Running the Rad Rivals this year, liked the shuttle T's but prefer to support local quality businesses.

That's where I'm at I have two friends that work for trophy taker now option archery but Dan sold the shuttle T off and it's going to get made on the other side of he country with who knows the quality control.

Love the RAD madman head. Got the job done on zebra Which is close in size. Any of RAD heads will get it done and they are from WA so support a local to the state company

I'd say don't over think it  .  I've shot elk dead with Thunderheads, Muzzys, Satelllites, Wasp Cam-Locks, Dartons (bet you guys didn't know they made a BH back in the day), Bears, Shuttle T's, etc., etc.  Find what flies like your field points (after bow is 100% tuned) and whatever is on the tip of your arrow will kill an elk.  Anything modern that cuts on contact is a consideration for initial penetration.  I've been playing around with the Magnus Buzzcuts this spring and am impressed with their accuracy and penetration on my Rhinehart target so they may get the nod this fall. It's always fun to consider and try out new BHs that fly well

If your arrow is slow go with the cut on contact long and narrow....if it's fast then pick a theory and have at it.....cant go wrong as long as you kill stuff

Sorry if asked already, but why are the shuttle T's dull out of the package?  Is that part of the design and how they work?  I use them and have seen the damage they do, looks like a gun shot.  So, do I leave them dull or sharpen them?

Always best to sharpen whatever BH a person uses to a razors edge for max effectiveness. Not sure why some BHs don't arrive razor sharp in package?

What your saying makes perfect sense, but the hole these bh's make going in are amazing and I just wonder if it's part of the design?

I really want to try the kudu point heads.  They look deadly.

Old school thunderheads have been my choice for 20 years now.  I have thought about changing but if it aint broke....
