Default Grim Reaper Broadheads

I am going to try out some new broadheads this year because the rage broadheads seemed to get dull quickly last season. Does anyone use grim reaper broadheads? If so what do you think of them?

Thanks
Jed

I've taken one deer with them so far. Honestly I think they were the sole reason I found the deer. I got the 2" WTS, hit a twig and caught the chest very low and back. We recovered the deer some 600yds away the next morning.

Been using grim reapers since 2003. They are absolutely amazing. Try the whitetail specials

This was my first year using the Grim Reaper broadheads. I harvested both a buck and a doe using them. Both deer fell within sight. I am extremely pleased with my results and will have them on my arrows next season.

I put new blades on the rage and had them in my quiver till end of season and was thinking about using them for turkey hunting. I tested them recently with rubberbands and they didnt cut one rubberband. I didnt use them for target practice and I didnt shoot 2 of the 3 during the season. They were all dull by end. So i honestly dont know what happened.

I have used GR's since they came out and LOVE THEM!!!!!!!!! Wouldn't own a Rage if they were free and a lifetime supply!!!!! Too many horror stories both personally seen and heard of. Have taken over 100 animals with them from hogs, bear, mulies, whitetails and an elk with them. All taken with the 100grn 1-3/8ths cut.
I am now planning on using the WTS 100grn 2" cut for turkey this season. I resharpen them after each shot by using a small sharpener while holding the blade open with a leather gloved hand. Critters never know the difference!!!!!! I feel that I sharpen them better than they come from the factory, and they are scarey sharp at that!!!!
