If you really want to try them, either one as long as your using a heavy arrow so you have and keep as much KE as possiable

IMO, I feel that a three blade leaves a better opening for blood to flow and leaves a better trail.

Neither, use the T3's or Grim reapers. Better choice, we have seven people in our camp that bow hunt. We have tried them all. Nobody likes the Rage's now.

Don't mean to rustle any feathers. Just speaking from experience at our camp.

I tried the 2 blades last year for the first time and killed two deer with them. The big buck I shot I did not get a complete pass through but it still put him down in 80 yards or so. My bow shoots just over 300 fps so I was surprised that it didnt go all the way through. This summer I am going on a black bear hunt so I am switching to the 3 blade because I was told by an archery shop owner that the 3 blade give you better penetration than the 2 blade. But man do they leave a gaping hole.

I have used the 2 blade rage ever since they came out. I have shot 6 deer every year with them and haven't lost a deer yet. I would say 3/4 of the shots were pass throughs and all the deer dropped inside of 80 yards.
