A new breed of broadhead   
New for 2003!

 


What Sets This Crimson TalonTM With "Spin-Tite Airfoil TechnologyTM” Apart From All The Other Broadheads?

Crimson Talon broadheadsWhat sets the Crimson TalonTM apart from all the other previous broadhead designs is the incorporation of the revolutionary new Spin-Tite Airfoil TechnologyTM — a patent-pending variable degree axial flow airfoil to spin-stabilize the broadhead and hunting shaft. Historically, archers have attempted to stabilize their hunting arrow from the rear using helically fletched vanes or feathers. That's the same as trying to steer your car from the trunk. The Crimson TalonTM guides your hunting shaft from the front using spin-stabilization!

What Is A "Variable Degree Axial Flow Airfoil” Anyway?

A variable degree axial flow airfoil is essentially a precisely designed, tuned and applied axial air flow turbine that when applied in a very specific and controlled manner to a flat surface allows a broadhead to spin-stabilize itself. The result is an arrow shaft that tracks and fly's straight and true shot-after-shot. It's the same, as when you spin a top up and place it on the floor — it remains stable until the spin decays. And get this, you don't have to tune you bow, broadhead, sights or arrow rest — because they are now spin-stabilized. Simply screw-on a Crimson TalonTM and hunt!

Do They Really Fly Like A Mechanical?

Mechanicals were invented out of a necessity for precise hunting arrow flight. And mechanicals do just that — they fly straight. Trouble is though — they require so much energy to open when they impact that penetration is ultimately compromised. A Crimson TalonTM fly's with all the precision accuracy of a mechanical due to the Spin-Tite Airfoil Technology which spin-stabilizes the entire hunting arrow from the front, unlike all other broadheads that are steered from the rear by the vanes or feathers. This is why broadheads wind plane. You cannot steer an arrow from the rear — that is the same as steering your car from the trunk!

What Kind Of Penetration Can I Expect?

Crimson TalonsTM are equipped with EZ-Flex Blades. This patent-pending feature will revolutionize the way archers view penetration. The all-new blade design actually allows the blades to flex as they pass through an animal. Now, if a bone is encountered the blade is able to flex and deflect to some degree, allowing it to bypass bone. But the reality of this shooting through bone thing is all advertising hype. Let's face facts — if your broadhead won't fly straight, you had better have something that will shoot through bones, because that is what you are going to be hitting with errant flying broadheads! If your shooting one of those broadheads that claim to be able to shoot through bone, cinder blocks, steel drums, etc. we recommend that you inquire how well they will shoot through tree trunks (trees seem to be a popular target for errant flying broadheads)!

How Do Crimson TalonsTM Effect Arrow Speeds?

With a Crimson TalonTM you can expect to gain as much as 4-8 feet per second downrange. Because of their aerodynamic design, the Crimson TalonsTM trajectory is affected less downrange. With the Spin-Tite Airfoil Technology TM the Crimson TalonTM has greatly reduced aerodynamic drag. Unlike other broadheads, the Crimson TalonTM design minimizes drag and therefore faster arrow speeds are realized. Additionally, with faster arrow speeds you now enjoy a flatter shooting bow at the same draw-weight you are currently shooting. This means that judging distances is no longer as critical as with slow arrows.

Why Do All The Other Broadhead Manufacturers Advertise "Perfect” Arrow Flight When In Reality They Fly So Poorly?

We do not have an answer for that one. Ask them.

What About Helically Arranged Blades?

Some broadhead manufacturers have attempted to incorporate helically arranged blades (blades placed in the ferrule at an angle much like helically fletched vanes and feathers on the rear of the arrow shaft) in their design. Simply stated, these designs do not work. Blades configured in this manner create a tremendous amount of additional aerodynamic drag which significantly slows arrow speed and limits an arrow's effective range. Helically arranged blades also have poor penetration characteristics because of the blade-to-ferrule arrangement. Helically arranged designs are much like trying to push a broom handle through a bed pillow.
