RE: steelforce broadheads
Sharpest heads out of the package I have ever seen. Flight is excellent and the are pretty durable as well. They are very good heads to say the least.

RE: steelforce broadheads
In my tests I have found them (100grain sabertooth) to be suprizingly durable. They don't penetrate bone that well, but cut hide better than any other head. The bone penetration is probably NOT a big concern...just don't hit any real big bones.
Also, they have a VERY sharp angle to the blades (If you worry about deflection) so they would be VERY good for sharp angle shots. Such as a deer quartering away, you shoot, and it turns away even more, this blade should follow it's path better than most.

RE: steelforce broadheads
I like 'em, but I dont. They are some of the sharpest broadheads ive ever seen. But, ive had durablitly problems. They seem to just kinda fall apart if u hit something sturdy. They do have great penetration. Ive also noticed they whistle really loud in flight. Ive also had problems about being sighted in one day and the next them shooting really low, and its not the tuning cause my muzzys dont do it, and its not me either, they just shoot low. Now, granted, these are the 4 blade 100 grain heads, there lockdowns, which could cause the durability problem. After using them for a while i came to thinkin that if im gunna use a cut to tip broadhead style, id use a Zwickey or soemthin along those lines. There a great head, im just a little leary.

RE: steelforce broadheads
I have shot the steelforce 100gn 4 blade through 3/4" compression molded woodflour/resin. (Basically the same thing as a thick Bemis/Kohler/Chuch/Mayfair toilet seat cover)...ZERO damage!!!
I shot them into sections of this stuff thick enough to stop them after 1 3/4" from 290fps again ZERO damage! Even the bleeder blades survived!
That said...the Muzzys DO penetrate all the way through...and a couple of inches into a "block" after that.
