Rocket sidewinders Exit wound!
#1
This is the exit hole from my rocket sidewinder. 30 yard perfect broadside shot...he ran a 50 yard sprint and was dead.....have had mixed results with this head but liked the hole it left here!

I have taken a couple of deer with the sidewinder. The broadheads looked terrible afterward but the holes were impressive. I have taken quite a few deer with the Hammerhead 3L. Ironically there was less blade breakageon the head although the blades were still all bent up, but the holes were massive.Results were noticeably much more positive with the2" cut versus the 1 1/2.Not everyone has enough "juice" to shoot the two inch cut but they do a number on deer.

Definitely an impressive picture. I am sort of fixed on the Steelheads but have used the Sidewinders in the past. A reliable head with a proper setup.

I use the Rocket Sidewinders exclusively, and my father uses the Rocket Hammerheads exclusively...we find that if we do our job (get the arrow where it is supposed to be) then the heads do their job quite nicely.
Contrary to a prior post, we change blades probably 3-4 times per broadhead before we start over with new ones...the only thing I dont like is that they dont sell replacement tips (bone splitter screw in tips)

My brother, father and I use these broadheads and have yet to lose a deer. The broadheads do a great job. They do get beat up pretty good but they fly great out of my Hoyt VTec. Here are a couple photos from the doe that I shot earlier this year. Some impressive pics of the entrance and exit wound.
