Rage 2 blades????
 
I am considering a switch to Rage 2-blade tomorrow. I know it is midseason but I can set them up in an hour and am going to go away from the small hole made by the small 85 grain montec. What kind of things do ya'll have to say about the Rage 2 blades???

From what I've seen and heard, they are incredible! But why switch now, have you had problems with the Montec?

I have heard good things about them but would be very leary of switching mid season and then regretting it later when you could hit some serious bone. I would stick with the Montec.

Just wondering whats the big deal about trying to switch mid season. i would go pick them up and spend some time at the range and see how they fly. If they fly good go for it if not and there needs be be a lot of adjustments hold on to them till next season.

I just made the switch from Montecs. I havent had the chance to use them, but I was set up ready to roll and very happy with how they were flying in 30 mintues.

I will be using them this weekend, hopefully be able to come back with a success story. If I don't like them, then my Montecs will be back on.

Just shot a nice doe with the Rage 2 Blade. First time ive used them and was more than impressed. It was a double lung shot and it took out 2 ribs on the way in and one of the way out. She didnt make it 50 yards. I wont use anything else.

Here's a picture of an entry hole of a Rage 2-blade. Let me know if the picture didn't show up. I've never posted a picture and I may have screwed it up.

I switched last weekend from the Montecs to Rage 2 blade, took 30 minutes to confirm set-up. Thebuck I hit with a Montec didn't bleed like it should have, then found out about them being notorious for being a little dull straight out of the box so figured I'd give Rage a try

i just havent been impressed with the blood trails my montec have been leaving, they kill, but sure wouldnt want to lose that big ol boy due to lack of blood, i am not going to switch yet.

Check out these two videos from the guys at Pine Ridge Archery. Two does they shot with Rage 2 blades last week at the Campbell Outdoor Challenge. The holes were big enough to put your fist in, and I have to say I was impressed.

I have seen several harvests this year by guys who have used the rage 2 blade and they do the damage and you wont miss a beat. I have them but have not shot anything. If you miss your mark they still do a great job....when I take down my big boy this year I will forward you some pictures!
