I'll tell yuh Jim that the 100gr steelheads have worked for me thru alot of deer over the years with no problems at all. Never had a failure and they have zipped thru every deer hit properly. The company is now owned by Trophy Ridge and marketed at Wally-World so I don't know if they cut back on quality. Bands can be a pain in the neck if you practice alot but I just use small o-rings.

They are a crutch for having a poorly tuned bow and a real man would most likely use a fixed blade but until I use the handful of freshies I still have they will have to do.

I feel confident using them but if my arrows ever stop fishtailing on their way to the target I can grow up/man up and shoot fixed.
