Default Crimson Talon - Any Good??

Hey,
I've been using Muzzy 3 blade 100 grain broad heads and I got one 8 pointer with it, so I trust them. But I won a prize online and I recieved a pack of Crimson Talon broadheads that are curved. Does any body have any experience with Crimson Talon's and what do you think of them?

The short version. They've been tested on game, tested by 5Shot, and tested by a couple others. They really SUCK.

Did you notice how flashy the packaging is on Crimsons. That should tell you somethin'. Muzzy doesnt need flashy packaging they deliver a solid product that people respect. These guys are trying to catch your eye to get you to buy their new product. If Muzzy worked good last year they'll work good this year.

The one looks like it could almost be illegal in NY.No barbed broad heads.

you guys are giving me second thoughts.....

my pro shop insisted these were the best broadheads out there!! They ordered me a pack, which I have yet to pick up. Maybe I will reconsider...

Which point should I go with? Expandable or broadhead? I just wanna kill a deer with it.

Here is my simplistic view of Crimson Talons. How in the world could a curved blade design do anything but give resistance while cutting? [:'(]
