Yes, provided you have a tuned bow they fly like field points and leave hatchet wounds on deer. I shot 3 deer with them last year and the pic below shows the smallest of the entrance holes on the three deer I shot......unfortunately I don't have pics of the other 2.

I bought extra o-rings at Lowes, $1.49 for 10 of them. I just shot a doe on Monday with the 2 blade. I have never seen a hole so big on a deer before. She only went 30 yards and dropped. So far so good with these new heads.

I snap those blades over the bottom ring, then give the arrow the old spin test on my fingers. If you want extra insurance, you can buy those little rubber bands for Rocket broadheads and use needle nose pliers to put them over the blades as well.

It amazes me how people will shoot these mech broadheads even after they have given you doubts
I've never put a muzzy broadhead on one of my arrows thinking "I hope these thing do what there suppost too"
My buddy called me up the other day telling me about his doe he shot... Shot was like 15 yards and he siad he hit her right behing the shoulder... He said he gave her 20 minutes and then he went to look for her... He said he found decent blood but when he walked up on her she was still alive... He said he had to take another shot... I shot 3 deer this week and all 3 were done in 10 seconds and the farthest ran 60 yards...
I hot a 5pt yesterday at about 12 yards... I don't know what happened but I shot high... My broadhead clipped the artery that runs under the spine... Deer ran maybe 50 yards and left a pretty easy blood trail... I could of been shooting one of those rage heads and hit the deer so that the blades opend parallel to the spine missing the artery... I think I'll stick with my 4 bladed Muzzy's

RE: Opening in flight
I've shot the muzzy's for 4 years,great BH's. I;m trying the Rage 2-blades,I love how the fly. Ive always had trouble grouping them w/ my FP's. So I'd practice w/ BH's and tear up targets. Now I can practice w/ FP's and then put them on and hunt. If they don't work out for me in the field I still have a few Muzzy's to fall back on!
