I always keep some broadheads ready to go for that impromtu hog hunt, but recently found myself with only a couple ready to hunt!  :eek:   With deer season opening this weekend, and me off for bears the next, I figured I better get my heads ready!  Here are some 1 1/8" and 1 1/4" VPAs, and three 1 1/2" Big Jims.  All had to be sharpened, but three already had the bevels right (no filing).  In an hour, I had all nine shaving sharp.









I start with a 16" mill bastXXX file and then a three sided stone system available at Lowes.  Sometimes I finish with a ceramic stick.  I use side walk chalk for the file, because it's all I could find.  Works like a charm!

Looks like some good hog and deer medicine to me!  Good luck this weekend! How do you sharpen the back edges Marty?

I've never sharpened the back edges.

Marty, it looks like your ready for any unlucky critter that steps into your zone!            I've been sharpening a head or 2 every night before bed the last few nights so when I finally get a break from school and homework I'll be ready to hunt.

Good idea on the sidewalk chalk!  I will have to try that.

I would say your ready!  

My bad Marty...i thought the rear edges looked sharpened in the picture.  

Looking good Marty. Good luck out there, stay safe and shoot straight.  

I've also got a box full of original WWs and snuffers for back up.  

Yeppers! You're ready!!

God bless,Mudd

Looking good
