Official Broadhead Damage Thread

Like a charm buddy! Rage are so low profile flight issues have always been none existant for me out of any bow. How do you like the Monster?

We are going out again this morning to try and get another hog.
 
yep that is the ones, thought they were montecs for some reason. There was another one i saw last night in cabelas mag, it was an F5 maybe...?? Had a main blade then two blades intersecting it, looks pretty interesting.
 
Ive herd lots of good review's on the T3's and I might end up trying some this year later in the season. I dont like the design of the Carbon Express F15...they make them in a fixed head or a mechanical. They are both $40 a pack, and I dont mind paying that for a decent mechanical head, but when it comes to fixed blades there's no way im paying $40 for them. IMO there are better heads out there for half the price that are tryed and true.
 
ZACK I love the monster!! Not as smooth drawing bow as I have shot before. But for how fast it is I dont have to pull as many pounds as I was and its still faster than my switchback. I took a look at the rage in the bow shop the other day the look like a great broadhead. I think thats what im going with.

Any more hogs? I would love to go south and stick some!!

I always belived in fixed blades, and I would still be shooting them if I could find a single one that will fly worth a darn from my new Mathews Monster. It just shoots so darn fast, I don't think any broadhead can stand it. I tried my trusty old Muzzy's, Strikers, Montec's, & Slik Trick's, before finally trying the Rage 3 blade. I was going broke trying out broadheds, they all shot like crap accuracy wise. I need to hit where I'm aiming and that's all there is to it. The Rages fly exactly like a field point, and the two deer I hit with them died very quickly with complete pass throughs. I will be using them again this year and have good confidence in them. I am switching to the 2 blade Rage's however, they seem to leave much larger holes and bleed twice as much from what I've seen.
 
That was my line of thinking originally as well, that is why I went with the 3 blade and the basic assumption is correct. However, my one complaint about the Rage 3 blade is that on both of my deer there was only minimal blood to follow. They died very quickly, but left a poor trail. From what I have read and the pictures I have seen, the extra cutting diameter of the 2 blade rage just makes a bigger hole, kills them just as good, and lets out buckets of blood. Most the guys I know who shoot a Rage use the two blade, and they love them. I'm gonna give the two blade a try just to see if I get the same results.
 
Let me know how they work.

I shoot 3 blade and the deer I've shot with them bled like you had cut there head off.

The blood trail started at the arrow and have been the best blood trails I've ever seen.

Good luck.
 
Well, I know that I said I was going to switch to the 2 blade Rage broadhead, but I was too cheap to buy a new pack before I headed to Nodak this past weekend. I used a 3 blade Rage that I already had. It did the trick on this guy. Spot on accurate, complete pass through, good blood trail, and the deer died about 50 yards from where he was shot.

You can see the entrance hole in this picture, I may still try the 2 blade version, but I'm sticking with Rage. Primary reason, accuracy. Before I left for this trip I was dropping practice Rage heads into a group I could almost put my hand around at 50 yards. I have yet to find a fixed blade that will do that, but am really not looking anymore.
 
I used the innerlock stainless 100gr. this year on elk. Here's a cleaned up pic. This bull was quartering away, the arrow entered about 10" behind the shoulder and exiting through the shoulder blade on the exit side. The amount of blood and damage was very impressive.

Just received my package of Grizz Tricks today, need to find some replacement blades for them now. Sure has a short profile to the head, nasty looking to.
