Any sharp BH will kill properly placed, just shoot what suits you.....Which is Rage for me, atleast for now anyway.

I switched to Rage 2 blade this year. They're fantastic. Spectacular blood trails. Complete pass throughs. Dead deer within sight from stand on four occasions.

If they went 60 yards with a Muzzy, they'll only go 20 with the Rage.

Seriously, I used them last year and they performed great on my 2 Whitetails. Massive blood trails.

I switched to Rage just now also. I have had super success with Rocky Moutain Irion Heads, but I switched.

I've seen first hand the destruction of a 2 blade rage. They're almost.......Gross. [:'(]

I picked up a pack of Hypershocks at the ATA this past January, I'm anxious to see how they perform as well.

There are a lot of quality heads out there today. I am not fond of mechanicals because I prefer my Broadheads to cut on impact instead of open. Mechanicals also tend to be on the fragile side. I like Slick Tricks, G5, Muzzy, and NAP heads. The new 08 GrizzTrick should be one Tough Devastating head.
