Default RE: 2 Blade Rage Penetration

The doe I shot last year with the Rage broadhead wasn't a pass through. Well, I guess that depends on what your definition of "pass through" is, basically the broadhead went all the way through, but the arrow didn't. It kind of stuck half way through her like a "deer kabob". The arrow didn't fall out for a long time either. It was a perfect shot too, and the blood trail was passible, but not what I expected.

For my set up, Muzzy 4 blade broadheads perform better. I've been thinking of trying the Slick Tricks though.

Anyway, if these are broadheads left over from last year, did you do the "rubber band" sharpness test? Sometimes they get dull over time from going in and out of your quiver, or how you store them. Deer are tough critters, and even with a perfectly good set up you wont always get a pass through.
