Rage or T-Locks?
 
I have both Shuttle T-Locks and Rage 2 blade broadheads. Which is going to provide me more knockdown power this season?

Hit em in the heart or lungs and I don't think it would matter which one you used;)

You won't get much KNOCKDOWN power out of an arrow!!

You want TIP OVER power!:D

If I remember correctly you aren't pulling much weight on your bow. The T-Locks might be a better option considering that. More penetration.

Shuttle T's. Have used them for a couple years now. Last year I spined a buck at 40 yards with a pass thru. Droped like a ton of bricks.

What do you mean "you aren't pulling much weight"? I was at 38 lbs a month or so ago due to the shoulder being messed up and with a lot of icing, stretching, gritting my teeth, soaking my boxers, etc., I got it up to 48 lbs. :D That cannon I have for a right arm is now so massive it scares 3 and 4 year olds!!!:D:D

Thanks JM

I used Rage last year, it did fine even with the low KE I get from my bow.

At 48lbs i would go with a smaller head than the rage. I shot three deer last year with the big 2 blade rages and didn't get one pass thru with my bow set at 70lbs. Those heads are so large that it requires more energy to penetrate deeply. I doubt you would have much problem if you could pinpoint them in between some rib bones.

They both will work well, I want to try both!!

Ya with lighter pounds I may go with the T locks, they look goofy but they really do leave a nice sized hole. The hole they leave is bigger than the dia. of the blades, something to do with the shape and how the skin flexes around the blades when the deer is struck..
But to answer your question I vote for the Rage overall for a larger bloodtrail "knockdown" I guess...

Im with the rest, those T-Locks look to be a pretty stout head too.

I would never suggest the rage to anyone producing less than 60FP's of KE.
