Default Crimson Talon Broadheads?

Hi guys. Just bought a pack of crimson talons on ebay for $26 shipped. I was wandering if these heads have been field tested by anyone or if anyone has any comments on them. I have the new ones with the hardened rockwell, and the only problem I ever heard with last year's was that the blades were breaking easy. What do you guys think?

Bump for comments as I am contemplating purchasing some as well. Last year they were illeagle in Pa for the 1st half of the year. This was because the cutting edge was not straight. They reviewed them and legalized them later in the year.

I have some from last year. They are nice heads and fly very well on my setup. I had no problems getting them to group with my field points. However, I never took them out hunting. I didn't feel comfortable with the blades. They just didn't seem strong enough. So I stuck with my Muzzy's.

I've heard that they've made some changes to the heads but I haven't looked at them recently.

Friend got some and the blades are wussy. They bend and break easily. A shoulder would definately destroy one. A block did[&:]

Junk,Junk,Junk don't waste your money, the blades are cheap, not saying they can't kill, their are many others out there that are much better, don't fall for the look or the ads.
