I'm thinking about trying another mechanical this year, just as an experimental thing. I've looked at the Rages, and they look like a decent design - hearinglots of things about blades breaking and not opening fully.

No failures here, all of mine opened. And I found my deer too. Usually watch them tip over!!

You know that would be pretty funny if I could just get over my image of you and Frannie in your matching purple Barney sweat shirts skipping down the street hand in hand.

How about a new pic with you & Francis in matching wife beaters showing off those twin mini guns.

Cute Jim, but I really wish you'd quit fantasizing about myself and other men in romantic situations. It's creepy.

DougE, I would say you have given good examples of mechanical broadhead failures. I can't say that I blame you for switching. In my experience I have never had a failure other than those I caused. I'll keep using them because I like their forgiving nature and those wide cuts.
