Thinking about switching from shuttle t s. Anyone have any thoughts on grim reaper hybrid? One serious concern I have with then is when you want to test them and shoot them into target how do you get them out of target.
-
They have practice broad heads you can get but the blades will fold back in when you pull them out. I used them when I lived in Cali. I will be using the razor ones.
-
Did they deploy and work well. Why the switch to razors from hybrids. I hear the razors have a delayed deployment.
-
Never used the hybrids. They look nice but want to use what i know that works. I seen them punch holes first hand through a front shoulder on a white tail and pass straight through with a bow drawing only 45 lbs. Exit wound was about 3" across. This was my aunt in MN.
-
Dang you might have just sold me on the razors
-
Razortip. They used to have a Chisel tip that didn't have the blades in the tip.
-
i guess one of the issues with the razor tips is if your bow is a heavy draw arrow will punch threw without deploying especially on smaller animals. I kinda like the hybrids cause if the mechanical aspect of the broad head fails I will still have a good chance at recovering animal. I am still worried that blade will deploy mid flight and screw up shot. I dunno fixed have been killing animals for thousands of years
-
those blades hold tight. My family in MN have been shooting them for years without any pre deployments. Practicing with them and I haven't had any pre deployments either.

Bingo :tup:

If you have doubt and concern just stay with a fixed blade. :tup:
