The NAP shockwave isn't bad & is better than the spitfires if you ask me. I do like other heads much better than the shockwave. I really like the golden key reapers & demons as well as the rocket steelheads, hammerheads, and wolverine 3p. I have been using the golden key reaper this year with great success and am very happy with their performance.
Dicks Sporting goods did have the golden key reapers on sale for 12.99 for 3 which is a great deal on a great mechanical.

I'll have to agree with Moonge on this one. The GK mechs are awesome. Top quality mechs made by Rocket. I'm using both the Demon and Reapers for whitetai and turkey.

The Shockwaves are one of my favorite mechanical heads. Sharp, strong, accurate, and they open fast. If you have enough KE and and a well tuned bow they will work well for you.

Shockwaves have worked great for me so far. five deer with no losses. 80 yard run was the max. All dropped in there tracks. seemed to be quite effective in my oppinion. All hit vitals, Probably more effective than broadhead, is broadhead placement.

I shoot Rocket Aerohead Miniblasters, and absolutely love them! They've got an almost fail-proof design, and the ferrules and tips are very strong. The blades, as 5 shot has reported earlier during his testings (run a search on 5 shot's reviews), could stand to be a bit sharper out of the box, but they've performed marvelously none-the-less.
