Default Not sure what to use?

Howdy Everyone!

I am new to the site, but really appreciate the information and discussions. [/align]
I am going on a Wild Hog Hunt in 2 weeks and am not sure what Broadhead would be the best. I know it is more about personal pref. than anything else, but would appreciate some feedback/suggestions.

QUESTION: RAGE 2 Blade vs. G5 Montech, which is better for my purpose? As of now I am leaning towards the RAGE 2 Blade due to the fact that it has a huge cutting surface and is going to fly like my FP's ...any suggestions/comments greatly appreciated![/align][/align][/align]

Awesome! Thanks for the information. I think I'll go with the Rage 2 Blade, but make sure the heads are sharp!

Nope. I'm a Virginian and attend Virginia Tech, just a nickname.

no matter what you use, please shoot your broadheads before hunting.

alot of hunters dont know to do that...even mechanicals can fly poorly..

only takes a little shooting to see where they hit and fly...only gotta dull 1 head and designate it for practice if you dont have many to shoot...just screw it onto different arrows to check them as well...youd be surprised...broadheads magnify errors in your setup that you didnt know exsisted with fieldpoints..

good luck

Thanks for the tip and I do plan on shooting them a couple of times before I go. Apparently, the RAGE broadheads come witha practice tip. Do you recommend that I still use a regular broadhead for hunting? My only concern is that the RAGE will do the damage necesary to make an ethical kill on the animal and I am (keeps fingers crossed) hopeful that I do not have to adjust my pins...
