    Carni Four Review with Video

    First of all, my title of the video "CarniFour Fail" is in reference to the Broadhead and my bad shooting. . This happened yesterday and if you'll turn the sound up, you'll hear what happened. Video has been slowed to .25.

    [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6_b0cnlnyVg&feature=share"]CarniFour Fail - YouTube[/ame]

    As for the Broadhead, it's a Grim Reaper CarniFour shot out of a Halon at 70 lbs, 29.5" draw and 480 gr. total arrow weight. The arrow passed thru completely (not hard to believe with a gut shot) and was found covered in blood with the blades all open. Hog was not recovered despite a long search. Hints at the question of will a Broadhead make up for a bad shot? Not this time!



    Damage to the head leads me to believe it's not fixable or replaceable. GR does not show a replacement kit for this broadhead. But, I could be looking in the wrong place. Anyway, the head hit feeder leg after pass thru, resulting in damage as shown to one of the blades and the ferrule. That blade will no longer lock down for shooting. Does the feeder leg replicate bone? I'll let y'all decide that for yourselves. I'll just show you the damage here and form your own opinion. Flew great, minus shooter error and I doubt the rightness of the shot was the Broadheads fault. Those of y'all shooting where rocks are present...what would happen hitting a rock?

    Anyway...merely an observation of what happened to me.

        I dont see any damage, but then again those crazy looking inserts have me thrown off.

          Hard for me to tell damage as well. keep that one to the side and use it for a coon?

            Damage is hard to see but it's there and enough to make the one blade just flop around and not lock into place. I'd still shoot it at a pig again.

                    If that would have been a Rage you would have lost all your corn and timer when the leg cleaved in half and the feeder fell on the ground.

                            Interesting. Have you been shooting same shafts in the recent videos?
