They will do crazy stuff when they open in flight
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)
......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.
