Default Annihilator broadheads

Has anyone taken a animal with these broadheads yet?
I got some but haven't had the opportunity to let one go

I shot an elk last year and the broadhead worked well. Mind you it was an 8 yard shot and it went through the heart. The head was in great shape. Not even dull. They fly extremely well too.

Cutting diameter seems a bit small but so do the 1x1 TOTA, placement is always key.

Been looking at it, seems like a solid head and would like to try it. The shape looks like it would fly well.

I got some 100gr XL to test and they tune decent to 40 yards. But after that I seem to get some planing.

So I might have too low a profile fletch for my 4 fletch.

The vented TOTA 1x1” tune well to 100 yards.

Also the Annihilator are noticeably noisier in my experince.

This last season I actually got to put them to work. Made my first kill ever on a nice doe. My shot wasn't great, hit the last rib back and exited out the tenderloin. She maybe went 30 yrds. Maybe it was a lucky shot but I'm totally confident in the annihilator broadheads

I haven't shot an animal with one but they shot good groups for me out to 60 yards. However one day when it was really windy and I was practicing they shot good to 40 and then had plaining problems when the Tooth of the Arrow, and Exodus Quads flew great out to the 60 yards.
