from an angle where he had already shot an arrow that had a 300 grain target point, and the 300Xtreem  almost cut the target point in half. It only took Joe a couple of minutes to resharpen the 300Xtreem back to a razor edge. The 300Xtreem is the equivalent of a VPA Terminator, only in stainless.

I hear ya Danny...not sure if its my bow weights...draw length or what....but 250 is about max...I normally shoot 175 90% OF  the time and 225 the other 10%  I don't like the way the heavier heads fly....but I'd make and exception for these on select hunts cause they will go off Golds for me....and the golds are lighter than the trads so my trajectory wouldn't be effected much either.

What's the word Bob....any sort of minimum you need?

I will get them, but I have to get moved first. If anyone wanting them would e-mail me with how many you want I can start a list once we hit 200 +- heads I'll order them.

When will heads be available ? will you have the matching field points also?
Title: Re: 300 Xtreme BH
Post by: JimB on July 12, 2013, 09:05:00 AM
tiur,Tuffhead has glue-on 300 gr field points.
Title: Re: 300 Xtreme BH
Post by: Bob Morrison on July 12, 2013, 11:56:00 AM
I only have e-mail requests for 21 heads. Not enough for that kind of investment.
Screw on only. They will be sharp....Hunting sharp for most yes, some that will never be satisfied with the factory sharp No.

Fellas,

I received an email from Bob yesterday.  He only has orders/requests for 42 of the Extreme broadheads.  He's in the process of moving and doesn't have the time to drive this issue.  If we want his Extreme broadheads, we'll have to drive the issue and find another 158 orders for him.

Doesn't seem like enough interest to pursue this any further. Sorry I was hoping to get them back out here, I still feel they are a great BH, and was wanting them as much for myself as everyone else. I have enough to last me a few more years.
I want to thank everyone that tried to make this happen.

Hi ,
Does anybody have pics of this head in action - good bloodtrails?

I have shot hogs,bears and deer with this head, this is the finest 3 blade ever made. Quality is second to none.

Is there a way to restart a group buy-in for this broadhead? And what would it take for the tooling plant to offer different weights (like 200, 250 grains)?
Title: Re: 300 Xtreme BH
Post by: Al Kidner on February 09, 2015, 05:21:00 AM
I had six of these heads... but some low life stole them all before I could try them. Outstanding head and Id planned to use them on our water buff...

Post by: el chupa nibre on February 09, 2015, 06:49:00 PM
I'm most curious to see if we could get these produced in lower grain weights like 200, 250. I think there is a bigger market for them as opposed to the 300.

I tried to do this just a couple years ago. Min run was like 500-600 and at $30 a head less than 200 were wanted.

May be able to get some feasible deal going... Will update in another thread if there is any progress on this (will post a link to it here).
Title: Re: 300 Xtreme BH
Post by: el chupa nibre on February 10, 2015, 09:56:00 PM
Yep, they are still being produced on a per-order basis. Received some photos from the manufacturer! Just working on a realistic buy-in minimum...
