Tominator Posted October 26, 2007 Report Share Posted October 26, 2007 For mechanicals I'd recommend the Rage 2 blade. For fixed, I'd recommend Muzzy 100 gr. or the Thunderhead 100 gr. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zippyswamp Posted October 26, 2007 Report Share Posted October 26, 2007 I smoked two deer this year with the Grim Reaper broad heads. The first was a doe at 20 yards. Shot her through the pump station and she went only 40 yards. The second was a 190# three year old this last Tue. And it only went 45 to 50 yards with one heck of a blood trail. I would post some pictures, but being new to the forum I don't know how! As for the rage heads, don't use the three blade, my buddy shot a doe on our first week of archery season, with a complete pass through and it never opened. No blood, just a soaked arrow and head. He did find the deer a week later. It was a good shot, but just two holes and no blade marks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maytom Posted October 27, 2007 Report Share Posted October 27, 2007 Rage Three blade. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdvantageTimberLou Posted October 27, 2007 Report Share Posted October 27, 2007 Lots of great choices, you can't go wrong with a Muzzy or G5 broadhead. I have G5 strikers, Muzzy MX-3's for fixed blades, and for a mechanical I have some Aftershock Hypershocks. I am happy with them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Finn Posted October 27, 2007 Report Share Posted October 27, 2007 I use Muzzy 100 grains in either 3 or 4 blades. Have tried many other broadheads and keep coming back to Muzzy. The work very well, fly great, and cost half of what mechanicals cost. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Posted October 27, 2007 Report Share Posted October 27, 2007 i shoot Muzzy3 bladed 75s. the thing i like about Muzzys is that there only 30 bucks for 6. you can buy replacement blades that slip in and lock tight together. they dont have any o rings to play with. that Trocar tip blows through bone. for me they are kind of a no brainer. plus they shoot great out of my setup. heres a pic of what it does to does. Shoot Strong Tony Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Squirrelhunter91 Posted October 27, 2007 Report Share Posted October 27, 2007 I'm gonna have to agree with Tony. Muzzy all the way. I shoot Muzzy 3-blade 100's out of my bow and they fly exactly like my field tips and are very very deadly. Plus you can't beat the price. Here's what my set up does..

The Kid Posted October 27, 2007 Report Share Posted October 27, 2007 i've been hearing a lot of good things about these rage two broadhead but for me personally i don't think you could go wrong with a montec, one piece, they hit like a hammer and you can resharpen them if you want.

Guest Grim Reaper2 Posted October 27, 2007 Report Share Posted October 27, 2007 For mechanicals I'd recommend the Rage 2 blade. For fixed, I'd recommend Muzzy 100 gr. or the Thunderhead 100 gr. for mechanicals i would recommend to use side winders/pse brutes they punch and 1 3/4 hole and are around $10 for 3 ( thats wat i pay for them) and for fixed i would say montecs or muzzys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shawn Posted October 28, 2007 Report Share Posted October 28, 2007 i still uses fixed Thunderhead 100s, never had a problem yet. Still tear them up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smo Posted October 29, 2007 Report Share Posted October 29, 2007 After hearing about all the rage of the rage broadheads, I decided to try for myself. The are the 2 blade design, and I'm am totally impressed. It's leave's a hole like you've never seen. I've shot many different broadheads over the years, and this is the best performing head ever. I've seen post in the past that some rage heads won't stay closed. All you have to do is rotate the o-ring a little one way or the other and they stay closed.

8ptbuckpa Posted October 29, 2007 Report Share Posted October 29, 2007 If you try the Rage use 2 blades not 3 there has been a could amount of problems reported to the local archery shop about the 3 blades not opening or not shutting when practicing with them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
camoman1 Posted October 29, 2007 Report Share Posted October 29, 2007 I use NAP Spitfires 85gr. I love em.. They dont look like much..but they pack a punch even the small 85's. Fly great too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Indy-Travis Posted October 30, 2007 Report Share Posted October 30, 2007 A lot or mechs. don't fair will in targets, but do well on deer. I did have a 3-blade rage fail to open on a doe, quartering shot that exited through the off shoulder and it still didn't open. Found her but there was no blood trail. For fixed heads, you can't go wrong with Slicktricks. Four blades of flying hemorage waiting to happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
proudowner Posted October 30, 2007 Report Share Posted October 30, 2007 I shoot Rocky Mountain Premier 100 gr fixed blad. Boy are they outstanding!! I think for their price that they have to be one of the best. I saw were someone shot one into a steel pipe accidentally and the blades didnt beak for bend!! The guy cut that piece of the pipe out and the archery shop had it for a while! When I saw that the 3 blades went into the pipe and never broke or bent the blades that this was the broadhead for me!
