Default Rage Shooters

Is there anyone who hunted with the rage 2 blade, that is not going to beusing it this year?

If so why not?

I have been on and off the fence so many times it's nuts[8D]
If the slick tricks I just bought shoot well, I am going to use them.

I really don't know why, right now I am still on the fence[&:]

I bought some but I'm on the fence about using them because I'm afraid of the blades opening up before their supposed to.

Im still on the fence. I've been going back and forth between the Rage and the G5 Striker the last few weeks. Both fly like field tips. Both fly great over 40 yards. Both make big holes. My biggest thing is sharpness out of the box. The Striker is the sharpest broadhead I have ever come across.

Honestly it's not a thread meant to bash the heads. I reallyam going totry them this year based onthe good posts from many of you. I was just wondering about the flip side, if someone was not going to use them, was it more a financial decision or something else..??

I shoot the strikers and they are scary sharp. I am going to try a rage this year, only because I have a cousin that shot them last year and I'm telling you what.. When you can stick your fist in an entry hole that is one serious hole..

OH, he has been using them for some time and is continuing to use them to answer you question.. I have not come across anyone personally that says they are going to stop using them, only those who "might" try them..
