RA,they were not bent bad just didnt spin true.I put the tip in a vice and very carefully pushed to the side.They spinned a lot better and flew just like new.You are right about weakening them I never thought of that.Maybe I will use it for cats,ha ha.

RE: OK...Who is using Rocky Mountain Snypers??
This is the first year for me to use the Snypers and have only taken one shot to date, but then I have one kill as well. It was a doe at 15 yds, the arrow went in high and took out the heart and stopped against a rib. Because the shot was high and no exit, there was absolutly no blood trail. She went about 80 yds and stopped against a tree. My bow is an old PSE maxxed at 57# pull. They seem to be good, but I will need to get some more shots before I can make a good judgement on them, they do fly true though and that is a definate plus.
The best of luck in all your hunting endeavors!!!

I have now let 6 of them fly.
1) Doe 35 yards, hit low, pass through, single lung, went 100 yards.
2) Button 20 yards, hit a little far back, single lung, went 100 yards.
3) Coyote 5 yards(on ground), passed through both front shoulders, went 150 yards (rolled down a big hill)
4) Doe 18 yards, double lung pass through, went 50 yards.
5) 8 point 4 yards, hit a little forward, single lung, main artery to heart, broken shoulder, pass through, went 100 yards. (Two minutes after #4)
6) Doe 6 yards, double lung pass through, went 40 yards.
All 6 have had the large entrance wound that you can see in the pic below. Only the last three are from this year. I have to thank 5 shot for the field test on these before last season. I will continue to use them in my Q2 at 70 lbs.

I got a 400 pound Black Bear this year with Snyper; I used a Mathews Ultra2 with 67Ke; the arrow hit bouth lungs but a blade broke in the exit hole; the bear ran only 60 yards.
I also shoot a desert pig (60pounds) last month with the same setup and didn't got a pass trough, one blade broke and the tip bleand 90 degress.
I used to be a Mech fan but I'm thinking of trying muzzy for a change.
