NEVER shoot your practice broadhead at an animal. use new ones
I take it you've never shot
Silver Flames? Of the 4 Silver Flames that are in my quiver, I've shot 2 of them into a block target. Each of these two heads is
EVERY bit as sharp as the two that weren't shot into my Block target. If I laid all four of these heads on my workbench,
NOBODY- and I mean
nobody would be able to pick out the two heads that hit my Block target.
So why shouldn't I use either of these two "practice" heads on an animal? They are
EVERY bit as sharp as my other
SFs and probably
ALOT sharper than most broadheads coming
straight out of the pack.

I think he was talkingto the other 99% of hunters that do not use Silver Flames
.
So not only are you Shawn Perkins'
Official Spokesman, you also have access to
Broadhead Utilization Statistics that not even Broadhead
Manufacturers have been able to wrap their arms around and publish with
any degree of confidence?
Rob
I get my
Broadhead Utilization Statistics from the same place you get your
BroadheadSharpness Statistics. 
You've
never seen my archery tackle box, nor have you been privy to the
countless conversations I've had with
hundreds of bowhunters at numerous sportsman's shows here in the northeast. In
every one of these conversations, I show prospective Silver Flame customers two Silver Flames- one that's brand new &another that's been through a Block target 10 times, through two different deer & one bear. Not only can they
NOT tell me which one is the brand new SF head, they all say the same thing-
"That's the sharpest head I've ever seen/felt!"
As for being a German Kinetics' spokesman........ no. But have you figured it out yet that I'm a rep?
Knucklehead........ don't throw stones at a man with a
machinegun

I am betting that a G5 striker is just as sharp and will kill deer just as dead. Oh yeah, that's right, you're gonna use the striker in MA so
you'll get better blood trails and the silver flame out west because
because you don't think the strikers will be accurate at 45 yds (perhaps its the bow or the archer and not the BH
LOL). What good is" ...
the sharpest head I've ever seen/felt!" if you don't trust it to leave a good blood trail LOL. How much sharper past shaving hair does a BH need to be, to be worth almost $30 each
. Put some ammo in the machine gunfella
.
I would have never figured out that you were a rep for silver flames (German Kinetics). I assumed it was a quality company that associated with quality people. Guess I was wrong

[ul][*]100gr. G5 Strikers at home in MA over my Food Plot.[*]100gr. German Kinetics Silver Flames when I go out to Nebraska the first week of November.[/ul]
The reason for the two different heads? The G5 Strikers leave an unbelievably large, gapping exit hole
that sets the stage for a blood trail which even Ray Charles could follow. They fly very well in my set up
out to about 25 yards. The German Kinetics Silver Flames however, fly with my field points out to 45 yards
and penetrate like nobody's business.
In the thick hardwoods of MA, I may need a good bloodtrail if tracking at night & my shots will most likely be inside of 25 yards. In the relatively more open country of north central Nebraska, I may need to take a shot at a distance greater than 25 yards, so accuracy at a longer distance is more of a priority than 4" wide blood trails.
