Shwackers over Rage...I shot two does at the first of the season right in the crease with Rage 100 gr. Both were bleading like I had never seen before for about 50-60 yards then nothing...no blood, guts, anything. I looked for both deer at least 2-3 hours that afternoon and again in the morning and didn't find anything...I shot the next doe with a Shwacker 100 gr. while she was walking quatering towards me at 28 yards (only shot I had). The arrow went in the stomach and through the hind quarter. I found her less than 75 yards away from my stand...I had to throw those Rage broadheads away after that. I know some people that love them but they just didnt work for me...

Slicktrick 100gr Grizztricks. Baddest broadhead I've ever seen. Looks cheap, and will tear up if you hit bone, but for one shot they are NASTY

How do the Swackers shoot compared to the field tips? Thats one big thing I like about the Rages.

Swacker this year bc of the muzzy type tip.. Bone breaker! It flies exactly like a field point too. Used muzzy,thunder and rage in years passed. Just like the way its set up over the rage.

Shot this deer at 40 yards with a Grim Reaper last January...slight quartering away when hit and it went through and lodged in offside shoulder blade...he went 50 yards, bought the farm...no exit so not alot of blood at first, only deer I ever shot with Grim Reapers but I've heard nothing but good things. They penetrate and punish like Muzzy...

I second everything he just said. You won't find a sharper head.
