Goldtip Gladiator Broadhead?
 

Has any one tried these broadheads?

I tested them a couple of years ago. I found them to be durable, sharp, and well made. They shoot more like a fixed blade head than a mechanical but they still shoot well. If you have at least 60 ft/lbs of KE with your setup they should work great on deer size game.

I have shot them and did not like them as much as other mechanical heads you can buy. They do the job, but just did not like their design.

if you can tune ' em they' ll fly as good or better than a fixed blade broadhead. i can tell you they kill deer and black bear pretty good with an awsome bloodtrail.

I harvested a doe (~50#) with one tonight. Shot-14 yards. Deer ran down hill to the creek. Distance via LRF where she lay-38 yards.

but.....I found my arrow sticking in the dirt. Went to admire the broadhead and it was not there. The broadhead broke off within the insert. My Lock-nock also broke off. As I was re-tracing my deers footsteps, I found the body of my broadhead about 4 yards from where she lay. Shot it as a 4 blade, came out as a 2 blade.

I am no physicist, but I' m confused how this could happen. Not complaining though--the deer ran 24 yards. :)
