Sure.

Rob, so the Rage open as soon as it hits the hide??

The blades are fully deployed before then enter the hide.

how??

Yes, as mobow said, the Rage and Snypers are fully deployed before entering the hide, thus they can usually leave a bigger entrance hole than exit, but both are usually bigger than any fixed blade heads I've shot.

When the first blade "tip" enters....the next thing is the .....(how do I say this?).....blade deployment mechanism. As soon as this touches ANYTHING.....it deploys the blades. So....when the Rage heads (as well as the Snypers) deploy before they enter the hide. I've never had one NOT deploy before entry. Actually....never heard of one not deploying.

Well, if you look at one closed, you see the where the blades are in the front, by the tip? That straight line across...Wish I had a pic, but I don't....anyway.....when those hit hide, the blades push back, toward the fletching and away from the deer, and slide out to open. When they get to the deer, they're fully deployed.

This is the reason I don't think Rage burn up as much KE when they enter a deer. In that respect, they are very similar to a fixed blade head.

Here's a question for you Rage owners. One concept I hear, is that on a quatering away shot, the mechanicals may not enter if one of the blades contacts the hide b4 the others; causing the arrow to flip. True or not true. I've considered switching this yr. I have used Muzzys, but I'm going out west this yr, & I want to start practicing @ longer distances 50+yds w/a broadhead. I hear that the Muzzys don't fly so well @ long ranges. What do you all think?

W/ a jacknife style broadhead, over the top, yes...that's possible. I just don't think it is w/ a Rage. With them being fully deployed before they enter the hide......A jacknife style is still opening once it enters the body cavity.

The Rage blades slide rearward, AWAY from the deer, leaving just the ferrule and point to do the cutting. There's nothing to deflect.

Let's take a 3 blade jacknife style. If the blade on the left side makes contact, it immediately begins to open and start cutting. That side of the blade slows down, allowing the opposite side to slam around, tip over. Picture a vehicle w/ tracks....Slow one track down, what's it do? Turns that direction.

Can't happen w/a Rage.

Heres a video of the 2 blade rage opening on impact. (Its the one on the left) http://www.ragebroadheads.com/rageVideo.html

Heres my question. Why would someone want to use the 3 blade when they can buy a 2 blade that has a bigger cutting diameter? Mobow, what made you decide?
