Regardless of what I use I make sure they are scary sharp. Sharpness I think gets forgot in the age of marketing gimmicks. Lots of research on bleeding from sharp blades vs so so dull blades. Lansky works wonders. my 2 cents
I'd say I'm guilty of not checking. But I will be from now on.I couldn't agree more. I've seen new blades right out of the package that wouldn't cut you. I'd be willing to bet that 90% of hunters don't even check blade sharpness on the new blades they purchase. Most assume that the blades are new, they must be sharp...
That is why I use blades that require me to sharpen myself and why I don't have a lot of hair on my left arm throughout bow season...
Ended up swinging by Cabelas this afternoon and picking up some Dirtnap DRT's. Anyone ever used them? If so, what was the verdict on them?I've always shot mx-3's, but can't get them to fly good with the bow I got last year so have been shooting grim reapers since. I would like to try slick tricks but haven't had time to pick any up.
Yeah you are right. I've just never learned how to sharpen a broadhead so I'm leery of doing it wrong. I don't want an injured animal due to a poor sharpening job. A YouTube video or two could probably fix that though.A little sharpener is cheap insurance. I understand the one and done thing, but we still have to make sure that "one" is a good one. Most blister packed BH's are far from sharp out of the package.
