Broadhead entry/exit hole pics
 

Just had a question for you folks and it may seem a little morbid but here we go. Been having a hard time finding pictures of broadhead entry/exit holes and was wondering if anybody has a good place to view these types of pictures. I know this question might sound a little off but for me it is really just a good way to judge the effectiveness of certain broadheads that I would like to try but I am afraid of spending money on goods that may not work (it's one of the ways or bits of information that help anyways). Sorry if this is in the wrong place as well but I figure since it applies to many types of game putting it in one section would not work. Thanks in advance.

http://www.ragebroadheads.com/ Try this site. Never used them but i am thinkingabout switching

Shot placement has more to do with thedamage than the broadhead itself. Any quality head will work.

I don't hve any pics on hand anymore, but the Slick Tricks and Crimson Talon's do some aweful damage. I believe there may be some CT pics on www.spintite.com website.

Thank you all for your responses and links. Also thanks to all the folks who have posted their pics on this message board and the various others if they are members. I was thinking of possibly trying to collect these and putting them up on a website (having to find them all, pics of broadhead involved and contacting pic authors for permission would take awhile but worth it i think). If I ever get that up and going I'll let you all know. Plan on trying out a dandy in three weeks, post them up when i get them. Happy hunting all.

My brother used the Rage 2blade on a 10pt last season. What a hole, It looked like it had been shot with an 30-06. I was very impressed. I have several friends that have killed deer with them and swear by them. I have only had the opportunity to use them on a bobcat that I was unable to find, but after seeing my brother's deer I will not shoot anything but Rage 2Blade.

I use a Muzzy four blade broadhead and it brought down my big buck with in 200 yds. Just remember that most of the time it's going to be about shot placement, you just need a broadhead that's strong enough to cut through the ribs on the way in.

like everyone else has said... shot placement and angle

Okay, here we go. Because this may not be suitable for all folks I am not posting a pic directly but rather a link to my photobucket account

Now that was a slightly angling away broadside shot, pass through with a Rocket Aerohead Buckblaster broadhead. I had to dig the arrow out of the ground, it buried it up to the nock. I had nobody to hold the leg in it's regular position for the picture, and if I did the hole is approximately 4" diameter, which is alot bigger than I expected as well. I will post more throughout the year.

WOW! How far did it run after the shot? I had used Rocket Aerohead Hammerheadsfor10yearsuntil last year I switched to a fixed blade Sabre Titanium. I have several friends who use Rockets, they swear by them. That is a massive hole. Great shot placement too. Good job.

I say 25 to 30 yards. It's so thick in the woods right now I lost sight of it after about 20 but I could see the tree it ran into wobble a little bit after it went down. I had no problems with the blood trail as I think I said before, it was almost like somebody was walking and spilling paint from a can. Yeah I think Rocket makes good heads, i'm actually quite partial to quite a few of them, the ol' buckblaster is simply my favorite though. Only thing about them is you can only use them once (you can get replacement blades etc but overall a one shot deal) but personally I wouldn't use a head more than once in a row anyways. And as you pointed out, the placement was pretty much perfect, all that practicing paid off;). I plan on posting more throughout the season, and I will post pics of other broadheads used by my friends as well. Happy hunting all and shoot straight!

Rage two blade. He ran approximately 50 yards and died in less than 45 seconds.

RE: Broadhead entry/exit hole pics
 

Your arrow went 2+ feet into the ground!?!?!

RE: Broadhead entry/exit hole pics
 

Yup, believe it or not it was buried. I think the fact that the ground was saturated with rain for the day before and morning of helped though, the arrow was buried in mud not dirt. Maybe that might help a little lol :D
