Default rage 2 or 3 blade?

After reading posts here and talking to several people who have switched, I am going to give Rages a try. My question is which is better, 2 or 3 blade? Also how do they perform when hitting bone? Sorry if this was already discussed but I don't get on here too often.

Mr. T,
I have used both and personally like the 2 blade better. I have never had any problems recovering any deer w/ either blade. Just like the larger cutting diameter of the 2.

I switched to the 2 blade, I think they had some issues with the 3 blade.

the 3 blade heads had an issue with blade retention the first year they came out, has been fixed for a while now though. Both heads will function properly, but most prefer the 2 blade. Less moving parts I guess. I shoot the 2 blades as well.

I shoot the 2 blade with my Compound! Great head, very durable. Killed one this past late season, broke ribs going in and out stuck in a tree, I cleaned it up, sharpened it and back in the quiver it went! Oh yeah they fly just like my field points!
