Rage has went over the edge!!!!
 

I was reading then new Petersen Bowhunting Mag last night and it was thier new products issue. They had the new Rage Titanium broadhead and they sale for $84.99 for three. With all of the great broadheads on the market IMO you would have to be crazy to pay $30.00 per head. What are they thinking.

Yep thats pretty crazy, people will still buy them though.

get used to hearing all of the hunting celebrities say "this joker fell to a rage, mechanical, titanium broadhead...they are awesome!" and of course, us sheep will go buy them

That is alot of $$ for 3 broadheads....!

not all of us will run out and buy them i still have 5 dozen 125 grain thunderheads i bought 10 yeas ago and 10 packs of replacement blades wont need to buy any for a while i think especially at those prices

Heck, I think guys are crazy paying for the regular Rages...:)

I'm just glad that EVERYDAY on the forums someones crying about the price of the new Ti-Rages.....

you know what..... DON'T BUY 'EM !!!!

someone post up a link!

i would never pay that much for 3 broadheads thats ridiculous there are plenty of other broadheads out there that will kill a animal just as easily for alot less.

If Rage was convinced that NO ONE would buy them, they wouldn't have made them. So, don't buy them if you don't want to. Not sure why price of things is always such a big issue. Nothing is EVER overpriced to the people that have bought it, so it shouldn't stir you up so bad that someone is willing to pay it.

Not Rage, but I'm gonna pay $90 for 3 heads for my CO elk hunt (probably). With what I have in equipment, I'm surely not gonna let something this insignificant (in the overall picture) stop me from using what I think I need to get the job done.

I'll likely be sportin' silver flames on the business end, in Sept.

If I didn't think they were worth it, I'd just refuse to pay it. If someone else chose to......it's no concern of mine.

Never will I pay that much for heads I hope!!!!

Those silver flames are pretty incredible. I haven't used them on an animal, but played with a friend of mine's. They are incredibly sharp, and the machining on them is unmatched IMO. I think you would be well served with them for elk. Their track record is definitely a lethal one!

Yeah looked at them at the ATA show, felt bad for the rep because i couldn't help my self when he told me the price. (I Think it started with an F) Anyone know what the "advantages" to this "improvement" would be?

Hey if you've got it that way then by all means put it out there and go for it but as I stated "In My Opinion" I can't see a animal being any more dead with them then my $3.50 a peice Muzzy's.

Guarantee that they are flying off the shelf's as we speak, Every ones gotta have them. And your right, it is a shame. But if they can do it and get away with it then what the hell. why not?

What kills me about this is.......

How many bowhunters spend $900 or more every year....on something that depreciates 25% as you fling your first arrow....and nearly 50% inside a year?

If they can sell a few for that price, then more power to them. I think I have a pretty good handle on what the market will bear, what will move, and what will not.

Sure they will sell some but I hope they don't stock pile a ton waiting for the Big run because IMHO it won't happen.

I have silver flames and samurais and, if I had to pick one, I would pick the samurai. Every bit as well made and as sharp but, single bevel/tanto tip which, IMO, is better.

I still have 2 packs of unopened replacement blades for my muzzy 125's,so I will be using them until I run out of new sharp blades,unless I find them on clearance last the last packs I bought for 8 bucks.when I do finally run out of blades I won't be buying any rages or any other mechanical heads,will most likely be tricks or muzzy.

yeap, that crazy. I really don't understand how they'll kill any better that other broadheads. They better come with a won't lose a deer warrenty for that price.:biggrin:

I love rage broadheads.In my opinion they are the best broadhead on the market. But I wont be buying any for $84.

its all about shot placement

That's why you're my buddy, Bruce!....lol

(Thanks for the link. If you like 'em...that's good enough for me)

With left wing feathers you will need the left bevel. Good luck with them.

I would say he won't. This is a forum IL. I am not sure you understand how it works. But we see things of interest and we talk about them. Nobody says we have to buy them or not. But everyone has the right to comment if they want.

I mean what do you want us to do? Just sit here and look at each other??

when i bought my rage 2 blades last year at cabelas they were 31.99 for 3 now they are 41.99. its getting freaking rediculous!!!!

not gunna lie........ im probly gunna have to buy them. they look sweet as hell and i would like to see how they preform compared to the regular rage.

It wasn't too too long ago that there was nothing but a bow,string,wooden arrow with a sharp rock on the end of it!! $90 for three broadheads??????? I thought we (the country) were in a Recession??

My point was.... why must we read someone cry and bitch about the price of the new Ti-Rages everday ?!?

Every single day someone feels the need to bash Rage about something.... it's gets kinda old and is awfully unoriginal.

How about talking about something productive!

Well they sell bows over 900. Why not sell a broadhead over 30?

What a joke. I could not look at myself in the mirror if I bought those heads. I can just hear myself now.."Hey honey I just spent $90 on 3 broadheads....."

There's your problem, Brett.

Why would you tell her????.....lol

Either I tell her on Day 1, or she finds out from our bank statements X days later. :)

I once went on a Bear trip with a Buddy and when we got back home his wife had recarpeted the entire house and bought a couple rooms of new furniture.

Luckily I never had to deal with a woman like that. No he did Not know she was going to do it and they had Not discussed it.:s3:

You have the option not to open the thread.

ANd you have the option of keeping your yankee ass up north!

(hope you're doing well, Rick. Stop back by when you're down here mext)

They can sell them because people will buy them. It's the American way. Just turn your head as you walk by them.

I guess I can see both sides of this, if you spend $700-$800 on a bow, $80 on a rest, $150 on a sight, and $70 on some arrows. Not to mention other accessories alike tree stands, binos, rang finder, exc. Why cheap out on the broad heads? I just don't see why this particular head is bringing that price.

Too much doe!
 

Actually, charging $39.99 for 3 broadheads is ridiculous. Stop buying them and maybe they'll go down......Nah, that'll NEVER happen. It's AMERICA
