This time of the year I always have to get something new to try out. I don’t know why? Just a character flaw I guess. My Slick Tricks are right on and have never let me down but I just had to try out the new NAP Bloodrunners.
The Nap Bloodrunners are a new broad head that look like a neat idea. It is a 1 inch fixed head with a spring loaded point. When the broad head enters the animal the spring loaded tip retracts and that pushes 3 pivoting blades out to a 1 ½ inch cut. I thought this is a great idea. no mater what happens you have cutting surface going in.
Well the Bloodrunners flew about 4 inches to the right and 3 inches low than my field tips. But I could adjust fro that. Good penetration on the Block target. But the spring loaded tip made a ton of noise when the arrow is released. That would tell me the spring tip was retracting obviously not sprung enough. I mean lots of noise. No way would I use them in the field. I guess I could rig something up to hold the tip out like a little candle wax but at 40 bucks for 3 I should not have to.
Anyhow for all you guys looking to try them out the noise will disappoint you.
