Crimson Talon broadheads
#1
Does anybody shoot these broadheads, at first I thought they were a joke. But they have a web site and people are killing big game animals like elk with them. They just look like they would break all to pieses and never have a chance for a pass threw.

I shot the talons for a while. Pretty swet bh's. They do exactly what they claim, spiral wound tract, good entry hole (in a target at least, never shot deer with them). The only complaint I had with them is that the spiral wound makes it a pain to remove arrows from a target, but they did shoot quite consitent for me right out of the package.

I switched to them last year. I have written this before, but they fly great and inflict a massive amount of damage to the animal. Even a "marginal" hit results in a short track job w/ profuse bleeding. I love them and am 100% sold on them..

I liked them at first and they obviously would be a pretty devestating bh. For some strange reason
the first time I shot them I got decent groupings, but after that it was not as consistent and not
grouping with my field tips (2-3" right). I paper tuned my bow, made a slight adjustment and still
couldn't get them shooting how I wanted them. It was really wierd - maybe it had something to do
with all the spinning. My target is ripped to shreds too. [&:]
I get a lot better groups nearly matching my field points with the G5 Strikers so I switched for the
confidence. I would rather feel confident I can hit right where I aim and find the kill zone than worry
about the damage it will do.

I used the 2 blade 100 grain last season and they flew great. The only down part I experienced is the blades easily bent. I don't know if I caught a lot of bone or what, but I never even attempted to re-use the same broadhead twice. One and done with my harvests.
