This is just for fun. But of all the broad heads that are no longer being produced, which one would you ike to see Resurrected and why? Oh, and for those who might not know what you're talking about a picture would be great too.  

The old green Bear broadheads.  They are very easy to sharpen, cheap and you have the option to use bleeder blades.

Ben Pearson Deadheads

None really....don't wanna be a thread killer but the new heads are so much better. Better materials, better angles, better value.
I knowmost of us are nostalgic for the olden days but I like some of the newer stuff too.

I couldn't pick just one -- I agree with both Trooper and Flinger1, those old carbon steel Bear broadheads were rugged and easy to sharpen and there was nothing else quite like Deadheads! They worked way better than they looked like they should. Flew pretty good, penetrated ok and left one heck of a wound channel!

The wolverine by the makers of the grizzly

Hunter's Head and the Mohawk Magnum I.

Biggie - I value your opinion and I'm glad you posted, but go back and read the first sentence. Although I agree with you, it isn't about what's better. I'm just bored at work and thought I'd throw that out to see what people liked.

There is a rather expensive head out right now that is very similar in looks to the Deadhead. Greenies (razorheads) can still be found regularly and the razorhead name itsself never left. About a month ago I bought 2 dz greenie's for 100.00, I wish that were possible with Deadheads!!!!!!

Brent, that's why I kinda apologized right off the bat...

:-)  How do you get bored at work anyway???

I need that job.

Bored At Work? Whatever.... I'd like to bring back those Rambo Heads! You know the "Shoot-And-Serve" ones.  :D

... mike ...

Copperhead Slicer!

Razorbak 4's and 5's I used them until I could find no more. still the best and sharpest head I have ever used.

As long as we're wishing...I would like to see the large Goshawk made available again.

However, when "if's and but's become candy and nuts, we'll all have a Merry Christmas.

How about the Hoyt Chuck-It?

Bear Razorhead.  I liked the easy replacement of the bleeders.  Yes there are a lot of good new designs around now but that doesn't make the old ones bad just because they have have been around 50 years or so.  Just look at the continued success of Zwickey.  

I just knew someone would mention Deadheads.  I used those way back when too.  A certain very expensive and somewhat improved German copy sells like hotcakes.

I'm another one for the Bear "greenie" Razorhead.  Nothing brings back bowhunting memories of my younger days like "snapping" in the bleeder-blade of a Bear Razorhead!

Well guys, this is a sort of thread I SHOULD like. It's my pleasure, to present for your admiration, at least, what the present state of the "wishlist" contains     :D    
   
Razorhead 1956 and 1978, Deadhead small and big, Wolverine straight and convex, Hunters Head and Slicer, Magnum I, orig. 1975 Razorbak-5, with hood on - and gayly painted - it would fake the Rambo explosive head, the mighty Goshwak, Chuck-It heavy and light. Enjoy!


I am hard pressed - to pick only one. I like the Goshawk pretty much, or the Butterfield Brute, or the Ivanhoe - but here I present you a forged Pearson I would like to have in numbers, so that I would be able to try them out in actual shooting
   

For the sake of nostalgia I like the old Bear broadheads.  But for my current use I'll stick with  Razorcaps and Zwickey's.

Falk -  You the man!
