Brian, I like your interviewing style. You know how to stay out of the way of your guest and draw out the best from them. Keep up the good work! By the way..great guest. I am not a bow hunter but learned a lot.
Wow, this was a very good interview. I'm really interested in the Iron Will 125 broadheads now after hearing the design process and rationale. I am trying to decide whether the solid version is as good if not better than the vented version. Kudos again for a very informative and entertaining video!!!
The thing I like most about these are the 100g option. I shoot Maasai 200's right now and for my compound I wish I had a 100g option. I will be ordering some to give it a try. Price difference between these and the ones I am shooting is minimal. Good broadheads are costly. If the work as advertised it will be worth the cost
I can't comment on how they perform on game. I agree that the vented arrow is louder than I would like. I've shot the solid and vented 100gr back to back at 50 + yards about 10 times. I had to refletch 4 arrows last night because the second arrow cut my first arrow's fletch. I had never shot past 50 yards until about 3 months ago. With an N value that low it may be just luck but these things group really well.
@Santana Lorenzo, they are very well built, tough and extremely sharp. They just came out with a single bevel version and I'm waiting to get my hands on that to give it a try.
After viewing many videos of broadhead tests and having poor results with mechanical broadheads, I settled on Iron Will broadheads. I wanted to buy some before bow season but on their website it keeps indicating they are sold out. Where can I get some?
Does the 280 fps still apply for this head. I'm at 464 g with a 125 four blade. I believe I'll wait on the comparison test between the two heads. Please post the results of the test. Ive made a call to the organ donor hospital for prices on body parts to buy heads. I'll post prices 🤪🤪
Shot to 100 yards with both the solid and vented and both shots back to back were in the kill zone of my delta whitetail target. I also get both into 16x16 rhinoblock. That’s about as good as I can shoot at this point
They are not to expensive. Your trying to take an animals life. You owe it to the animal to shoot the best quality broadheads. Especially if your buying some of these $1200+ bare bows. I'll be buying Ironwill heads as soon as I finish tuning my high FOC arrows and figure out what weight head flies best.
Thanks for the info but your ads are beating your video to death. Feel like I am watching the Outdoor Channel that I stopped watching ten years ago as it became one big infomercial. Broadhead looks awesome.
G’day Brian I love the show even though I get it hours later here in Australia! Mate Iv been a bow hunting for more than 40 years and the change in technology in broad heads has only been the types of steel! In the 90s a company here in Australia called outback broad heads had a 125g broad heads identical to the one you just had on your show ! I used it exclusively on deer huge hogs and buffalo in north Australia! And yes what what was said about them having to be sharp dead right! The ways we use to find out how sharp we had our cutting-edge was to stretch several elastic bands over a piece of pipe and if the edge cut through without much forcing well they were able to cut tissue! I’m a blacksmith by trade ! And I’ll agree with what was said about hardness and edge retention is critical , I use to temper all new broad heads to around 59/60 rc for best results for edge sharpness ! Mate I still use the heads I bought 10 years ago like they say if it’s not broken don’t fix it ! Mate I never miss a show keep up the great work kind regards ! Mick
I used them this year- Amazing flight and Insane penetration. Shot an Elk frontal and I got 12" of mt arrow sticking out the rear end of the Elk... Check out ironwill instagram and the pic is on there. I'll be buying some of the 125 gr solids this year
What did you pay for your bow set up? They replace the blades no question asked and you can typically shoot multiple animals without damage. I for one will gladly spend the money to get better penetration and better quality but that's just me.
I used to say the same thing but basically viewed broadheads as disposable. Ive never had a slick trick not get a tip bent after pass through. These aren't disposable so if you kill 3 animals per head they exceed the same value...except they are guaranteed so.if you dont lose them they should exceed. Plus they really are better when you need the hardness (humerous bone or scapula).
39:00 "A deer moves at 1300 feet per second." That's like 800 miles an hour. I'm sorry which part of the deer is this? .. and you're talking to an engineer. He was very gracious bringing it back to gravity.
You have to figure in edge retention. Gotta practice with a sharp broadhead if you want to really practice since a dull broadhead will fly different because of resistance and balance. I use G5 montecs. $35 for 3. I have to buy at least 2 boradheads per arrow to account for practice and hunting. If these arrows can last all practice season, then touch up the blade (if needed) and use it for hunting, then you aren't spending too much more for them. Also have to think about the hunt. My dad drew a prime Nevada elk tag and shot a big bull on day 5 but hit the shoulder blade. Didn't get enough penetration because of the mechanical broadhead. The bull ended up getting killed by a rifle hunter a month later. Scored around 375". $75 more dollars seems like a small price if it meant he would have killed that bull.
$100 dollars for 3 broadheads? Then you sell main replacement blades separately from the smaller blades, $45 for main blades, $25 for the smaller blades. That's $70 just to replace blades for 3 broadheads... What a scam.
You pay for what you get is still true!
Brian, I like your interviewing style. You know how to stay out of the way of your guest and draw out the best from them. Keep up the good work! By the way..great guest. I am not a bow hunter but learned a lot.
Brian must be starting to listen to folks who watch his podcasts... he is normally talking over the guest.

Donovan Stockton I’m thinking of, well pretty sure I am going to get the wide series 200 grain head

I’m very interested in the engineering behind these, but you lost me when you started checking your phone while Bill was talking.
He was looking up something that went with the podcast.
Yeah he’s a dick for sure. Not sure why people like this guy?
@Santana Lorenzo, they are very well built, tough and extremely sharp. They just came out with a single bevel version and I'm waiting to get my hands on that to give it a try.
Been looking at these broadheads for awhile now. I've decided I just need to bite the bullet and order them. Thanks for the podcast.
I did too. Just bought them.
Thanks for sharing this; this was one i've been looking for..
Another good cast. I would like to see Dr Ashby come on sometime .
Great Guest! Great Story!
R60c is dammhardnium . you better have sharpening instructions in the package because sharpening steel that hard is more difficult.
Compound archers figuring out that two blades work better than three...
Why didnt you tell us about the Ashby Reports sooner!!! Haha
never underestimate the power of high hardness for sure
After viewing many videos of broadhead tests and having poor results with mechanical broadheads, I settled on Iron Will broadheads. I wanted to buy some before bow season but on their website it keeps indicating they are sold out. Where can I get some?
I'm not sure. Maybe check some of your local bow shops and see if they have any in stock.
Does the 280 fps still apply for this head. I'm at 464 g with a 125 four blade. I believe I'll wait on the comparison test between the two heads. Please post the results of the test. Ive made a call to the organ donor hospital for prices on body parts to buy heads. I'll post prices 🤪🤪
This sold me on these... Awesome to hear someone put out specs and explain WHY it's a better product from an engineering prospective.
BlueLine Bowhunters have you purchased and shot them. If so do they fly anything like field points
Thanks
Shot to 100 yards with both the solid and vented and both shots back to back were in the kill zone of my delta whitetail target. I also get both into 16x16 rhinoblock. That’s about as good as I can shoot at this point
Sure, $33 per BH is expensive and won't suit everyone's pocket...but if it's the hunt of a lifetime, better not to 'buy cheap, buy twice'
$120 for 3? 🤣🤣🤣🤣 I'll work more on myshot placement instead of this ridiculous cost.
Link did not work . Got any dealers I could order ?? Ty Mark
Why I've not tryed them is the price
field point in the orchard.
I just bought 6 iron will heads in a case ....not impressed with the sharpness. I'm sure I can get it sharp

Do they fly like field points at all
A lot of companies advertise like they do imo but don’t
Thanks
They do
Yes they do

Michael Horsley ~ AWESOME! Thanks Mick!
I can’t stand your mics. You hear all the smacking. Might be a small thing, but damn it’s annoying. Get some lauv mics.

Bill mentioned this one right at the end of this video.
Just ordered mine for my Bull Elk hunt, can't wait..!
Got an update on your elk hunt? Hope you were able to harvest a nice bull!
They are just to damn expensive. Plenty of broadheads that do just as good of a job for a whole lot less

Send me a link , I’ll try them . Ty Mark

Good info .. Does anybody know if these heads are Ranch ferry approved..??? Thanku
The RF is a sharp biz man and only approves products for which he’s compensated. Good work if you can get it.
Get rid of the fancy box that might lower the cost 20 bucks no need for it
Man, Brian couldn’t have been more bland and disinterested. Does he just have a horrible personality or just didn’t like them?
Get a different mic I couldn’t listen to this
I think it's funny that even he laughed at his own prices.
$100 dollars for 3 broadheads? Then you sell main replacement blades separately from the smaller blades, $45 for main blades, $25 for the smaller blades. That's $70 just to replace blades for 3 broadheads... What a scam.
That’s the same as the drt!
sadlerbm wrong
John Doe ok looks the same you fuck
sadlerbm looks nothing like the drt a2 tool steel compared to aluminum ya jackass
