Red River Brodheads is pleased to announce we are now a sponser of the Tradgang and that we now have the R-1 in 125 grain.
The R-1 is a redesigned BEAR Razer Head, which I consider to have been the deadliest broadhead ever built. However we did make some improvements in the design.
Please check out our web site at www.redriverbroadheads.com (http://www.redriverbroadheads.com)
Welcome to TG! Good looking heads. I'd love to see heavier ones in the near future. Let's have a Texas group hunt. :shaka: :shaka:
Agreed on the heavier head idea. Maybe an all steel non vented version in the 200+ grain range.
I shoot 150-200 so can't try them but like the looks of it.

I usually shoot 300 grain but would try 200 grains with 100 grain inserts if they ever would come available
I used them a few years ago when they just had the 100 grain. Killed a few animals with them and found them to be excellent. Very very sharp out of the box as well! I have a question though, are the bleeders thicker on the 125 Gr? I'm hoping so! I didn't like the bendable/breakable bleeder concept.
I still have a few and have put them through quite a bit of abuse, I've been using them for hog arrows without the bleeders.
Please make a 200-225 grain head.
200 grains would put you in a very good position in the trad market! We can normally work with inserts etc. to get a good desired weight from there.
We will be brining higher weight broadheads in to the future with the same design.
Please check out this video that explains the design.

Very nice!
Did we mention 100% you break it we replace it, even if you shoot it in a rock you breaker it we will replace it!
Just an FYI we guarantee our broadheads not because we think they will fail. We just take the customer service approach that a happy bow hunter is a good customer and if you hit a rock you are not happy. So if you send it to us and we replace it and we both will be happy!
Our R-1 was designed with the same bleeder blade Fred Bear designed back in the 50's. It is designed to break away when hitting heavy bone.
We are considering a new proto type design.
We would appreciate your input?
In your opinion what works best?
Does your bleeder fit bear razorheads, especially the greenies? Are the bleeders available separately? Thanks!
In my opinion a solid steel cunstruction and non vented blades would turn that head into a killer bulletproof design. There isnt really another option for a heavy broadhead thatoptioa replaceable blade
No the bleeder blade will not fit the Bear Razor head. Ours has a lot more cut surface as well.
The bleeder blades are available as replacements: however we give 7 extra per package of three broadheads along with the three on the broadheads. That is a total of 10 per package.
If you need bleeder blades just buy our broadheads and retire the Bear Razor Heads like I was forced to do.
I have been thinking of the solid concept at 175 or 200 grain all steel no aluminum with the bleeder blade.
At 200 grains and solid steel i would definitely pick up a few packs. The main drawback to the current model for me is the lightweight aluminum ferrule
Not too mention i know myself and many trad shooters that i have talked to prefer the non vented blade design over venter for strength and quiet flight.
One pc heavy heads would be awesome. I use 300 grain heads myself so it would be nice to try them out.
I actually like the vented profile of the blades, they make for one of the most forgiving heads I've ever shot. Even with the very wide bleeders they are very forgiving. These heads put a hole in the picture with a massive cutting diameter.
By the way we have the R-1 100 Grain.
Cost Reduction Sale for a limited time $24.99 for a pack of three.

That's a heckuva nice deal on brand new broadheads with a warranty like ya'll have.
I truly hope you sell a ton of 'em!!!
I'd be buying, but i just snagged a half dozen of my old timey favorites...and my Mrs./CFO ain't havin' no more shennanigans outta me!
Our replaceable bleeder blades will not fit the old Bear Razor Head. We have also made our wit a much wider cut to open up the wound channel better.
For each pack of 3 R-1 broadheads you get 7 extras bleeder blades and including the three all ready on the broadheads that is a total of 10 bleeder blades.
We will sell bleeder blades for our broadheads separately.
Please review our shot penetration evaluation!

The R-1 looks nothing like a Bear Razorhead. Why don't you just market them as they are with the features they have? Don't try to get Bear Razorhead involved with it.

Because in design and theory they are very similar, solid two blade head with a thin bleeder blade that is meant to be Bendable
I have bow hunted for over 45 years and shot the Bear Razor Head for about 30 of those years and once I could not get them any more I designed the R-1 to suet my needs and be the lease expensive to shoot as well as the deadliest. With the bleeder blade it has a total of 2 and a half inches of total cut. It opens a wound channel like no other broadhead in the world and penetrates as good as any made.
It's All About The Blood Trail!
I'd be all over a 175 gr. head.
Yep....175 has been my go to weight for 30 years.
We forgot to mention these broeadheads are tax free when purchased on line and our shipping is free!!!!!

We have the R-1 100 Grain on sale for $24.99 package right now!
These penetrate as well as any other 125 or 150 grain head out there.
I know every one wants a heaver head but think about the fact that most misses are due to yardage estimation. The lighter head reduces that issue.
How can you go wrong with that pricing point with a proved designee and the best warranty in the industry?
