Grim Reaper broadheads
I was just wondering if anyone has used Grim Reaper on deer before, i am for sure going to use them this year, but i was juut wondering if anyone had used them in the past, and what kind of hole they made, what kind of penitration they got, did they open that kind of stuff. i am shhoting a Hoyt Xtec at 66# if that makes any difference. thanks for the help

Lou-Lou,
If they are a good broadhead and other fly just as well....what makes the stingers or steelforce better? Just curious if you can get a little more in depth with what you mean!

RE: Grim Reaper broadheads
What i mean is that why would you take the chance of having the blades not open correctly when you can get a fixed blade to fly the same and have no worries. Those names are only some of the many good broadhead that fly well. I'm not saying that they cannot kill game, but for me I would eliminate all possiable or potential problems, good luck in whatever you decide

RE: Grim Reaper broadheads
lou-lou,
Have you ever shot the Grim Reapors before? I hunted with them last year and this is by far the best broadhead that I have ever used. Took several whitetails last season with them. I used Muzzy 3 blades for the past 10 years before that and they were , and still are a very good broadhead, they didn't open a wound channel like the grim reapors did. By the way, what broadhead is better? The Grim Reapors are one of the most expensive and hottest selling broadheads at my pro shop, so if something will finish off a deer faster and lots cheaper, I'm all ears.

RE: Grim Reaper broadheads
I have to agree with you on thw wound channel. no fixed blade with make a hole like a mech. Grim reapers are hot around me too, Any broadhead willkill a deer if put in the right spot, but it's when you make a questionble shot is where mech. sometimes don't do the trick, Lost a few deer with mech. Blades were to big and caught a rib and stopped. For mech. if I were to shoot them again I would shoot Vortec mini mag 3 blades, awesome penetration with a big cutting diameter.
