Broad Heads

[steelforce]

Has any one tried the Rage Broad Head. Ben hearing good thing about it was thinking about trying them this year. If you get the chance go to the Rage Broad Head site and check out the video on them I was really impressed with the blood trails the were getting for them. The entry wound was also some thing to see for an open on impacted broad head. I have used a wide variety of fixed blade and open on impacted broad head since I started bow hunting and have never got entry wounds that looked like the ones they were getting or blood trails.

I saw the videos. The entrance woulds look like a slug gun hole.

The last blood trail I seen like that is the buck I shot with my powder gun last year.

I have heard good and bad.. I heard if the deer's quartering any only one blade will open up resulting in a marginal shot.. I also heard that blades open up in flight and causing poor flight.. I heard shoulder shots are a bad deal also no penatration.. But like with any broadhead, shot placement is key, so you can't blame a bad shot on your broadheads either..

I'll stick with my muzzys, cheaper, and blow through bone.. I might give the G5 strikers a shot this season too..

Cool I will let you know how they work out. Think I will still keep my Steelforce just in case. Don't want to try something on a big buck until it proves its self in the field to me.

Does that mean you don't want a big bruiser to walk by your stand opening day? You only gonna shoot little toe-heads til you finish the field test?

I think they'd be awesome heads, just cant force myself to change.. I watched the videos on the rage web site, the 2 blade leaves some gigantic entrance wounds.. geeze

No I will take whatever comes out just a different stick and blade ready if its something for the wall. The rage does have a big entrance wound. hope to find out for my self soon.
