Q:
Will the Woodsman® ELITE Series 3-Blade Screw-In Broadhead fit the Easton Axis/Full Metal Jacket series of carbon shafts (9/32'' diameter)?
This may or may not be a separate question: Will the above mentioned arrow head screw into the "Deep Six" steel insert?
If not, is there an adapter that can be used for the 9/32'' Easton carbon shafts?

A:
You can use the Woodsman Elite with any shaft that has a standard threaded insert regardless of outside diameter. You will not be able to use the Elite with the Deep Six components. An adapter does not currently exist to allow you to go between the two.

A:
I don't have the Easton Axis/Full Metal Jacket arrows. However, I do have Easton 9/32 arrows and my Woodsman Elite Broadheadsscrew in just fine with my 9/32 and my 5/16's. So do the Zwickey Eskilite 2-Blade Screw-In Broadheads and any other 5/16 broadhead.When it comes to field points, then the diameter of the shaft versus arrow makes a difference.

Q:
Hi,
I shoot a Hoyt Buffalo, 54 lbs. at my 30" draw length. I purchased a dozen Easton Legacy arrows size 2219 at 32". I want to make sure I'm reading the Easton arrow selection chart correctly. Would my best broadhead match be a 100 grain or 125 grain Woodsman Elite?

The best way to find the correct weight is to use a field point test kit. That will allow you to see how the different weights affect your arrows.
Answered on 11/1/2012 by Justin from 3Rivers Archery
A:
I think you are going to need around 150 to 200grs. The thing to do though is to get
the fieldoint test kit and bare shaft tune these arrows to see what the bow likes. The kit
comes with 100 grain, 125 grain, 145 grain, 175 grain, 200 grain, and 250 grain
points. Once you achieve good arrow flight with a bare shaft then you will know
what weight broadhead you need.

The 2219s seem a bit heavy for a 54 lb. recurve, but if they shoot well.........more power to you. I'd certainly go with 125 grain Woodsman with such a heavy arrow.

A:
According to Easton Archery website, the 2219 series is 13.8 GPI. At 32 inches this will be 441.6 GPI (grains per inch). FOC (front of center) is also important. There are many different interpretations of this so I willstick to something simple. For this calculation (2219 arrow) I will use an FOC of 15 percent. If we divide 441.6 by 2 (arrow center) we get 220.8 GPI. An FOC of 15 percent gives us 187.68 GPI.The point insert weighs 26 GPI. This gives us 161.68 GPI for the field point or broadhead. This of coursedoes not take into consideration the weight of the fletching. With this arrow I would use a 150 grain field point or broadhead. This will put the FOC between 10 - 15 percentsince alot of people out there say 12 percent is ideal. However, that depends on the individual setup of the bow. Hope this was helpful.

Q:
I dont want to sound stupid, but will a woodsman elite be strong enough to take down a cape buff, or a hippo? Or will the tip flatten during the hit?

A:
Yes it is most definately strong enough to take down either of those animals mentioned. A friend of mine named Andy Ivy is a guide in Australia for water buffalo and the heavy weight versions are some of his favorite heads. You cannot find a more structurally strong broadhead than these.

I watched the video on how these stick in concrete. They didn't seem too penetrate very deep.However, they did stick in the video. So I decided to try my own experiment. I placed a target, made of 1/2 plywood, at a distance of 20 yards. Using a 50 lb Sage No-ToolsTakedown Recurve, my draw length 31 inches, I shot the target with a Woodsman Elite 100gr. The broadhead penetrated the plywood. The back of the broadhead was flush with the front ofthe target. It was extremely difficult getting it out but there was no damage to the broadheadand the tip was still very sharp and kept its point. As to cape buff or hippo, the Woodsman Elite will penetrate deep. However, taking the animaldown always depends on where the animal is shot no matter what its size. I hope this was helpful.From: email@powerreviewsemail..com

The Elite would be able to take it but on dangerous game that requires a 70# minimum draw bow, you would want to shoot a 2 blade because of how thick their ribs are.

Hello, I've recently taken a deer with the woodsmen elite. The broadhead cut between two ribs. I could here it hit the ribs. The broadhead performed wonderfully. However with the thick hide and fat of a cape or a hippo its more about penetration and mass rather than the design of the broadhead. To answer your question is no I don't think the tip will fold or bend. I don't know if they make a woodsmen in a 200 to 250 grain or not but the 125 performed well for me. Again I would be more concerned with shooting an 80 lb bow or more match with a 1,000 grain of arrow shaft. Hope this helps.

I've not shot a Cape buffalo nor hippo, however, I just returned from South Africa 2 weeks ago where I had 1 shot kills with the Woodsman Elite on Impala, Warthog, Kudu, Gemsbuck and Wildebeest. I used Beeman 400 MFX arrows and a 65 pound recurve. I was able to use one Elite for 3 animals ( sharpened between kills) I'd trust it.

Hello
this is regarding your question. I do not think that the arrowhead will
flatten upon impact, seeing as it's designed to penetrate and cut into the
animals' hide as far as it can go. How effective the arrows are also
depends on shot placement, not just penetration. I do think these
arrowheads will do their part on the hide. :)

Q:
I noticed that others have said these broadheads measure at 2 7/8 or 3 inches, but on the 2012 spring edition catalog it says the "length for 100 and 125 grain screw in is 1 7/8." can you please clarify this for me? also was wondering why the new blood groove series broadheads are not available online. Or if they will be soon.

Our measurements are of just the blades itself. It sounds as the other measurements are including the thread that is screwed into the insert. The Blood Groove will be available hopefully before August.

Woodsman Elite Broadheads are machined from a solid piece of Tool Grade steel.
Answered on 2/29/2012 by Mark The College Student from York, PA
A:
The ferrule is made of the same high carbon steel as the rest of the broadhead. The Elites are made out of one solid piece of steel, from the tip to the last thread.

Q:
Do the 3 blades need to be lined up with the 3 feathers when mounting the broadhead to the arrow? or is it OK just to screw it on and shoot it with the blades in any orientation?

It is ok to screw it on and shoot it with the blades at any orientation. The arrow will be spinning in flight. It will not matter how the blades are orientated.

I have heard no, but I fell they need to be. If you think about it....wings on a missile that's mounted under a fighter jet are lined up?
Answered on 1/20/2012 by fastflight71 from Laredo, Texas
A:
It does not matter how the blades are aligned on the arrow. Some people prefer them to be in line with the feathers, but it will have no effect on arrow flight.
Answered on 1/24/2012 by James Kerr from Swartz, La.
A:
It is not necessary to line the blades up with the feathers. However, I do feel that mounting in a consistant fashion (always have one blade up, or two blades level) presents a repeatable site picture and improves accuracy.

I have always been told to line up the head but wuth the Woodsman ELITE screw it on and its ready to shoot.

A:
Grain weight depends on where you have tuned your arrows too, but a majority of compound shooters use 100 grains, while longbow/recurve shooters use 125 grains.
Answered on 12/30/2010 by Johnathan Karch from 3Rivers Archery
A:
If you use a 300 spine arrow the 150-175 should work good.
340 - 125-150grain
400- 100grain

Other than long distance shooting. I do not believe you will see much of a difference between 100 grain and 125 grains. As for velocity I really could not say. I couldn't see it being that big of an impact.
