RE: Need rear deployment meh. BH without rubber band
ORIGINAL: Hoytail Hunter well now that I've established for myself that rubber bands and o-rings don't matter anymore, are there any other rear deploy recommendations? Weak flimsy blades need not apply. |

Why don't you just shoot a Slick Trick and then you get mechanical quality flight and cutting abilityandwon't have to worry about deploying blades, rubber bands, o-rings, weak or flimbsy blades, or any of the other draw backs to mechanicals. ;)
![]() In all seriousness, if you are really hung up on shooting a rear deploying broadheadI would look at the Trophy Ridge undertaker or smoke broadheads. |

Kerry, thanks for the suggestions.
Steve, those snuffers of yours aren't "pretty". I like pretty. I like fly like field point reliability too. Jeff, yes I have OCD. You should've seen howbent out of shape mentallyI got last year when my bow came in and there was a small imperfection in the camo on the riser. Dan, I was very impressed with the Grim Reapers too but that 60 degrees you're talking about is the MAX angle that the BH will perform. A piece of plywood is flat, a deer is not. It has curves that could make the hit of the angle be higher than 60 degrees on a deer that's already 60 degrees quartered. Trying to take a heart shot on a hard quartered deer is even moreso out of the question. The physics of that is just too risky in MY opinion. I don't get to hunt much so I want odds in my favor. Andif you're thinking it... that I shouldn't shoot a mechanical if I want the odds in my favor, I've considered that and the odds weigh out more in my favor by shooting them. See thread about to be posted. |

The latest Bowhunter magazine has a run down on most of the popular mech broadheads. It compares rear and front openers. He discusses rubber bands.
