Default shot one with 2 blade RAGE

I shot my second deer of the year the other evening, the first was with a 3 blade RAGE - was not impressed with it's performance. I shotthis one was with a 2 blade RAGE and was even less impressed. The shot was at 12 yards, broadhead entered in the shoulder facing me and exited about 4 ribs behind the other shoulder taking out both lungs.
My brother was with me and filmed the hunt. We watched the deer as she ran off expecting her to fall at any time. At about 100 yards she stopped and layed down with her head down. We reviewed the video and saw the shot was near perfect. We waited til dark, packed up all of our gear and then headed to where she lay about 20-25 minutes after the shot. We got to where she had layed down and there was no deer to be found and little blood in the bed where she layed.
We decided to go to the house and wait before trailing any further after hearing a deer walking in the leaves ahead of us. Upon returning an hour later we found the doe about 60 yards from where she had first bedded down and right where we had heard the deer in the leaves earlier.
A 2 inch cut thru both lungs and this deer traveled over 150 yards and lived at least 25 minutes. These heads receive a lot of positive press and exposure on TV. Well I think I've given them a fair testing and to me they are pi$$ poor. You could not give me another oneof these overpriced pieces of JUNK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The only reason I tried these RAGE heads was because friends had given them to me to test. THAT'S ENOUGH testing for me! It's back to my MUZZYS now, I know what they will do.
