So why this design? Why a cut on contact?

What I actually saw in penetration testing was

an end flight testing is that not only with but length

hurt you in penetration, I believe. I think it said added surface areas you're trying to push it through

any tissue or anything that added surface areas

not really helping you out. So you've created a non-vented version

and it flies, it performs similar to this?

You know so far so good. Aaron Snyder, I gave him some, he shot it at 60 and then a hundred yards

and said, you know these are great, he really liked it.

Most people would think and I would have also 10 years ago

that you can't have that high hardness, it'll be brittle.

You can't achieve the impact strength you need

with that and that's what really I learned through going

through five different steels, sharpness matters and

okay maybe you're hitting a shoulder blade but you also have to slice through all this tissue through the animal.

And that's where a sharper broadhead is going to shine and out penetrate

on this nut sharp. All right folks welcome to the Gritty Bowman podcast. I'm sitting here

in Evergreen Colorado with Bill Van der Heiden.

Is that how you say it? Yes Van der Heiden.

Or Van der Heiden and he is the owner of Iron Will

broadheads. Right. Right. And you actually live in Colorado.

I do. I live near a loved one in Colorado so
