2012 broadhead selections

Did you guys ever have problems bending ferals on the ST heads? I shot em a few yrs ago but had problems bending ferals anytime I would shoot thru something and hit anything hard. My target was junk. When it came time to buy more broaheads I ended up trying some thing different. They did fine on the deer I shot with them. Nothing spectacular for me tho as far as carnage. But they killed

I've bent the tip after hitting a rock, but nothing a file couldn't fix. But never the ferel itself? If I'm not mistaken the ferals are 4130 CroMolly Steel which is slightly stronger than titanium.

And the first time that costs someone a trophy, I'm gonna laugh my ass off!!! :smiley_clap: There is such a thing as being TOO confident and it has bit a lot of people in the ass over the course of time. Anything mechanical, can and will fail given enough time, so don't fool yourself in to thinking you are above that. I hate to see you lose the deer of a lifetime because you were TOO big for your britches at the time. I trust my broadheads and I'm not about to pull a stunt like that. There are no absolutes in this sport...

Amen!!
 
I don't think ST are the greatest either. My experience is limited to seeing my son shoot a doe with three of them. First one into the spine, one an air ball, and the other finished the job. All heads had broken blades and bent ferrules. I wasn't impressed, but the deer did die.

Jeez, why all the hostility? The question was "what broadhead do you shoot"? not, "Why arent you shooting the same broad head i do?"

Also being the fanatics they are, you think i drurys had issues with Rages not "working" they would still shoot them??? Its not like they couldnt shoot any head they wanted to...

I'm pretty sure RAGE is a sponser of the show, I think they are contractually obligated to use them.

I dont shoot rage because I'm poor and cant afford them.
If I want to try a slick trick, I'm sure redcloud will let me borrow one to try.
I shoot magnus because thats what ted nugent told me to shoot. Crap! thats right! he is now telling me to shoot steelforce!
I wonder what Tiffany wants me to shoot? Shes purtty.
 
Very Good Point Dante. I shoot Rage 2 and 3 Blade, Spitfires and Buckbusters. I like the large holes you get from a mechanical. Diane and ZJ shoot fixed blades of various kinds since they shoot through the screen on the blinds. Good scouting, Open shot, Good shot placement......Dead Deer.

Yep.... Put it into perspective....
 
Wait until I shoot this fugger. You all will want to follow and use one because of the holes this sucker will leave.

That's what happens when people buy in to advertising, they can charge 2x what it's worth and make a killing.. Look at Mathews. lmao
