Default NAP Blood runners

Anyone had experience with NAP Blood runners? I bought a pack of 3 and have tried them out on a foam block target. Within 2 practice sessions, a blade fell off 2 of the arrows.

They are a hybrid of fixed blade/mechanical. They expand on impact, and they leave an impressive cutting path. But they don't seem to be able to stand up to practice.

I was looking at them this year as well. But seeing there is no word if there will be replacement blades, I opted out. I hope they work well for you. When you say they didnt hold up to practice, what happened to them?

Bought a set of 3. First practice session, one arrow lost a blade (ie. It broke off) Second practice session, another arrowhead had a blade break off. Shooting into a foam target. I looked on other forums and it seems to be a common problem. When I bought some new boradheads, the fellow at the archery store said that a number of customers have made they same complaint about the Bloodrunners.

They group very nice though. Just like the field points I use.
