Hey Wood. Kinda funny because I remember you talking about the Hunor a
few years ago. Not sure, but I think it was right when you got them.

Anyway, now that you've been using them for a while, what do you think of
them? I've never actually heard opinions from some one who has tested them
out.

I'd appreciate your review.

They fly as well as anything I've put on the end of my shafts. You need to sharpen them when you get them from the factory, but I have no problem getting them shaving sharp. They spin true, are .064" thick, weigh 122-123 gr. and will split heavy bones. I've killed a doe, went 50 yds., spike elk went 30 yds., stopped and stood for a while, then fell over, 5 point elk, bad hit in shoulder/leg ball joint, (2" thick) split it in half and he bled massivley for 150-200 yds. dead bull, coyote made it maybe 10 yds. So far this year they didn't help me with a cow elk at 63 yds that I used my 40 pin on, or a 5 point bull just before dark when I hit a branch the size of my thumb. LOL

Sounds like they're holding up nice. You have, no doubt, put them to good use.

Thanks Wood!

Agreed! I switched to two blades in the early 80s and never looked back. For me it's primarily an accuracy issue, I just seem to get consistently tighter groups with two blades than I do with multi-blades reqardless of the brand, and in my mind, shot placement trumps everything else in bowhunting. The other big plus to shooting two blade heads is as Wyetterp said- a greatly decreased flight responce from the animal. If they don't run, it makes the recovery alot easier. BTW, the term "two blade slit" gets my blood boiling pretty quick!

I saw some pics of the hunor heads somewhere and they definitely looks impressive.
