    I tried it twice with good results. Lots of meat in the freezer....

    BUt you need confidence in your setup so I would try it first. The older rages had "floppier" blades. Not sure how the new ones would do...better I presume.

    Just don't do like some idiots and shoot a 500 lb elk in the shoulder with a 2" expandable and think it's gonna zip through like butter.

    You can cut "shooting holes" in your mesh that allow you to better use binoculars, video cameras, and expandables (if you're not confident).

    Here's the two I shot:

              Good tip Chew. I have some Rage, just never tried em. But after seeing the damage, some swine experimentation may be in order

                  original rages were hard enough to keep closed without mesh involved.... but I love the damage they do to the deer I have killed with them. Like a hatchet went through em

                    Done it multiple times no problems. Follow Chews advice and you will be golden.

                              Thanks EBH.

                              The bow is covering up the hole on the doe. Best blood trail I've ever seen.
