Title: New Broadhead
Post by: Bob Morrison on September 03, 2015, 08:11:00 PM
(http://www.morrisonarchery.com/300-Proto..jpg)  
   
This is a Proto one piece broadhead coming out soon.

300 gr, 250 gr, 200 gr, 175 gr.

This broadhead pictured was test shot into a cement block 2 times straight on and one on an angle glancing off,  All 3 arrows broke.An old stop sign 6 times, Broadhead still spins perfect, Edges touched up on my Work Sharp, This Broadhead will still hunt as good as a new one. A true 50-55 Rockwell hardness.

Looks like a good head. Wonder the cost. Any idea?

You sure have a knack for broadhead design Bob. What's the cutting diameter.
Title: Re: New Broadhead
Post by: Bob Morrison on September 03, 2015, 09:04:00 PM
Cost is going to be $49.50/3.
cutting Dia. is 1.20" And this can vary, if you want 1.5" we can do it but material costs go up.
I'm a big fan of 300 grain at 1.125" so this is what I'm into. I shoot 44-50# at 26" on a good day, I've just had too many good things at that setup. I have to say this is all done in house, Nothing is sent out to be heat treated or coated or anything. So knowing not everybody what 300 gr. this design will go to 175gr.

Thanks for the interest.
Bob

Is it a screw on or glue on?

Screw in, only.

Very nice indeed, I like the fact it is being done "in house". Gives me the impression of "handmade".

is it better then VPA or Grizzly
Title: Re: New Broadhead
Post by: DesertDude on September 04, 2015, 12:45:00 AM
Other than the Rockwell hardness and price,  how does your broadhead differ from the VPA?   Type of steel? Coating?  Length?  

Thank you

Mark

Very nice Bob. I will order me some 175's once they are ready

Its a 3 blade Broadhead.... Cutting length of blade is 2.7" tool steel. Sorry but I don't get into this vs that vs that.A High quality broadhead, that can also be made from Stainless steel if you want it. Some real good quality 3 blade heads out there, now you have one more to choose from.

Going to have to try these when you get the 175 gr. out.
Title: Re: New Broadhead
Post by: screamin on September 04, 2015, 11:36:00 PM
It looks like the ferrule of the head is larger than the shaft, is that a 5/16" shaft? If so, we have a winner here, no shaft hang up on the way through.
Title: Re: New Broadhead
Post by: JamesKerr on September 04, 2015, 11:54:00 PM
Looks like a good head! The 250 grain would work great for me.
Title: Re: New Broadhead
Post by: Bob Morrison on September 05, 2015, 03:28:00 PM
First production run of 300 gr. and 250 gr.
We will probably have to name them before long.

Bob....can u get 1.5s in 175 grain?
Title: Re: New Broadhead
Post by: Bob Morrison on September 05, 2015, 03:44:00 PM
It will have be a shorter version. We may do 100,125,150 Grain. But an 1.5" at 175 gr. I don't think the blades would hold up, you got to lose the weight somewhere.

Bob These look almost the same as the Optek 300 Xtreem. Did you buy them out?
Title: Re: New Broadhead
Post by: happy1 on September 06, 2015, 03:31:00 PM
Bob, Are they going to be hunting sharp or do they need sharpened?

Good looking broadhead Bob !!!    :thumbsup:

Post by: Bob Morrison on September 06, 2015, 06:22:00 PM
The only thing close to the 300 Xtreme is the 3 blades. I still have about 20 300 extremes. Most won't spend the $30 a head to shoot them.

They are my hunting sharp, but who knows by the time you receive them, a touch up by pulling over 120 sand paper seem to bring them to where I can shave hair on my arm and they will hold the edge.

This is not my broadhead, I did help in the design, and testing that I'm very happy with. They are made 8 miles from my house, so I can make sure they stay right.

Lethal design and specs.
Title: Re: New Broadhead
Post by: Bob Morrison on September 08, 2015, 04:27:00 PM
We are offering a lifetime warrantee for these broadheads, warranty is unconditional and covers against bending and breakage that occurs under normal hunting conditions.  Your own testing, shooting into concrete,steel,stone is Not covered.
We already did all of that it was a blast, and not all survived, This design did. But I'm sure with enough arrows I or you could break anything broadhead built. Toughest to date that I've tried to break.

Any chance of a glue on?

Those look very nice Bob!

Might have to give them a try next season.

Title: Re: New Broadhead
Post by: Bob Morrison on September 11, 2015, 01:16:00 PM
A glue on will not work with the design we have. The 175 and 200 gr. are in the works, could be a month yet.
Mike what grains do you shoot?
Title: Re: New Broadhead
Post by: wingnut on September 11, 2015, 03:11:00 PM
Bob,

On my moose rig I shoot 200 up front including insert so the 175 will be perfect.  I won't need them until spring as my elk rig is already set for this year.

I have 9ea. 300 gr. in stock now. More of everything coming next week. Nothing like waiting until hunting seasons are just coming in to introduce a new Broadhead   :bigsmyl:
Title: Re: New Broadhead
Post by: AZ_Longbow on September 12, 2015, 12:17:00 PM

Are these 3 blade or two blade ? Sorry... just come off night shift and I'm not sure...lol.

After bending a VPA on the shoulder of a Warthog in Africa last month... I'm looking to change heads.


cheers,

"Most won't spend the $30 a head to shoot them"

Would like to try the 200 grains, and no offense, but $16.50 a head is out of my price range too...
Title: Re: New Broadhead
Post by: Bob Morrison on September 13, 2015, 06:23:00 PM
Al, I really don't think you will bend or break these on any animal.
Z, sorry about the price. But the steel isn't free yet. And I can't get the guy and his CNC to work for free either, I get to work on them also, I do get my heads free (6 will last me at least 2 years or more)knowing this BH and having shot and hunted with most all 3 blades built, $16.50 is more than a fair price for this Broadhead.
Title: Re: New Broadhead
Post by: AZ_Longbow on September 13, 2015, 10:06:00 PM
And the warranty.

that is a small price to pay for a head that is backed with a warranty like that.  There is only one other head I know of with a warranty like that, the cutthroat.  I think its around the same price.
Title: Re: New Broadhead
Post by: AZ_Longbow on September 14, 2015, 10:08:00 AM
Yep, I agree the heads and a warranty. The price is pretty good. I already made my first order and I am sure I will order more... I tend to loose my arrows in the thick brush.
