I am sure most have seen these already, but I will post them again anyhow. The doe pic was the least impressive of the entrance holes on 3 deer I shot last year with the 2 blades. Don't have pics of the others except the heart pic below. That heart is being held together by about 1" of tissue. That buck was quartering at quite a distance and therage 2 blade made an honest 6" entrance hole because of the angle. It took out a couple ribs on the entrance, and sliced through the thin part of the shoulder blade on the other side for a complete passthrough at 43 yards. They are impressive to say the least, I will be using them again as a primary head this year.

I was shooting roughly 71lbs of KE last year with these. The doe was a perfect broadside heart shot that passed through skipping 20+ yards on the ground behind her before stopping, and the other buck I shot last year was another quartering away that went in behind the last rib and passed through just behind the far shoulder at about 17 yards. Penetration even when I hit ribs and shoulder blades was as good as any fixed head I have used, they seem to waste a lot less energy opening than traditional large diameter heads. The Vortex heads I used to shoot back in the day didn't penetrate like these do.

I'm pretty sure that if I pry myself away from the Crimson Cuda's it will be the 3 blade rage. This broadhead seems awesome the concept is also awesome. Definitley not scared of trying it and because it's an expandable I can still feel comfortable about the increased accuracy of expandables.

I have been reading that some of the celebrity bow hunters have been using these out of bows with draw weight in the 50's, and still getting real good results. My experience, which so far doesn't include any live animals, has been that they will open up going through a piece of cardboard. Doesn't take much KE.
