MichiganHunter Posted October 1, 2008 Report Share Posted October 1, 2008 You know A friend of mine...who's also my taxidermist uses them and he seams to like them....I switched last year to the Rage 2 Blade and I LOVE them, I shot my biggest buck ever with them and I know had I not use the rage i wouldn't of gotten him my shot was a little far back and high right next to the spine but almost a vertical shot the deer was 10 yards and i was 28ft up in a tree the rage cut EVERY artery accost that side of his spine and he bled out in 40 yards and died in 45. That was my first buck with a bow and he made Pope and Young. I LOVE RAGE if the three blades work half as well as the 2 blades your going to have great success.

Mirage Posted October 1, 2008 Report Share Posted October 1, 2008 Ok im glad you asked. I shot a 4 pointer sunday morning with the 3 bladed rage head the buck ran 50 yards fell over got back up and ran another 20 yard before he stopped. Big hole entry and exit very little blood though! I hit both lungs he was quarting toward me and exited his stomach. Thats why there was very little blood. The weird thing wa my broadhead was almost unscrew from my arrow???? My hunting partner shot a imapla in africa this year and when they found the arrow the head was missing!!!! he recovered the animal but thats strange dont you think???

Flintlock1776 Posted October 1, 2008 Report Share Posted October 1, 2008 I have not tried them but the cutting diameter is interesting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My hunting partner shot a imapla in africa this year and when they found the arrow the head was missing!!!! he recovered the animal but thats strange dont you think??? I've had an arrowhead disappear on me before. I heart shot a buck, he ran about 30 yds. The arrow was about 5 yds in front of him without the broadhead in it. Broadhead wasn't in the deer either...You've never shot your field points a few times and had to tighten them up a few twists? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tominator Posted October 1, 2008 Report Share Posted October 1, 2008 Shot the 2 blade version last year. 3 deer shot, 2 dead within 100 yards (one was dead within 15 yards). Lost the blood trail on the 3rd due to rain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RangerClay Posted October 1, 2008 Report Share Posted October 1, 2008 I'm trying the 2-blade this year. Ask me how I like them after I shoot a deer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Born4it Posted October 1, 2008 Report Share Posted October 1, 2008 Heard they're not as dependable as the 2 blades. Give em a shot though! Good luck, Ryan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
backwoods07 Posted October 1, 2008 Report Share Posted October 1, 2008 ^^^I've heard the same, but I'm gonna give them a go this weekend. After I shoot one, I'll come back and post Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hyperflow Posted October 1, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 1, 2008 Intresting, I hope i dont regret switching to rage. Anybudy actualy try to see if they do actualy fly like a field point? I normaly allways try but this year i dont have as much time and also police say i can;t shoot in the backyard no moe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest zach90 Posted October 1, 2008 Report Share Posted October 1, 2008 don't get the 3 blade. you can't get any better than the 2 blade though. Best on the market Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gitcha_some Posted October 2, 2008 Report Share Posted October 2, 2008 the two blade is the best broadhead on the market...havent heard or tried about the 3 blade but it doesnt look like it would be as dependable as the two blade, i do know the two blade makes a hole comparable to a 12 gauge slug!

I normaly allways try but this year i dont have as much time and also police say i can;t shoot in the backyard no moe. I have a practice Rage that I use whenever I shoot with my field points, and there is pretty much no difference. When I get out to about 30 yds or so, I start noticing a slight variation in pattern, but not big enough to ruin what would be a good shot with a field point. The Rage's fly great Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcs3344 Posted October 2, 2008 Report Share Posted October 2, 2008 ive been wanting to try this heads for a while now...ive picked them up and almost got to pay but always put them down. I heard and seen many pictures of the huge hole that they rage leaves. but ive also heard that the deer or animal did not bleed alot, and ive seen pictures of a big hole and no blood. I want a blood trail, not a big hole. if i cant find the deer i dont care how big the hole it makes... just my thoughts, so ill stick with muzzys. Rage is a hot broadhead and a lot of people like them, they seem good, i just dont want to take the risk i guess.??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hyperflow Posted October 2, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 2, 2008 i find that odd that it would leave a big hole with no blood? my jackhammer wasp leave monster holes and blood trails a blind retard could follow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course I have shot my feild points and they loosen up but they dont fall off at the first shot!! Im telling you something is NOT right witht these heads!! They did the job but They should not loosen up and fall off after the shot. I have used spitfires and never had one loosen up. It could be beacause they dont give a wrench to tighten and I used my hand to tighten it. But i have done that with others and with no trouble rage did this !
