I was playing with them lastnight and it was tough to get them lined up right. Had a feeling they might not open all the time.

i use 2 blade one less blade to worrie about so i couldent tell you about the 3 blade
I like that answer. That's exactly why I use a fixed balde head. No blades to worry about. ;)

AS to the original question, the two blade is definetly the stronger head of the two and would be my choice.

i use the 3 blade and was very impressed.creates a massive entry hole. never shot a deer with them that ran more than 20 yds. ive never had any problems with them butyes they do open quiteeasy ifthe blades get hitbut not "by themselves" just put the rubber band on their right and youl have no problems with them. hands down the best broadhead i have ever shot. flies just like fieldtips and practice heads fly same.

I decided to stick with these for this season. If I have any problem then I will consider going with the 2 blade. Can't wait to let them fly at that first deer! Not to much longer!

Just made the switch... So far I'm happy with the flight of the practic head... I got the 2 blade type... Seems like they are the way to go!!!

2 questions:


1. I'm only shooting 55lbs and currently use a cut on contact blade (Magnus Stinger). Is this possibly too slow for an expandable?

2. I shoot mostly from a groundblind with shoot through mesh. Will the rage open up going through the mesh? I have heard some will and others will not.

I usually don't hunt from a blind but I have been wondering the same thing. I am planning on hunting from my blind a little more this year cause I want to get my daughter out in the woods with me.

Unless you've got some dental floss tied around them in the center, yes. They will most definetly open going through the mesh. I'm honestly not sure I would trust them even w/ the floss....
