    I shoot 3 blade 100 grain Muzzy, the MX-3. Shot the original 100 grain 3 blade for years and will continue to shoot them. I have a buddy that swears by the 100 grain Montec by G5.

    I killed my first few deer with various Muzzy's...and was always a skeptic of mechanicals....HOWEVER, after reading a lot of discussion about the Rage 2-Blade I gave them a try and am now a true believer in them and thats whats going to be in my quiver this year, along with a SteelForce Phat Head and a Slick Trick.

    Anybody else had problems with the slick trick doing weird stuff at long ranges? I shot them last year - dead on at 20-25 yards, but completely unpredictable at 30 plus yards. I switched to the rage 2 blades, which seem to fly great any any distance?????

    Any SHARP fixed blade that spins true. I like Magnus Stingers - 100% replacement gurantee, no questions asked.

    3 blade muzzys have kilt lots & lots of critters over the years.

    If your bow is tuned well and the heads spin true, why not shoot fixed blade?

    i'm also on the rage 2-blade train this year. DOnt know how i will like them but everyone else seems to love them or are willing to give them a try. Ive been practicing with the practice head that comes along in the package and i'm deadly all the way out to 40yds
    No discipline seems pleasant at the time, but painful. Later on, however, it produces a harvest of righteousness and peace for those who have been trained by it.

    I second the Snuffers. I like them better than the Montec for a single piece fixed blade. I also shoot the traditional three-blade Muzzy. I shot Rocket Steelhead expandables with good success before I figured out how to tune my bow.

    That is a tuning issue, not a broadhead issue. Mechanicals will fly better at longer ranges out of marginally tuned bows. No knocking you, just telling you it wasn't the slick tricks.

    I tried the rages last year and killed a doe and 9 pt. with them but on the 9pt did not get a pass through, the broadhead imbeded in a rib. They did a good job but I am going back to the rocket sidewinders this year. I have used them forever and never had a problem and have a bunch of them. I will say this i have never had a broken rocket broadhead but i broke both the rages so bad that i could not replace the blades.

    2nd that Glenn..........thats mostly why people are switching to expandables.......easier to tune and less headache.......but a bow that is tuned correctly should shoot all BH'S just fine.......might need to tune arra's but thats it........

    Give me enough feathers and a stiff enough shaft and I'll get an axe head to fly true to 50 yards.
