AaronS Posted April 19, 2005 Report Share Posted April 19, 2005 Does anyone shoot this broadhead, or is it new to the market? The guy in the brown truck brought me a pack of them yesterday, and they are slightly different than the picture shows. The cut-on-impact blade (they call it their bacon slicer or something like that) in the picture curves back from the point and sticks out a good amount from the ferrule. On the broadheads I received, the bacon slicer is triangular shaped, meaning the sides go straight back from the tip and are not curved. This results in the blade being just barely wider than the ferrule, and I'd imagine resulting in less effective cutting. Anyone have any opinions? It just bugs me when things don't come exactly as advertised. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest kracey Posted April 19, 2005 Report Share Posted April 19, 2005 Re: Rocket Aerohead Steelhead XP I have not used them and thought about using them this year myself. They are suppose to be the best mechanical out there. I have seen a lot of good things on tv, on the web and on here (Realtree Forum).They claim they pass through better than all other mechanicals and fixed blades and they stand on that if not you get your money back.

PAbowhunter4life Posted April 20, 2005 Report Share Posted April 20, 2005 Re: Rocket Aerohead Steelhead XP I have seen what these things do in person and on the net. DO NOT WORRY ABOUT CUTTING DIAMETER. Even though these things are rated at 1 1/8", they manage to open up wounds much larger than what they are rated at. I have not heard or read one bad thing about these heads and I would not hesitate for one second to use them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AaronS Posted April 20, 2005 Author Report Share Posted April 20, 2005 Re: Rocket Aerohead Steelhead XP Well that makes me feel a little better. I'll give them a try this year and see how they do. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AaronS Posted April 20, 2005 Author Report Share Posted April 20, 2005 Re: Rocket Aerohead Steelhead XP I also have the 100 gr. heads Bossmoss. Is the bacon slicer blade on your heads like the picture in the ad, or like mine? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
