Not really crazy about it.I'd like it better if it had a single centered bleeder instead of the 2 outboard bleeders...or just a blade without the bleeder would be better yet

Personally I wouldn't use them with a Compound let alone my Longbow! To me it looks like there would be a penetration problem with all that trying to go thru something!! Just too much trying to do to much! I'll stick with a 2 or 3 blade, I'll keep it simple!!

To be honest I'm a little Interested In what they can do. They do look like they might be a tad to short and wide for a traditional set up when talking penetration. Maybe not though as pictures can be deceiving.

well with my understanding, afc and game trakker from a few years ago joined up. afc arrows died out. gametrakker kept making broadheads. soon production shifted to asian and new names came out. eastmanoutfitters (gametrakker) and carbon express (afc) and chances are the carbon express is made by eastman, yes the wally world broadheads!! i have tried a few eastmans just for the heck of it. they shoot well but they are very weak. i wouldnt shoot the new cx broadhead if it is in fact made by eastman

I'm thinking there's a broadhead that not even 6" banana fletchings could spin and stabilize. There's a reason the F-15 uses two tail stabilizers, and it ain't to make the plane easier to spin. Be nice to buy some and hang onto them. They'll look good in a broadhead collection after they've been discontinued and forgotten.
