They look nice, but I haven't tried them. Sorry that I couldn't be better help. Keep in mind that the big companies put the names on a less expensive blade for profit reasons... However, they must be a decent enough blade not to hurt their company name. (confusing hey)

I use the NEW Maniac broadhead fromAfterShock Archery and their awesome and made in the USA.Plus you can use them as a 2 or 4 blade.

Good Luck!

Those tips are probably made by Muzzy for Cabelas. They look a lot like a muzzy and have the same construction. Plus, the FX-3 designation is close enough to MX to figure it has to be theirs.

Now you know they don't.... Since you got those Muzzy Phantoms 220 gn. I guess now you have to go back to the outback to hunt big game.

Trocar tip is a Muzzy trade name. If Muzzy is making it, should be a good broadhead.

Good catch gselk. I didn't read the entire description. Those are definitely made by Muzzy then.

Going to the outback in mid December for 4 weeks

A few mates from over there have arranged a couple of hunts for me so it is going to be fun.

6 for $20.00??!! "If it's too good to be true . . ." I'm not a big fan of aluminum in broadheads, Can get dented, scratched, gouged, and ultimatley throw things off. Just not right for penetration either. The blades (being hollow and thin: .030") look likely to shatter on bone and not do you much good.
Look, in most hunting seasons, how many shots on game do you get? Why take a chance on bargain equiptment? Spend $25.00 for three Slick Tricks and sharpen them, or hbuy new blades every year.

Are you serious? The Muzzy has been used for over 20 yrs with great success and it's aluminum ferule. It's not like they use the same aluminum used for a soda can.

And .030 is thicker than many heads out there. If they are the Cabela version of the Muzzy there is absolutely nothing wrong with them.
