You know I agree you TechStuf I truly forgot about the mech. broad heads as they are illegal here
the reason I have a fondness for "razor gland" is the same reason I have a fondness for the sling is it's compactness the cestui is nice but won't fit in your coat pocket easily the sling and a small case of razor glands will.
Besides, lol I know this guy who use's arrow release's on slings and star pockets so who is to talk.
Also there is the matter of when your doing something for your self sometimes it is worth the time and effort to develop the skill.
by the way tech stuff I enjoy your retention ring around the strings and use it all the time. even with the razor glands.
heres a small aside i was hurling for distance with my three "practice glands" (now painted bright purple) was averaging about 175 yards

At least until I get accurate enough to recover my ammo. Wouldn't do for some little kid to step on a lost broadhead out in the field. 175 yds.... pretty good. Now you've just got like 250 more to go and you can be up there with Yurek!

Solbo your right about razors and bare feet.
I worry about that sort of thing too. here's what i do on my practice ones take my belt sander and dull the razors
(o. k lol I really did that for my own safety)
lately i have been practicing at an old abandoned airfield
lots of asphalt easy to find stuff.
if you can find one i recommend it highly

Only thing is, it's not abandoned. I doubt they'd believe me when I said that I wasn't a terrorist and is was an accident that I put a hole in their multi million dollar commercial jets.

I took my dremel and altered the mold(6 ounce egg sinker mold) so I could put the arrow inserts in.It took a couple of trie's but the mold is now working well
thenI poured lead into the molds then screwed in the various heads
here is a funny one i wonder what juju ponits would do or for that matter any of the the small game shock heads lol! considering the gland its self is a shock monster. oh I also cut the screws because they were to long and then re cut the threads
