[QUOTE="Sub_Elect, post: 64146, member: 1014"] Curious as to what you guys use. Good ones, ones to steer away from and ones you plan to try. I used to be a fixed guy and have killed a lot of deer with my bow (around 30). I started out shooting Wasp Hammer SST, they were good. Switched to Shuttle T-Locks and liked them, but impossible to resharpen. Went to Montecs, easy to resharpen, but the holes were on the small side. Went to Slick tricks, and had one break off at the arrow, lost the deer and haven't shot them since. Then switched to the original Rages. Penetration was not great, but I killed around 5 deer with them and all of the deer went down within 50 yards. This season I switched to Rage Hypodermics and was very disappointed. The deer I shot in Iowa went down within 70 yards of where he was hit, but the broadhead broke off at the shaft and he wasn't recovered for 2 days. I went out to the Badlands and shot a little buck, the first arrow penetrated to the fletchings, and the deer went down in about 40 yards, but I put another one in him for good measure and that one broke at the arrow shaft like the one in Iowa did. After a bunch of looking on the line, I think I will go back to Montecs, or I might switch to RamCats. What are you guys using this season, or going to use for next season? [/QUOTE]
