Default Anybody used simmons broadheads?

Saw these today at the local shop. Was wondering if anyone has used them. Looks like a sweet little broadhead.

Thanks,

Depends on which heads your talking about. The entire line of Simmons heads are good, but they perform a lot differntly. Some penetrate and fly better while others make much larger nastier holes.

I've thought about it, but a few things have always stoped me. They aren't real sharp out of the box. And, though I don't really mind sharpening since I do it with almost every broadhead I shoot anyway, the shape doesn't really lend itself to using anything but a carbide sharpener, which I don't really like. I like to use a Lansky, and it might be usable on them - I'd have to try it out to see. Also they are are somewhat on the expensive side. However, I have seen some increadible wound channels from the two blade resulting from that unique shape, which has always intriqued me. Somehow it seems to open the wound more than a two blade with a swept back design. If I could find a pack on sale somewhere, I would probably try them.

I bought those last year but never got the chance to use them in the field. At the range, they fly just slightly left and lower than my other fixed blade broadheads. I also saw some awesome wound channels caused by them so that is why I bought them.

Since my last post above, I have found the RazorShark model to be pretty sharp out of the box. Still not where I like them, but I think I'm going to give them a shot this year after I polish them up a little. Very thick blades. It will be hard to beat the Slick Tricks I used last year though...
