Bear hunting demands penetration, structural strength, reliable deployment and a wound channel built to support a fast recovery.
Black Bear and Grizzly Bear present different levels of body mass, bone structure and shot difficulty, but both demand confidence at impact. For Bear, Speed recommends the Titanium 100 with its one-piece Grade 5 titanium ferrule, chisel tip and Patented Piston Lock Technology.
The Titanium 100 is our recommendation for both. Black Bear hunters benefit from the balance of penetration and a large 2.0-inch cutting diameter, while Grizzly hunters gain the maximum ferrule durability and structural strength of one-piece Grade 5 titanium.
BLACK BEAR
Penetration + Recovery
Black Bear can combine thick hide, dense muscle and difficult shot angles. The Titanium 100 gives hunters a durable one-piece titanium ferrule, a 2.0-inch cutting diameter and extremely low-force deployment to preserve energy for penetration.
Grizzly Bear hunting puts maximum emphasis on broadhead structure and penetration. The Titanium 100 combines a one-piece Grade 5 titanium ferrule and chisel tip with Speed's Patented Piston Lock Technology.
Black Bear hunting rewards a broadhead that can penetrate efficiently while creating the largest practical wound channel.
The Titanium 100 gives Black Bear hunters a one-piece Grade 5 titanium ferrule, chisel tip and razor-sharp .039-inch EDM-cut stainless blades. Patented Piston Lock Technology requires 1.5 lbs on impact to fully deploy and lock open, helping preserve forward energy for penetration while delivering a full 2.0-inch cutting diameter.
Grizzly Bear hunting demands absolute confidence in broadhead structure, deployment and penetration.
The Titanium 100 is built around a one-piece Grade 5 titanium ferrule with a chisel tip for demanding impacts. Patented Piston Lock Technology keeps the blades from opening in flight and requires 1.5 lbs on impact to fully deploy and lock open. Once deployed, the blades stay locked open to maintain the 2.0-inch cutting profile through the wound channel.
The Titanium 100 is the Speed Broadhead recommendation for both Black Bear and Grizzly Bear hunters.
Its one-piece Grade 5 titanium ferrule and chisel tip are engineered for maximum ferrule durability and structural strength. Combined with a 2.0-inch cutting diameter, .039-inch EDM-cut stainless blades and Patented Piston Lock Technology, the Titanium 100 gives Bear hunters a broadhead built to penetrate, cut and stay together through demanding impacts.
A Bear broadhead has to remain locked in flight, deploy with minimal resistance, penetrate efficiently and maintain a devastating cutting profile through thick hide, dense muscle and bone.
PENETRATION
Low-force deployment helps preserve forward energy for penetration through demanding Bear shot conditions.
CUT SIZE
A 2.0-inch cutting diameter and blades that lock open maintain a large wound channel throughout penetration.
DURABILITY
The Titanium 100 uses a one-piece Grade 5 titanium ferrule for maximum structural strength.
SHOT CONDITIONS
Patented Piston Lock Technology keeps the blades from opening in flight and controls deployment on impact.
PATENTED PISTON LOCK TECHNOLOGY
1.5 lbs Locked in Flight
Speed Broadheads' Patented Piston Lock Technology requires 1.5 lbs on impact to fully deploy and lock open — the lowest deployment force of any mechanical broadhead.
The blades cannot open in flight. On impact, the rear-deploy blade system opens with extremely low resistance to preserve forward energy for penetration, then locks the blades open through the wound channel.
Speed mechanical broadheads are engineered around blade retention, extremely low-force deployment, razor-sharp .039-inch blades and a 2.0-inch cutting diameter. For Bear hunters, the goal is simple: structural strength, penetration and a wound channel designed for recovery.
Speed recommends the Titanium 100 for Black Bear because it combines a one-piece Grade 5 titanium ferrule with a 2.0-inch cutting diameter and Patented Piston Lock Technology.
Which Speed broadhead is best for Grizzly Bear?+
Speed recommends the Titanium 100 for Grizzly Bear because its one-piece Grade 5 titanium ferrule and chisel tip prioritize maximum durability and structural strength.
Are mechanical broadheads good for Black Bear?+
Yes. Speed mechanical broadheads cannot open in flight and require 1.5 lbs on impact to fully deploy and lock open, allowing hunters to combine penetration with a large 2.0-inch cutting diameter.
Are mechanical broadheads good for Grizzly Bear?+
Yes. The Titanium 100 is built for demanding big-game impacts with a one-piece Grade 5 titanium ferrule, chisel tip, low-force deployment and a 2.0-inch cutting diameter.
Is a 2-inch broadhead good for Bear hunting?+
Yes. Speed Broadheads require 1.5 lbs on impact to fully deploy and lock open, helping preserve energy for penetration while still delivering a devastating 2.0-inch cutting diameter.
Can Speed mechanical broadheads open in flight?+
No. Speed's Patented Piston Lock Technology retains the blades so they cannot open in flight no matter the speed of the shot.
How much force does a Speed broadhead require to deploy?+
Patented Piston Lock Technology requires 1.5 lbs on impact to fully deploy and lock open.
How thick are Speed broadhead blades?+
Speed mechanical broadheads use .039-inch stainless steel blades manufactured with EDM cutting and individually honed to sub-100 on the BESS scale.
