We’ve gathered some of our most anticipated new fixed-blade broadheads for crossbows in 2021. We recently saw some exciting new models that made their debut at the virtual ATA 2021 show. We at ForgottenHunter always look forward to new broadheads. They always spark off fun discussions. We like to compare them and discuss how well they fly, cut, and penetrate. I also included a new budget fixed-blade broadhead. Some are of course also suited for recurve and compound bows.

Iron Will Single Bevel Broadheads
Iron Will also bring new single bevel broadheads to the market. These fixed-blade broadheads are designed for massive blood trails and a quick kill. They are constructed specifically to maintain the rotational spin of an arrow through impact, this results in a bone splitting effect and more tissue damage throughout the animal.
The broadhead’s single bevel bleeder (optional) assists in this rotation, opens up holes and increases the total tissue sliced for quick kills. Coupled with Iron Will’s A2 Tool Steel blades that stay sharp through the entire pass-through process.
The broadhead features a durable ferrule (titanium for lighter heads and stainless steel for heavier heads). The low profile .062” thick main blade has a cutting diameter of 1 1/16″ and minimizes wind effects and maximizes big game penetration. Iron Will decided to add the single bevel bleeder with a 3/4” cutting diameter to unzip a wound channel for easy blood tracking. (no bleeder on Buff blades)
Iron Will’s patented blade geometry includes a Tanto Tip on the end of each broadhead, which is utilized for maximum impact strength. The Tanto Tip reduces the surface area for greater accuracy at long distances.
The Iron Will Single Bevel Broadheads are available in 125-250 grains standard threads or deep-six threads and buff (no bleeder). Only purchase Deep Six Threads if you plan to use them with Easton 4mm shafts with Deep Six HIT Inserts.
Choose the Buff alternative if you would prefer a broadhead engineered without bleeder blades. The Buff option is ideal when the ultimate in maximum penetration is desired above all else on extremely large game, such as cape buffalo.
Anticipated to begin shipping in early March, 2021.

Iron Will Wide Series Broadheads
Iron Will bring new solid fixed-blade broadheads to the market in 2021; the Wide Series Broadheads. These solid heads are 30% wider than their other heads and create a bigger entry and exit hole resulting in a better blood trail. They are engineered to hit their mark and hold their edge all the way through the target. They are designed for encounters within 50 yards and under on medium-sized game like deer, elk, and black bear.
The Iron Will Wide Series Broadheads sport a hardened ferrule that ensures the broadhead stands firmly aligned with the arrow at impact. This aligns the arrow’s momentum to drive through the animal instead of bending and displacing the momentum sideways. The ferrule is made of titanium for lighter heads and stainless steel for heavier heads.
The broad and sleek .062” thick main blade creates a devastating 1 3/8″ wound channel, and the bleeder blade deals with an additional larger 3/4” wound channel resulting in a total cut of 2 1/8”. Even with the wider surface area, tight tolerances ensure precision accuracy so you can confidently hit your mark up to fifty yards away.
They are available in 100 up to 250-grain and use either standard threads or seep six threads that you can only use with Easton 4mm shafts with Deep Six HIT Inserts.
Anticipated to begin shipping in early March, 2021.
