RAD Rival 125. I like short blood trails  ;)
How were the blood trails?  Did you use the LPS or HPV?  I ordered some LPS to check them out.

I use the LPS blade. Both bulls shot with them either died or laid down within sight. The blood trails were impressive even in the short amount of time.

125 grain Magnus Snuffer SS for me. Killed a elk last year with a Magnus Black Hornet but will be going back to the Snuffer this year.

Okay I got the RAD rival 125s in and got to shoot them. They have excellent flight but boy do the seem a bit on the small side.  Any pictures of blood trails, entrance or exit holes out there?

This is the only picture I took last year. The other two died within sight.

What's your go to broadhead?

Thanks.  I know size wise they aren't much different than the shuttle t (I have had good success with) and given how well they shoot the elk should expire quickly when you hit them in the right spot.  At 20 and 30 they are right with my field points.  That is about all the distance I can shoot at home.

There are a lot solid Broadheads on the market, with that said I have had great luck with the RAD Tri-Con 125 for the last two years.  This year I purchased a pack of the Rival 125 and so far they are flying great out to 60 for me. ( I haven't shot past 60 with them yet )

I saw these broadheads via Adam Greentree instagram account.  They are calling to me.  I will probably try these next since the price point makes it easier to lose one as compared to the German Kinetics.  Plus they look easier to sharpen and I still get the mass I want.
