Default RE: Price of rage

ORIGINAL: kwilson16

I bought 6 (+2 practice heads) for $60 on ebay.

I shot four deer and all died within sight of the stand. Blood trails were visbile from the stand with bino's. Time spent blood trailing: 0 minutes. What is your time worth?

You can re-sharpen the blades. I have not even opened the second three-pack.

They're worth every penny (IMO).

Maybe it's just me...I shot 2 of them this year, and they were DESTROYED. There were no blades to resharpen, and the ferrule was wasted. Replacement blades would have been useless. Now, I will say, in their defense, that one of them hit a rather large rock. Ok, not much is gonna stand up to that. BUT, I did that with a Magnus Stinger, and they replaced it, no questions. Will Rage do the same? No.

I just feel like it's time we take a bit of a stand, and say enough is enough. I mean, GIMME A BREAK! $40 for 3 freakin broadheads???? That's over $13 A PIECE.....

And the deer I've shot w/ Stingers and Slick Tricks all died w/in sight, and left phenominal blood trails as well. I only spent a bit more than half of that for those....$23 for 3....Are Rage great broadheads. Oh hell yes. But there is simply no way I'm paying that much for a broadhead. I'm just not gonna do it.
