My stance is this, instead of someone waiting for the right oppurtunity will they just take what they have right than and there regardless ofthe percentages.
That's about like saying that the same guys buy faster/flatter shooting bows and now will take longer shots. I don't think the broadhead is the determining factor of the shot selection that most hunters choose to take. If it is, it's piss poor way of thinking!

It is not the determaining factor but I beleive it may have a role. Would you ever take a full frontal shot? Would you ever take an extreme quartering away or to shot? Would you ever take an ass shot? What I am saying is guys MIGHT take these types of shots. For the most part, and we know the type, they would take this shot regardless. I am an ethical hunter but not the type that beleives I am the most ethical hunter out there and waves in everyones face. I just think someone may take a bad shot knowing it is a bad shot just because of the broadhead and what it can do!

I equate the rage broadhead to a titlelist pro v when those came out in the golf world.....everyone buys them thinking it will make them a better golfer much like WHAT the rage may do for the hunting community.
I have to admit I know a guy like this. He buys things based on advertising thinking it will make HIM something he's not. I don't understand people like this. Like Rob and someone else said though it isn't the broadhead that makes the decision to release that arrow. By the way the guy I'm talking about has NEVER fired a broadhead from his bow. His reasoning is that the advertising says it "flies like a fieldpoint". He wonders why I never want to go out hunting with him.

I have not changed a bit in my shot selection since switching to Rages. They have a nice wide cut and create axe wound like entries, but you still have to put it in the boiler room.
Ditto.....hey, huntingbry, stop answering for me. ;)

I shoot the rage head and literally NEVER think about the BH on the tip of my arrows. I think about where I want my arrow to go.....and that's it. What BH is on the end (and what it might do) never crosses my mind. I see pin....I know arrow is going where pin is.

I guess "some" could give the same analogy with compound vs. trad. equip. . Could they not???;)
