![]() ![]() she was quartered away slightly with a hard downward angle. Shot a doe at about a 60deg angle out of my stand. Got a wild hair years ago to try a rage my buddy gave me. All it takes is a blade to not hit square and rotate the arrow. With the big blades on the expandables now a days it doesn't take much for them to hinge when they hit. I use wac'ems and slick tricks for years, and always been impressed with accuracy and penetration. I want my arrow to enter the body where I put the pin, and come out at same angle. I have seen countless expendable's hinge upon impact. #2626600 - 01/31/14 10:00 PM Re: Grim reaper 2" 3 blade 100g broadhead deflection.pics of recovered 12pt Maybe they are too light to provide enough connetic energy for a proper pass through?Įdited by Dultimatpredator ( 01/31/14 09:40 PM) If I were you looking at the photo I would think the same.but that deer was perfectly quartering away from me at a 45 degree angle. #2593878 - 12/20/13 04:30 PM Re: Grim reaper 2" 3 blade 100g broadhead deflection.pics of recovered 12pt From the looks of how that arrow skidded down that deer it seems like a really hard angle to try putting an arrow in the deer in the first place, maybe some better shot selection, ive shot them with reapers at angles and never had one stray like that so Im a bit sceptical of shot placement. Rage are garbadge they will never be screwed onto another arrow of mine I had a small buck hit at 25 yards shooting my usual 70 pound bow with full metal jacket arrows the arrow hit the deer so hard it took it off its feet it got up and ran off with my arrow no penetration what so ever no blood no deer. I will continue using this head until something changes my results. I have taken several deer since then the last one blew me away how well these heads work 45 yard shot quartering away the arrow past through the offside scapula and still went up the hill another 40 yards past the deer the head was in perfect shape no dammage. My first deer the past through so quick the buck ran 2 feet and fell over. I have shot reapers for several seasons and have never had anything short of amazing results. #2565562 - 11/02/13 03:35 PM Re: Grim reaper 2" 3 blade 100g broadhead deflection.pics of recovered 12pt I guess I will try either Rages chisel tip or a Swacker next year.Įdited by Dultimatpredator ( 11/02/13 11:59 AM) I use to shoot Rocky Mountain Gators until they changed to the wimpy cut on contact tip that bent and broke off. This is only the 2nd deer I have shot with this broadhead and it will be the last. I didn't get a pass though and the deer made it 30 yards before dropping. The buck I shot last year was perfectly broadside at about 7 yards. Where the broad head came to rest under the front shoulder was torn up severely but never penetrated through the rib cage. One of the blades sliced through 5 ribs and caught a lung. ![]() When I cleaned the buck I found that the cut across the ribs from the defection was what killed him. A cut on contact would have zipped right through the animal. I shot a coyote last week with this broadhead and one other buck last year with the grim reaper.and it will be my last. He walked into a creek and went a good hundred and fifty yards down it and then cut up into a field in chest high brush before expiring. The deer went over five hundred yards total before I found him. The broadhead deflected across the ribs and came to rest under the bucks armpit and then fell out. ![]() I shot and recovered a 12 pointer yesterday morning that I shot quartering away at 20 yards. ![]()
