Not so Quick there BHFool I just said I'd shootem all day side by side through whatever material you wanted and you could post the pics as you please;)

Things aren't always as they seem:D

annika I'd still use the 03 Tricks over anything currentlyon the market. They are that Good, and Gary's customer service has always been second to none. He guarantees total satisfaction or your money refunded, any reason. That's confidence in a product.

RE: THINKING RAGE
 

This is exactly what you said:

In my eyes you called me a liar, plain and simple, I really don't appreciate that either! Especially coming form Company rep whos Bow I shoot![:'(] I too deal have been dealing with Gary directly for years and he's top notch as is his Customer service! As a matter of a fact I think I give Gary a call Monday and see what he thinks!

RE: THINKING RAGE
 

He's already been notified. I guess because I represent a company I can't have an opinion on broadheads?:eek:Unlike what Jeff accused me off I'm not bought and Paid for.;)As I've said before use what you want, and if you want to runthat test side by side let me know I'll meet you half way and we can both take pics. We can control what mediumwe shoot. Results could be interesting. I'll furnish the Tricks. You furnish the Rages. A dozen should be suffucient to catch most mediums we can shoot through. I'll look forward to it.

I met Fred Bear. I think he is one of the most sincere guys I ever talked to.

RE: THINKING RAGE
 

funny how a guy asking a simple question turned into this.

RE: THINKING RAGE
 

I think for the most part we're shooting deer (not steel drums)and I believe the devastation the Rage has shown to inflict on deer (and turkeys, bear and elk) shows you what you need to know. Remember, a picture is worth a thousand words and the pictures that have been posted on the Rage kills are unmatched and undeniably the most devastating.

The true worth of a broadhead is what it does for the purpose it was built for. The Rage does exactly what it was built for. Inflict tremendous damage with huge holes and quick kills and allows for a larger room for error (not to be used for simply flinging arrows).

RE: THINKING RAGE
 

I'm still trying to find the post where Dan SPECIFICALLY cut down the Rage head...

Not quite sure why everyone is jumping on him, he said he prefers a broadhead with no moving parts as opposed to a mechanical such as a RAGE thathas moving parts andtherefore a chance that those moving parts fail..Never once did I see him sinlge out a RAGE head.

In all honesty I have never seen a group of people so defensive of the product that they shoot as you Rage shooters are. Magnus heads work for me, RAGE heads work for you, we all shoot deer happily ever after.

RE: THINKING RAGE
 

It must be a Minnesota thing!;) Magnus for me as well.

RE: THINKING RAGE
 

Come on in BHF....the water's fine.:eek:

It's a good thing Bowtech has the product they have.;) I'll leave it at that.

RE: THINKING RAGE
 

guys, lets just all get along and leave this thread die

RE: THINKING RAGE
 

Jeff, you could call me Fido or Rover like you were someone else on the last thread I seen you arguing on. I guess it's Ok to call people a Dog?[&:]

Dan

RE: THINKING RAGE
 

Dan I don't represent a company in this forum.....and I don't have to worry about such. I speak my mind and always have.

Whether you know it or not....or even care about it.......YOU DO.

It would appear you don't care. I've asked some people "over there" if you had photos of the owners naked. If not....I can't figure out why it's tolerated.

It doesn't affect me, personally.

RE: THINKING RAGE
 

V2, should be allowed to express his opninion wether he is on staff with Bowtech or not.

RE: THINKING RAGE
 

If it isn't broke why fix it? With four blades don't you have more actual cutting diameter then a 2 blade Rage?

RE: THINKING RAGE
 

Jeff you think I can't have opinions on my personal gear? Where have I bashed Rage? I simply stated my preferences and why, really no specifics at first. You guys more or less jump on me. Maybe if I posted all the PM's you have sent me since day one it would be clear to others what your true motives are. The only thing I ever said to you was that you were pretty inexperienced, no slam, just Truth. I guess I really hurt your feelings and for that I'm Sorry. What you accused me of was Not true. I am not bought and Paid for, never was never will be. You told me you have friends in high places that are like a Bro. Well use them I guess. Honestly you really crack me up. 4 year old expert![8D]

Dan

RE: THINKING RAGE
 

Jeff, brings up my Staff position everytime I disagree with him. I wonder what the Motive is??[&:]

Dan

RE: THINKING RAGE
 

The OP asked for people thoughts not just those that used the rage. Heck, I'd hate to count how many I've killed with a three blade Thunderhead after switching from mini blasters because I had problems with them.

Years of experience does come into the equation wether some like it or not.

RE: THINKING RAGE
 

Post 'em up. It's not like I'm ashamed of them.

"Motives"???? What possible motives could I have when it comes to you? It's pretty simple.....it seems you not only want to express your opinion.....but to belittle others while you're doing so. You did this with Atlasman when he was asking about ordering a product (maybe a bow?????;)).....and it was uncalled for (in several people's opinons). I wondered then why that could be tolerated.....as I do, today.

Don't have a clue as to what you're talking about, here......but that last statement is a PERFECT example of you M.O. .

Funny thing is Dan.....I'll be sharing camp with you in '09. I can't wait!;)

RE: THINKING RAGE
 

Jeff, I'm through always responding to your idiotic inexperiencedjabs at me. I think you have forgot some of your PM's.;)Most I never responded to, but I am Sorry I hurt your feelings. I just call a Spade a Spade.

I willlet others decide.

As far as Atlasman?? O forget it!

Dan

RE: THINKING RAGE
 

Dan....really....how much deer hunting experience does it take to realize when a man's constantly trying to make you and others look foolish (and for what reason???)??? I didn't know that was a prerequisite.

I think there was discussion about the Rage's over on Archery Talk yesterday. I didn't see your comments on that thread. Oh.....forgot.....they took care of that problem.;)

Like I said......can't wait to meet ya.

RE: THINKING RAGE
 

What the???? I can not believe I just read that. I guess that is why he got booted from the sight too huh?

I can only dream where this jab came from.[:-]

RE: THINKING RAGE
 

It was no "jab", LT. It's the truth.

Atlasman is gone because he handled his disgust with someone improperly.

RE: THINKING RAGE
 

Muzzy makes a good blade, as does Rage. No deer will go far with any head if hit correctly!

RE: THINKING RAGE
 

Atlasman is gone? Must of been while I was on my little vacation.

Dan big FOUL bringing PM's into this buddy.

for the 2 of you, I respect you both and its getting ugly in here.[:@]

RE: THINKING RAGE
 

Seems we always get way . I think this thread needs to disapear!

RE: THINKING RAGE
 

Tim you have confused me. Pours self a .

RE: THINKING RAGE
 

Sorry just meant a guy ask a question about broadheads wants some advice and now its a pissing match between 2 of our own! Thats what I meant by Hell maybe I should of said

RE: THINKING RAGE
 

LOL I was doggin the disapear, just all in fun bro. Light on the butter please,:D

RE: THINKING RAGE
 

Ill remember that when I make your toast light butter![8D]

RE: THINKING RAGE
 

Dan you better start working out man. GMMAT keeps mentioning he will be "meeting you in 09;)"
:D:DThis is some funny chit. I hope someone has a video of of you two bumping uglies in "09"

RE: THINKING RAGE
 

All we need is a slick trick vs rage thread:D

To answer the poster question. If you want to try something new, go for it. I tried the rage in 08 and I liked it. I will be using Montec again for deer, but rage for turkeys:D

RE: THINKING RAGE
 

I am going to try the Rage 3 Blade on hogs and see what goes...

RE: THINKING RAGE
 

No, you don't have a bigger cutting diameter with Muzzy.

The cutting diameter of a Rage is 2"
The cutting diameter of Muzzy is 1 1/8"

The four blades give you 2 1/4" cutting surface within the 1 1/8" cutting diameter.

Cutting diameter gives you the size of hole which is important to the actual size of the damage that is inflicted along with better chance for easier blood trails.

RE: THINKING RAGE
 

I used Montecs for the past couple years with good results. I decided to try the Rage 2 blades this year and they performed flawless for me. Next season I'll be shooting them again. I still like the Montecs for their ability to be sharpened and I will still use them no doubt as they are a great broad headbut the Rage heads are fantastic.

Those of you who have a problem with mechanicals because of the moving parts....I sure hope you use a Whisker Biscuit rest and not a drop away, you know.......with those moving parts and all.:eek:

RE: THINKING RAGE
 

:D:D:D:D They better get a stick bow and shoot fingers that way they have no worries!!

RE: THINKING RAGE
 

For real!!

I mean come on.....in one breath a mechanical broad head has evil moving parts and that's "Bad", but it's ok to have a rest with far more moving parts?I have to laugh sometimes........

Rage heads are fine, they do the job they are supposed to and they do it very well. I used Spitfires for years along with thunderheads before switching to the Montec/Rage combo so I'm no stranger to mechanicals. I would go back to Spitfires in a New York second if needed, they served me well with no problems either. I did loose some blades over the years with the Thunderheads but they worked good too.

It just makes me laugh how some components can have evil moving parts and others....how dare you even speak of it!:D:D

RE: THINKING RAGE
 

No beef here guys, just curious what would happen if one of the Rage heads did not open on contact?

LT

RE: THINKING RAGE
 

Probably the same thing that would happen if your drop away rest failed.........or if your peep didn't align, or if your mechanical release failed or if...or if....or if....;)

RE: THINKING RAGE
 

Like I said BigJ, no beef, just studying. I will probably never try the Rage due to price and not seeing the need, but everyone else can. (No problem) I guess anything could fail in the shot situation. I just don't feel the need to add another variable against myself.

LT

RE: THINKING RAGE
 

What would happen if your release broke when you pulled it back, or your fall-away did not fall?
Could it happen, sure, but the indian 99% would be at fault IMO;)

RE: THINKING RAGE
 

Speaking of the broadhead here Germ, not the indian. All indians will fail at some point. I just don't want to add another indian to the picture.
