I've tried them all...at least most and I am really impressed with the Rocky Mtn Gator XPs. Fly as well as your field points and a 2" cutting diameter. I'm using them this year. Great head. 5 Shot rated them very high on www.broadheadtests.com.

Do you know how much KE your setup is produceing?

All in all the NAP shockwave is a tried and true mechanical.
they are sharp out of the package and are trouble free.

In the last 2 years I have been fortunate enough to take 2 deer. Both at around 20yds. with Snyper heads .On the second a doe around 100lbs. the arrow went through several ribs and on exit severed the bone in the opposite side leg. Longest recovery was 60 yds the other about 50. Great blood trail. I tuned my bow with field points and then put on the snypers and the impact point is identical. Once while taking a few practice shots I had a bad release and the arrow struck the metal tubing around the target. The head went through the tube and except for one of the cam blades breaking it held together. It seems to be a very strong and accurate head.
