Has anybody had experience with both of these heads?
I' ve had good experience with the shockwaves, but the revolutions seem to offer an advantage of rearward blade opening with little drawback.
I' v had good luck with shockwaves, every deer I' ve loosed an arrow at over the past three years has fell within sight, but my setup is borderline for KE with mechanicals, according to the " experts" , and I must admit my 27" 400 ICS hunters at 57lbs have failed to pass thru on some of the larger deer I' ve shot, if hitting a rib solidly. Also, all three I shot this year were a quartering away shot, and all three arrows lodged in the off shoulder, without breaking through.
I' m just thinking about the day when I don' t get perfect shot plaacement, and an exit hole will come in handy, and figured I' d ask if anyone has tested them side by side, or used both, and has any opinions.
It seems to me the revolution may give an extra few inches of penetration, due to the blade system, and still allow me the same number and size of blades.
I' m only hunting deer, so I doubt " toughness" is an issue with either head, I' m more interested in quality, sharpness, and reliability, and most importantly, penetration.
