Who all on here likes to bowhunt and what kind of broadheads do you use

I would rather hunt with my bow than with a firearm.  I prefer fixed blades just because you know they will work, every time you launch them.  I have been tempted to try mechanical, but haven't yet.
My favorite all time broadhead is the Rocky Mt Iron Head.  Awesome broadhead in my opinion.  Hate Muzzy heads.  Bought my daughter G5s this year but she didn't connect on the deer this time, maybe this coming year.

Started out shooting High Country Bows, but just switched to a BowTexch before this past season and love it.  Killed a couple of hogs and a couple of deer with it.  Great bow.

I shoot a diamond Justice that ive had for about 6 years.  I shoot the Blackout XP3 arrows from BPS with an 85 grain muzzy.  So far every arrow thats left my bow shooting the muzzy has put a deer in my freezer.  Good blood trail and the furthest ive had a deer go is 20 yards.

Rage baby

Slick trick!!

I use blood runners

G5t3

Rage

I bought out a bunch of rocky mountain snyper broad heads just so happened I bought the bow at the right time and they were clearing them out same thing as rage but are held with a rubber band on the outside instead of the oring. Massive wound channels and very forgiving on shot placement.

Just got back from canada on a bear hunt and tried out the new rage extreme 2 blade chisel tip...holy number 2 is all i can say. Looked like a massacre. Dropped a 6'5" bear from 25 yrds, and he only went 30 yards

slick trick magnum from a diamond razor edge
use to use rage 2 blade, there great (when they stay together) fixed blade only now

Slick trick

Rage 3- blade 100gr

Gonna try the chisel tips this year

Any of y'all ever had a Rage open in flight ?

I have, I went to nap blood runners from a friend and ain't looked back.

They will do crazy stuff when they open in flight

I shoot a z7 extreme first shot the t3 then switched to the new rage they don't have rubber bands they have plastic clips

I shoot a Destroyer 350. I had a rage open in flight and caused me to shoot like 6 feet over a deers back. My Dad and Son witnessed it. The metal spider clip sold me on the T3.

I love to bow hunt ,I've been bow hunting over 35 yrs lol , multiple bows and the same with broad heads , I shoot a Mathews outback now and a 4 blade muzzy , the four blades are easier to tune than the three ,I tune all my arrows with broad heads , this will improve your accuracy , my bow has about a 70 yard range and then you will be aiming at the moon , I can hit a pop can at 70 with this set up just about every time

you ain't lying, I was set up abt 15' off a canal bank in my climber year before last and had a monster doe lol (honestly the biggest doe i've ever seen).......any way i'm watching her walk staight into my shooting lane and was 100% ready before she ever made it to my lane, im sitting there smiling to myself thinking man this is way to easy, (where she is walking out is less than 20yds from me)  rolleyes......anyway she stepped into my lane without a clue that I was there looking the other direction, I drew back, settled in and released....as soon as I let go I knew something was wrong....that arrow sounded like a flock of woodducks buzzing the decoys as soon as I released......I watched it hit in the canal about 10' over her back...... 1 of the blades on my rage had opened when I released.........needless to say that was that as far as rages go for me.....I switched to nap bloodrunners and had had nothing but good things to say about them. I killed a coyote, 2 does and a bobcat with 1 3 blade bloodrunner broadhead before I retired it. I like the fact that it doesn't matter if they open or not, they are going to cut and make a wound channel.

When the G5s first came out I bought a pack and out to the woods I went, all I can say is that I killed three deer and nine hogs all with the same tip, different arrows but like I said same tip :o

Couldn't pay me to shoot a rage or any other expandable. I'm hardcore trophy hunter, if the biggest buck of my life is coming in chasing a doe, last thing I want to worry about is an early blade deployment or more importantly staying away from his front shoulders. I shoot G5 montecs, strikers, and an occasional 4 blade muzzy

I've personally seen too many sob story's of guys losing hellacious bucks to rages in the shoulder. Sure I agree they are devastating with the right shot placement but I don't want any asterisks placed on my broadhead when I'm hunting for big bucks

I shoot a Darton DS3800 with grim reaper 1-3/8 expandables if I went back to a fixed blade I would prob go with the Magnus two blade

I have been using the Sonic broad head for yrs. complete pass through on everything shot. You could not pay me to use Rages or Swackers. Seen to many not even pass through deer, let alone big 250-300lb hogs.

I just switched to meat seekers by trophy ridge so far to pigs and no issues.  My dad has used them a fe years now and he never has either.

Rage two blade wont shoot anything else. 100 grain. Killed a doe, ram N three hogs with them. The doe dropped in her tracks, one hog went 10 one went 15 one when 60 yards. The ram when 15 and died. Always leave a massive entrance.  They say on the package they open in flight. Read the label

Muzzy 100gr 1 1/2 cut, only lost 2 deer and both were my fault for not giving enough time to bleed out. I dont trust a mechanical bc of the reason justin explained.

i used to shoot rage until i was in my stand and one of the biggest bucks ive ever seen came into shooting distance when i let the arrow fly it opened midflight and messed up the flight path and didnt hit the deer ive shot a few deer with rage and liked them until it opened midflight. so now its either slick trick schwacker or muzzy.
