Let’s us know how sharp they are out of box.

Mine out of the box would compare with my Iron Wills, scary sharp and look like the edge will be easy to keep.

Where are these produced ?

Not sure but from what I know about Snyder and Broderick they’re probably American made

Mine came in today. Shaving sharp out of package. Got to shoot them after yard work.
Daysix 1 1/4 and Iron Will. Both 125 grs.

everything fly as expected?

Mine showed up today. Everything looks they way they should for the price. Shaving sharp as mentioned. I’ll give a better review tomorrow when I have time to weigh, spin and shoot them.

Yes. Cant post the video, so here are the screen shots. First two groups at 50. IW, D6, field point, and Dead Meat. Second group opened up, no excuses. Wind was intermittent from 10-15mph.

Got in a little testing today. Did the usual and spun them all and weighed them. All were perfect. I went out and went straight to 40 yards. The 1 1/16 and 1 1/4 both hit perfectly with field points. Jumped back to 60. 1 1/16 was money and the 1 1/4 was a few inches low. I bounced around 20-60 and shot each head 10 times. Obviously this was a quick test and I only went to 60 yards. But so far impressive. I’ll stretch it back to 100 when I have some more time and see how they do. Two things that really stuck out were how quiet they were in flight (I dunno why that stuck out so much but it did) and the fact that after 10 shots I was able to shave hair off my leg with them. I’d say these heads will be a winner

What did your total arrow weight come to? I'm looking at switching to the day six arrows and heads.

I'm at 510ish with 350 spine HDs cut at 30" nock valley to carbon, 50gr centric system, 125gr point weight, 3 of the vanes Day Six uses, no wrap.

My arrow weight is 519. I am shooting an axis. I bought a test pack of the day six 300s and they weighed out at 525. I was really considering switching but decided against it. The shafts and their components are top notch. Spun great and shot great. But I really really dislike the nocks for skinny shafts. Very weak and brittle in my experience at least the ones I’ve used. I had one shatter when I shot it the other day. Which if you’ve ever had that happen it’s like dry firing your bow. Maybe I should have caught it before but it fit on the string like normal and there wasn’t anything indicating an issue.

FYI they are aware of the issue and just switched nocks to address it. Don't have more detail than that but they're quick with emails if you're curious.

Do you know what they switched to? Bc I used the ones that came with the shaft and some aftermarket ones (Bohning if memory is right) that I had from when I shot skinnies before. They all broke within a couple weeks. Generally you can’t tell it’s about to happen bc it won’t click on your string and will be very loose. They just don’t hold up at all compared to an x nock.

I'm not sure, sorry.

Since they re a micro, you could try an Easton deep six nocks (G nock I believe). I use them in GT pierce and they fit perfect.

More testing today. Really really impressed the more I shoot them. This is at 80 with a 1 1/16, 1 1/4, and a fp. From top a fp, then 1/16, then 1/4. I’m calling that a damn good group. I just redid my center serve and am a little low anyways.

That’ll work, looks like a great flying head and a great tune as well!

Mine are here today but I'm not shooting well/far enough to give good feedback on how they fly. Will look at sharpness and spin them when I get a chance.
