I'm new to bow hunting but I got my first deer with these BH this year. The man at the pro shop suggested them. I like them. Leaves a heck of a blood trail I would think. The deer I shot dropped where it stood but it looked like someone turned a faucet with all of the blood shooting out. Like I said that was my 1st deer with it but it seem to work great.

I have shot many diff kinds of broadheads and I have to say... The shwacker is the best I have shot! Massive blood trails, great flight, and very accurate! Oh and I have never had one open in flight... ever...

Yeah they sound like good I don't use them but I thought about switching to them

This is the only expandable that has interested me in awhile and i havent tried them yet, I have tried rage 2-blade with horrible results, good shots but horrible results. I have tried rocky mountain snypers and liked them alot but they quit making them. After these good opinions i might have to try the schwackers next season.

I use to shoot Rage and I switched to Swackers this year and let me tell you that Swacker is head and shoulders better and will be my broadhead of choice from now on.

Thanks everyone I'm going after a 180-190 inch typical monster where I hunt I have a bushnell trail cam but its junk the pictures are always blurry so the only proof I will have is if I harvest him

I dont like using broadheads that use rubber bands but thats just me. The 2.25" inch cutting diameter might be a good choice for turkey hunting tho. I dont think I would use something that big for deer... I just have a hard time seeing it getting good penetration if you made a poor shot such as a shoulder shot. That thing will have to eat twice as much shoulder blade as most broadheads. The deer I saw shot with them on tv died quickly tho. Whatever you use make sure it's sharp and double lung them and they wont go far.

I agree with you on penatration with a rage but I promise you the swacker gets unbeliveable penatration and you want be disappointed
