I would have to disagree about two blades not leaving a good blood trail. Most people don't get a good blood trail because they hit the animal too high and/or don't get a passthru. I have had the best blood trails I have seen with large two blade broadheads, a passthru and a carefully placed shot. I see a lot of people aim at the middle of the deer, drop their arm and hit high, than complain about no blood. "It's not the arrow it's the Indian".
I have been having a bad problem with not passing threw, I've shot 4 bucks less than 10 yards and have not had 1 complete pass threw!! And I've shot some 20-30yds and it seems to penetrate good but wont pass threw; I shoot a Bowtech General, Beman ICS Camhunt 500 (9.1 GPI), and I belive my draw length is 27 (my arms have grown another good 1/2in or so but I want to use my arrows i have now up because they will be too short if i extend my draw length, i still have almost a dozen and i still can shoot my bow comfortable), I shot 63lb draw and rage 3 blades. If you guys got and tips to help me start passing threw I would really appreciate it. Thanks

twodogs -
Who started this thread and why? They're having penetration issues - most people do who shoot mechanical and they're baffled at why.
This is why - right here in this thread. If beating a dead horse keeps just one guy from losing a buck of a lifetime to mechanicals? its worth it

Let's all listen to you........the guy that has NEVER shot or used the Rage head. Who would know better than you how they work.
Ranger.... leave you whinning and unknowledgeable posts to something you know. TBD if there is anything.
I've shot 9 P&Y bucks in my life and lost 1 of them and that was to a fixed head (Muzzy). I'm 8 for 8 using rear opening mecahnicals (Snypers and Rage).

There you are again talking up your product, yet not adding anything but YOUR spew, while not really addressing the real problem. Funny for some reason I still have a hard time believing you don't have some $$$ vested interest the way you indisciminantly push these heads.......

You are way off point. I dispute a guy that has never used the head and I'm just stating MY facts about using the head. Which guy would you think has better knowledge of the head. A guy that has taken many does and 8 P&Y bucks with the head (Snypers/Rage) or a guy that has NEVER used the head?

My Spew? I call a guy out that has NEVER used the head who continues to bash (spew) comments about the head and I comment on how well the head has worked for me. I think you have it backwards there Chachi.
