Big Hole + Big Shock = Dead Bird

I shoot most of my deer close to your house.  You can use any broadhead you choose.  That being said,  they are are great for elk.

they are good for, big holes and big blood trails.

could never get them sharp enough or fly straight enough for my liking?

Big snuffers leave big holes when on a heavy arrow and a moderately heavy bow.  I wouldn't shoot them with a bow under 50# or on an arrow less than 500 grains.  That's just me.

AMEN, W.C.  How have you been?  64# MOAB pushes them OK.  67# Bigriver Recurve pushes them better.

whatever they hit  :D

You make the call...

I like them.

IMHO...The easiest broadhead for me to sharpen.

Yes easy to sharpen,and big blood trails.I have been using them for 20 years now IMO the best broadhead made.Everyone has made a copy.

I've had them work just fine out of a 45# bow. Yes, you do want a moderately heavy hunting arrow, but a properly matched arrow that flies well out of your bow will do the job with a big Snuffer. I have yet to see a blood trail that compares to a 160gr. Snuffer, even if you don't get a pass through. That's experience, not speculation.
Big hole = massive blood loss.  

Been talking to Guru bout them, thinking bout getting some to try out. For those that use them, how are you shapening...flat file method?

For those that have used both, how would you compare big snuffers to WW's for straightness? I've had the devil of a time getting some of the recent WW's to spin true and have to remove 5-10gr to get the blades flat.

I sharpen mine the same way Charlie Lamb does it in his video.

Snuffer taimer. The leather makes them razor sharp.

JC,

Ryan did a tutorial a while back using a bench grinder.  That way works fantastic.  I got lessons from Roger last spring with that method. It will work with a Wensel Woodsman too.

There are some BIG critters in Roger's barn taken out with big ol' Snuffers.  Elk, moose, buffalo, ect.  You can kill anything you want with them up to the really big stuff in Africa or Austrailia.

340# Boar shot with wood arrow at 15yards through both shields with a 160 grain snuffer file sharpened on a modified Snuffer Tamer and leather stropped. I preheat the heats on torch to soften so they don't skip down the files and they are alot easier to sharpen IMO.

I have personally never shot anything with them but I do know that Dick Robertson used them on his Moose and Grizzly and I have seen in person 2 Antelope that Ryan Rothaar shot with them along with the pictures of his Moose and also Muskox, I can't understand why anyone would use a WW when there are Snuffers.  I will be using some this fall for sure along with my usual Sasquatch broadheads.  Joseph

Joey, who's that young guy with the black hair and swamprooter recurve?  

I like them alot....but I may be kind of partial, dunno  

For sharpening see the thread Mr. Osminski brought ttt.  (He's MR Osminski now, since he's gonna take me huntin'!, even tho he got outsmarted by a sheep.


Here's a couple Snuffer pics:

Shot through this guy-low chest passthrough- in BC a couple years ago (65@29 inch AS thunderhawk, 680 gr carbons:



Killed this fella last August with the same setup:



Got penetration to the offside ribs, twice.  Muskox was the hardest to penetrate animal I've shot in North America.
