I will be entering my 29th season as a bow hunter. For the most part I've used two types of broadheads - the old Razor Back 5's, and mostly Thunderhead 125's when they stopped making the RB's.

I've been bow hunting since 1985 and what you've just described is almostmy exact senario.......I still have a few ofthe razorbacks laying around.
Actually during one season, I did shoot thosehuge Andersons. Quite impressive to look at, but that's about it.They flew like a wounded goose. Muzzy four blades accompanied a few hunts as well. Thunderhead 125s were key though, and I always went back to them.If I didn't switch this year to Rage, I would still be shooting TH 125s.
As I stated in an earlier thread, I was luredto Rageby the pics of those gaping entry and exit holes. Just last night I killed a doe at 28 yards. It was an absolute amazing blood trail. Found herabout 20 yds from my arrow.
All in all I'm 90% soldon Rage two blades. The only downfall I could find is that I noticed that the actual broadhead flys ever so slightly different than the practice head. I don't know if anyone else had this happen, but to give me a piece of mind, I superglued three of the broadheads to keep them from opening. I just use them for practice now, and don't have to worry about replacing o-rings.....It's the targets that I'm replacing now.
I do wonder though how much heavier the glued heads are. I only applied a few drops.

i did have the problem with rage slightly of then the practice but slightly is still a great shot unless or yore than3-5 inch off....i DONT trust rage 3 blade with a deers life. too many bad reviews and if i recall they had a recall on them
2-blade all they way i use them on a black bear...24 yrs shot bear went 15 yrs before the death moan JMO
