I hunted 14 days with three weapons on my multi season permit trying to kill a respectable buck.  Passed over a dozen legal bucks.  I said at the beginning of the season that I was going to kill a good 4pt and if not, a meat doe on the last day of the last season.  Couldn't be happier with the season as a whole.  33 yards, quartering away.  Broke the offside leg bone on the way out.  One of the blades is just slightly bent.  Same arrow and broadhead that zipped through my cow last weekend (new blades of course).

Oh ya it was a thing of beauty!  Could have put new blades in it and shot another.  I would have spin tested it but  I visited the Veterans cemetery on my way home and left my arrow with Aaron.  I bring him a rock from the kill sites from all my hunts, but I felt a bloody arrow shot from his bow was fitting.

Probably could have put that ferrule through another dozen critters.  Those titanium ferrules are pretty tough!  We have broken the chisel off the front slamming them into rock and they still spin true.

Hope the grounds keepers at the cemetery don't freak out finding a bloody arrow there.  Pretty cool :tup:

I think they have grown accustomed to finding strange and random items.  We keep them well stocked in coors light and Copenhagen so they don't complain too much. :chuckle:

I can see them not complaining about Copenhagen, rocks and bloody arrows, but Coors light...that could cause outrage! :puke: :chuckle: :chuckle:

125gr TiCon.

You know Mark Mathieson and I designed that blade back in the early 90's (back then it was a .020" blade).  I've designed a lot of heads and blades since then and that is still the one I turn to when things get serious!  Short enough to give good flight - even with fast bow speeds, steep enough blade angle to still cut when blades start to dull on long pass throughs, yet still long enough that it penetrates like it only strikes butter, and the .025" thickness just seems to sharpen so much better than .030" does.  Easily my personal favorite in the RAD/Savora line.
