that's why EVERYONE wants to shoot the Rage
Lol, not everyone Preacher!;) Don't get me wrong though, I love big holes In an animal. I shoot a 3 blade COC broad head for the same reason you shoot a Rage.
Not me either, I shoot the Snyper. The original! :D

I don't admit it. [:-] I've used rage broadheads the last two years and i am not impressed.

yes, they make a huge entrance hole but it does you no good when the deer is hit high and there's no exit hole. I much prefer a broadhead that will blast through the bone (and come out the other side).

It happened to me last night. i hit a doe high in the shoulder with muzzy 2 blade. not a good shot, but my penetration was absolutely, flat out terrible. I've had muzzy's blow through shoulders at 170 fps, now i shoot 270 fps and I can't? When that deer was running away I thought the arrow was going to fall out, that's how little of it penetrated. i'm going back to muzzy.

I had a hard time recovering 2 of the 3 deer i've shot with rage.
I think I'd just spend more spare time practicing my shooting.;) Blaming the BH (BH choice is unimportant for this exercise) is a cop out.

Make the shot a good one and fear not ;).

For me it's not the actual kill, it's that few seconds of rush that I can't get enough of. If I could get it any other way....... I hunted northern MI and waded through waste deep snow to get to stand, sat there with ice sicles hanging from my mustache, shaking sooo hard that I thought I was having a convulsion, knowing darn well that I was going into hypothermia and then a buck walks out .... nothing else matters, it's not cold anymore, I'm not shaking, it's just me and the deer.
I had a guy, whom I was working for, offer me a beer, I declined because I don't drink. He questioned me about it, asked if I smoked pot?, nope. Cocaine? nope. He asked "what do you do to get high????" I hunt and I can't get any higher than that, no drug can touch it.
During high school, I dated a girl for 4 years and every year she'd get mad when season opened cause she wouldn't get to see me. Finally I told her, " I can see you anytime I want, but I can only hunt a few months out of the year and only when it's light. So I will see you when it's dark."

Tony,

You can play the Cabela's Dangerous Hunts video game. :D

Wayne .... I beat that cheezy game .... do they have one for the PS3??:D
They sure do! I just got it last week. (actually my wife bought it for me) I don't like killing the animals with my weapons, I would rather fight them hand to hand....

My biggest thrill is the anticipation. You heard so leaves rustle, was that a deer or squirrel? Sounds to big to be a squirrel, not moving quick enough either. What is it. Heart starts pounding and you swear that if it beats any harder, whatever it is, they're going to hear it. Thats what I love about hunting.
