Just bumping this up so you guys and gals that were busy on the 4th and didn't see it don't miss out. Less than 4 days left.

Thanks so much for the bump

I had missed this. After using the TI con for the past few years, the rival was to intriguing to not try. I placed and order for a dozen. Heads up folks, these are awesome BH IMO. Great deal here.

Jason and I seem to have stumbled onto something special with that Rival head. Not only are they selling very well, but the performance has exceeded what I expected. Holes in hide have been surprisingly larger than those with the VanDyke or DelMastro. Both Justin Llanes and our Australian team are raving about the soft tissue penetration. One of our top Australians actually complained that he hadn't been able to find a kill arrow this year after pass thru. "Last glimpse I get of them is when they clear the bush 30-40 yards behind the kill shot." The hollow bone penetration is so close to the DelMastro and VanDyke is hard to determine much difference. It is not "Titanium" tough but has exceeded our durability expectations as well.

It really appears to be a lower cost/extra short version of a Ti-Con - which is what I had hoped for when Jason brought up the idea. The more time we spend shooting it, the more meat we put in the freezers with it, the more impressed we get with just how well it came together.

Thank you for the info. The TI con may be my favorite head I have used. ( And I admit I will have some in reserve

) but i'm a sucker to try new stuff, as long as it is well designed and functional. These rivals sure seem to fit that niche. Can't wait.

Rad,

Which BH would you most recommend for deer and elk? Would that be the Rival? Can I get it in a 125 grain? I'm shooting a mid-range Hoyt Turbo Hawk at around 63 lbs. Thanks neighbor.

If a head doesn't work on elk...I won't build it. So it really comes down to personal preference. Choices are limited when we get to 125 grain choices so that would be VanDyke, DelMastro (High Profile), Rival (avail in both VanDyke and DelMastro blade styles) and the Ti-Con.

VanDyke (LPS) blade style flies best in wind and penetrates better than most, DelMastro (HPV) blade leaves a bigger hole in hide and a slight advantage in blood trails. Ti-Con is a bit longer head so overall bigger size, but it ends up being a compromise between the VanDyke and DelMastro blade styles.

But as to which is better? It's about like asking Dodge, Ford, Chevy and Toyota owners what the best truck is. Of course my personal favorite, the Ti-Con, is always the best choice!! Jason Phelps, Larry VanDyke, Del DelMastro...they just don't understand.

carpsniperg2 · « **Reply #7 on:** July 05, 2018, 12:48:56 PM »

I shoot the VanDyke and I can tell you they are hands down the best heads I have ever used and I have boxes of broadheads. I hunt a lot of open and the low profile fly so much better in the winds that usually come with the open country. They penitrate deep and while the cutting diameter is a little smaller, the accuracy and blood trails have been outstanding for me.

cem3434 · « **Reply #8 on:** July 08, 2018, 06:55:15 PM »

Glad I seen this deal as I just picked a couple packs of the Madman broadheads for my wife to start shooting.

RadSav · « **Reply #9 on:** July 08, 2018, 10:46:36 PM »

Sweet! Thank you.

We should have a few more special deals between now and hunting season. Not sure if anything will be as wide encompassing or good as our 4th of July special. But should have some select product specials along the way.

Been good to see how many Hunt-WA folks got in and saved some money. We really do appreciate the support.

Those should even be better in 2018. Found a slight screw placement issue mid-season that made one out of every 20 or so not spin right without backing a screw out and putting it back in while loaded. Be dang hard pressed to find one not spin perfect right now. Also, the recent batch of blades are much higher quality and ground with an even finer hone wheel than we had last year. Should be even sharper than they were before!

I ordered some of the Rival 125s last week. Should be here today or tomorrow, I imagine. Thanks Bryan.

Wish I would have seen this last week

Was looking at the Rival 125 but non of the local stores had any RAD products in stock. Grabbed some Wac-Em 125 instead.

return those dumb ol Wac-Em's and hit Bryan up for those rivals. They are worth the effort

I got my Rivals yesterday. They're so pretty. I love the extra blades! These won't hurt my expensive target, will they Rad?

They should mess it up really good!

Keep practice blades sharp. It's surprising how much more life you get out of a target when you cut into it instead of tearing in and out. And then the big key is ALWAYS shooting into it at right angles.

Do you have replacement blades for the rival 100 HPV? According to your site:

12 PACK
HPV blade fits MadMan, Triple Sec. & Titanium Signature

i think the website just needs updating because I shot Rival all last year and again this year and they take the regular HPV

RadSav · « **Reply #20 on:** July 19, 2018, 12:15:04 PM »

Sorry I did not see this come through. Yes, the HPV, LPV and LPS blades are universal with MadMan, Triple Sec and Titanium Signature heads. Webstore is not my deal, but I will try to get the site updated asap. Thank you for the heads up.

Jonathan_S · « **Reply #21 on:** July 19, 2018, 12:25:18 PM »

Anybody who missed the sale shouldn't let that stop them from switching to RAD heads. I'm not like his prostaff guys, killing piles of game but I have taken deer and/or elk with multiple RAD broadheads. The TiSignature LPS (VanDyke I believe), TiCon 125, and Rival 125 and they are all excellently designed. On the smaller end, my wife has shot the MadMan 85LPS and killed a deer with them as well.

Replacement blades are a snap to change but lock in so tight, they feel like a one piece.

We have been talking with a major customer about swapping some 2015 MadMan ferrules for the new MadMan ferrules. If this works out (should know in a day or two) we will offer those 2015 models at a ridiculous price to Hunt WA members first. So keep an eye out for that post.

Can we pre-order on that contingency?

@radSav

What's the best way to buy a couple 3 packs of the Rival HPV's?

RadSav · « **Reply #28 on:** July 29, 2019, 11:56:42 AM »

Due to freight charges you probably get the best deal through a retailer. But we are 100% in stock here so you can order online with a small $3.95 freight charge. Should hit your door in 3 days USPS first class.

Jonathan_S · « **Reply #29 on:** July 29, 2019, 02:06:50 PM »

Mine took 2 days and I got the swag new packaging. Super excited to make one disappear in an elk soon.

Wife and I have killed several deer and a couple elk with TiCon, Madman, VanDyke, and Rival heads. All easy to install and extremely sharp.

I had a Triple Sec blast through a gator so if this broadhead can do that to an animal with armor on its back it’s definitely going to be good for deer, elk, moose, or caribou.

daddysprad · « **Reply #34 on:** September 23, 2019, 06:25:43 AM »

I just wat to throw out a kudo for RAD. I made a first time purchase of 2 3packs of Rival 125s. When I put all of them together, one of the heads was missing the tiny set screw that holds the one of the blades in place. I called RAD and asked if they could send me a set screw. The lady I talked to on the phone was really helpful and nice and said she would send it ASAP. Two days later I received a new $38, 3 pack of Rivals in the mail. Great customer service and way to back up your product. Thanks
