RE: Has anyone actually used this head?
 

I honestly don't know why heads like this even exist. By combining a large fixed blade with a large mechanical in one head,the two styles of heads are meerly negating the benefits of using either one by itself.

A mechanical was invented because of bad arrow flight from large fixed blade heads at high speed. But then you add a large fixed blade head and put wings on the front on a looooooooong furrel so any inconsistancies in the furrel are only magnafied by its length?

Generally speaking a fixed blade head will out penetrate a mechanical but they add huge mechanical behind it to usu up KE and momentum deploying blades?

I don't get it.

i think i'd use one on turkeys, but thats about it.

my buddy shot a doe with that head a few years ago. He shoots 60lbs with a 29" XX78 2216. Penetration was horrible. Maybe 4" of penetration behind the shoulder. I had to circle around and finish her off at 40 yards with a Muzzy. His broadhead was trashed. He went back to shooting thunderheads and no problems since...

i posted about that head last year...i didnt want to use it...just curious if anyone else did. think the cut was like 2 3/4" or something pretty hugh. i dont see expandable blades that long making it through a deer.

think a couple people used them or knew people that did and some swore by them...definently not my cup of tea...though a 3" cut would be pretty nice to have....but then your looking at penetration problems....till about 5 years from now when our bows are doin 400+ fps;)

RD,

Why are you giving away our secret? Now, everybody is going to want to use these heads after we win this year.
