Broadheads

[mnguy152]

I shoot is the T3 from g5 worked well on my deer this last fall.

The best broadhead is the one you can put in the rib cage! I'm impressed with the many good selections available. A Rage sure worked well on the buck I shot last year, a bad shot and it ran for about ten seconds and dropped dead, never got farther than 40 yards from me. Can't say another one in the same spot wouldn't have done as well but I like the large wound channel a Rage makes.

A buddy read this post and gave me his Muzzy Mx4s - they seem to shoot better when you dont' have to pay for them!!

buddy shot a deer with a rage earlier this week - punched thru one shoulder and sliced the top off the far scapula, with about a 3 inch exit wound. it was nuts

Rage 2 Blade here.

2 deer have been harvested with them for me. Gapping wound channels and fly straight for me.

Most important thing for me they are sharp and they hit where you are aiming them.

Confidence in a broadhead is a must, if you have any doubts in the heads you are using.....change.

Slicktricks with the mag blades, they hit with the field points 0-60 yards.

G5 Strikers. They fly very close to field tips. Shot Rage 2 one year, and will never use them again. They didn't penetrate like a fixed blade. Shot a big doe through the shoulder blade at 8 yards and never found her. Good blood trail though. Using a 57# Fred Bear TRX400 & Maxima Hunter arrows.

G5 Strikers here also. 1 doe and 1 buck so far and both pass thrus with very good blood trails. If your looking for a fixed blade, you should definately consider them. I like that I can replace the blades and sharpen the tip myself. Fly very good, just like my field tips.

That being said, I gave them to my son who will be bow hunting for the first time this year. I was actually thinking of trying the rage 2 blade, but I'm on the fence about it because I only have my draw weight at 55 lbs. I will probably get another pack of Strikers.

i personally like the spitfire pros. they always leave an impressive hole ( 1 1/2 in. hole not a slice) last year i switched to rage and had a bad experience. good entry (about 3 1/2 inch slice!)and exit wound right benind the shoulder but virtually no blood,all the blood was sealed inside, but i was lucky enough to find the animal. have a friend had same thing happen but wasnt fortunate enough to find his. this could be the result of shooting them on the ground i have yet to see the results first hand from a tree, looks like the guys on tv dont have a problem. i dont want to make them sound terrible obviously enough people have great success with them. I am going to switch back to the spitfires but i think im going to try the new MAXX i have also been looking at the new phathead SOB's.

Buy some Slick Tricks. Bought some yesterday after hearing about them over and over... they are awesome.

I have shot a der with some old thunderheads. I have shot the spitfire? mechanicals, but I did not like them very much-I did not get much consistency out of them. I am currently shooting montecs. Worked well for me last year.

Heres a pic of a rage 2 blade that I pulled out of the buck I shot last season. Deployed just as it was in the body cavity when I removed it. The piece of arrow is shorter as it broke when I removed it but was about 8 inches long. No noticeable wound on the deer. I suspect poor shot choice as it appeared to have entered from above by the base of the neck near the shoulderblades. I think the most important point is make good shots and most any broadhead will do the job but poor shot choices can result in lost and wounded animals. I shoot G5 strikers and also like the slick trick mags as well. Had pass throughs on elk and deer with these heads and they fly well from my setup.
