Just put in an order for some Brown Bears...they just look too good! I like the weight too. When the wife says "why are buying more broadheads?" I can tell her it's all because of you guys!   :biglaugh:

wow,
first time i've looked at brown bear (hadn't heard about them till now). Has Dr Ed Ashby recovered? I'd like to see an "Ed test".

On the Abowyer website, the picture of the Brown Bear says the head is 2 3/4" long, but the drawing of all the broadheads shown together, and the drawing has to be enlarged, lists the Brown Bear as 2 5/8" long. Which is the correct length?

I just measured a couple........2 3/4 is pretty close.

Not sure if you are talking about the bonehead or large bone head....but if I had a choice just for deer, I'd choose the large bonehead.

I've killed a ton of whitetails with wide heads, and that would be my choice....the wider of the two....now if you want both...then shoot the longer/wider wapiti.  Whitetails are easy to blow through, so I like to slice and dice as much as I can and don't use narrow heads on them as the wide ones blow through them as well and do more damage.

I shot a nice hog with the Large Bonehead last week and blew through it like it was made of paper.

Huey, luckily I did take some close ups.

The entrance hole was slightly larger/wider than the exit.

Awesome thanks for the pics Terry.

I don't see a 135gr. head on their site. Are you guys talking about the 145"s? Do these heads actually weigh what their advertised weight is?

ryped

I think that the bonehead is now offered in 145.  The 135 is no more if I'm not mistaken.

2 5/8" is 95.5% of 2 3/4" (2 6/8" actually).  If your draw length is consistent to the eighth of an inch, I still would not worry if the broadhead was 2 5/8" vs. 2 6/8".  Next you'll be telling me there is a difference if they have a weight difference of 5 grains...
