Curious about some of the Rage turkey broadheads that we’re recently released. 2”+ cutting diameter? Sounds like there wouldn’t be anything left if you missed the head and took a body shot

I’ve read the same thing. I do think in reality it would have to vary to a small degree at least

Out to 50 yards for sure the Grim Reapers hit the same as my Field points.
So do my BloodSport Grave Digger hybrids.

I'm really liking the hybrid designs. Even if the mechanical fails, you still have the fixed blade. I am using the Grave Digger chisel tips, my son is using the cut on contact.
