I've got mixed feelings on them. Got my first bow kill on one opening weekend, but we've lost 3 does on them as well so far this year. Two of which were good hits. had good trails, but like diamond k said, didnt get a pass through, the deer stoped and laid down and the trail stopped. I have seen a shot split a 6" hole in a does chest. I think it kinda depends on good shot placement which could be said about any broadhead. I do know that the suck for turkeys. I've ruined a ton of blades so far this year shooting at turkeys. I do have 3 in the freezer, but turkey are hard to kill with them. Had to switch to muzzys.

Great heads if used with the right KE and Momentum and the shot is good. Still people want to blame the loss of their animals on the BH when if the animal is not found there is no basis on what happened. If you do not find the animal how do you know what or where the BH hit or what it did? More than likely, bad shot placement and not the BH. I learned a long time ago that if the deer is heart shot or double lunged, you should find it quickly. If I loose an animal, it is 99% probably my fault for a poor shot. They will work and will cut some huge holes, but like i said, they need to be used with equipment that will have the KE and Momentum for them to work like they should.

Or do I have to re-sight my bow for my warheads
Expandables are your best bet, with a simple tune that you can do yourself at the range, you can make any STRAIGHT BH fly dead on with FPs.

I wouldnt give you a nickle for all the Aluminum ones. The Ti's on the other hand are the ****! I proved that they can destroy a shoulder bone and they will hold together and be reusable. This from a former Rage Hater. Im now packin 10 Ti's. and before somebody starts crying about the price. Its a small price compared to the bow, leases, corn etc.

i'd buy a lot of em
I'm a rage fan . . . . . they won't hold up to bone like a slick trick but a ST isn't going to put a hole in them like a rage. I've seen very few deer get hit in the body with a rage and simply run off.
definitely haven't seen any deer hit in the 12 ring with a lung laying on the ground make it with any broadhead I've ever heard of. I'm not thinking that's a broadhead issue . . . .
