2 or 3 blade mechanical BH's

[killerbren]

I think im gonna make the switch to mechanical broad heads this year, but im not sure about a 2 blade or a 3 blade. Im looking at the rage BH.

So whats the difference between 2 blade and 3 blade, except for the obvious cutting diameter?

??? I give ....One more blade.........

some say that the game do not react as much to the 2 blades as much as the 3's

here is one way of looking at it . Take a knife stab it into your leg 1/2 in how far will you go befor bleeding out. Then do it twice then three times. The way I see it is the more they bleed the beter off you are and you should have faster recovery times on your animals.

Are 3 blades not the minimum legal requirement?

No. 90% of trad shooters will be shooting two blade cut-on-contact BH's.

I have heard the 3 blade Rage Broadheads 'sometimes' have problems opening as opposed to the 2 blade. Just heard it from one person.

Cutting diameter is also another difference. 3 blades is smaller than 2 (with the Rage broadheads at least).

I'll be trying the 2 blade because I belive I'll have more change of cutting a major bloodway with the extra half inch.
