Is anyone on here using Steelforce broadheads ? To those that have please give me your results on deer...... The y have a small diameter so I am wondering. I know they shoot great (out of my well tuned bow) they go through my targets and into the plywood 3' behind it... so I have accuracy, and penetration...but now Im wonderin what they do on game.....
Iam asking becuase Ill be in Indiana, and Illinois next week with them screwed on my arrows......I chose them with Shockwaves and Muzzy's close behind.....
Thanks guys

I used them last year and as you said they were very accurate. I took a nice 7 point buck with it and the shot was a complete pass through. The buck was only about 10 yards out and I was pretty high up the tree so the exit hole was low. The deer went a couple of hundred yards before dying (a beagle was chasing it after I shot it and I only got one lung). I didn't have a great blood trail but that was because of the low exit wound. The broadhead definitely did it's job and it flies extremely well.
Hope this helps.

I've seen one stuck in a concrete block last nite at the archery range. The bh didnt fail. After all that, and taking into consideration they fly well....heck ya I'd use them LOL!

I have used them for practice and they held up very well, hitting points and such that might have been stuck inside the target. They fly very well, also. I did kill a small buck this past week, unfortunately hit him high as it grazed off an unseen branch, but dropped him in his tracks with a spine shot. The arrow did not pass through (although I am not sure it should), but did penetrate close to the far side. A quick finishing shot put the buck away very quickly, again didn't pass through because of how the deer was laying, but good penetration and. The initial shot broke off in the animal, I will examine the broadhead when I get it back from the butcher to see if held together.

I have been using them for about three years now. In PA and NJ. They seem to always pass through. I have not had a deer go more than 30yds. after the hit. Until they stop doing that, I'm stuck on them! I used Thunderheads before and it was hard to get me to change from them. I'm glad I did. They hold up pretty good, but I seem to buy more when the season comes around. Just so I know the are sharp.

I have not shot any animals with them, but they are a very good broadhead. I have tested two differnt models and they are growing on me. I think they will preform very well for you.
