Does anybody use them and how do the hold up when they hit bone? Do they open by themselves or in your quiver? Can you stalk and hit a twig without having the open "by accident"? Please don't tell me to try the Rage broadheads because I've been there and didn't like the results. __________________ I’m a Republican because everyone can’t be on welfare.

| I love them and they are great. Haven't lost deer since switching from fixed heads. They fly just like field points. I have been consistent out to 50 yards. It can get expensive if you like to shoot a lot of deer. I still think the are worth it. You should try 'em. I shoot 70lbs out of my matthews sbxt with the 100 grain razor tips> i believe . I ve been using them for 3 years and have 2 other friends who believe in them also. good luck. | ||

Razorcaps I like these myself.. But if I were to use mechanicals this year it would be rage or grim reapers. I have seen some amazing shooting with both of them. No broadhead tuning, just screw them on and shoot them. I watched the show on outdoor channel the other night with the Gregorys, can't remember the name of it but the wife shot a deer at around 40 yards with a chick bow and penetrated both shoulder blades with a rage head. When I saw where she hit it, I cringed then when they went and found it they said she shot through both shoulders. Amazing for any bow and broad head at 10 yards let alone 40 with a mechanical and probably a bow not more than 50-55 lbs.. __________________ "from my cold dead hands"

I swithed to mechanicals last year. The first deer I shot dropped within 15 yards. But I also cut a quarter of the heart apart. Blood drained right out. __________________ NJH PRO STAFF >>--->

Most broadheads today are disposable. Thunderheads and muzzies have replacement blades but. I'd rather only have to shoot once and replace the broadhead. __________________ EAT SLEEP HUNT Make your dreams a reality. Take a kid hunting. Film your next hunt. www.nloutdoors.com

Dont mea to hijack the thread. But Im looking to switch to Muzzy mx-6. I hear there is little tuning involved because of the profile of the head. Anyone use these and dont have to adjust when shooting field tips? __________________ Back straps..It's whats for dinner.

| I shot grims last yr with awsome results. they hit hard and dont stop when they hit bone. i only use them or good old spitfires. And when they say the gims fly like feild point, they meen in the same groups not to one side or the other. i use the razor tipped ones. and blades change easly. | ||

| love the grimm reapers. i dont like to re-use them though after a kill. the rage broadheads look like and remind me of the gator broad heads that came out years ago and dont like that scissor type design. i would recommend with any mechanical broadhead to please wait for a good shot broadside and dont take any hard fancy angle shots because i dont trust any mechanical broadhead to open properly but thats just me. | ||

Grim Reapers are the only one i'll use. I shoot them open or closed depending on how thick the cover.Never had a deer go more than 60 yds. One was still in perfect working condition after going through both shoulder blades at 18 yds with a 62lb bow.![]() ![]()
