Heres an entrance wound on a doe i took last season with the rage 2 blade. She only went about 25yds. I double lunged her. have never had any problems with them except when stalking the blades pop open very easily.

RE: Rage Broadheads
Im sorry but i will NEVER use a mechanical type broadhead, (if i do sometime in the future, i will issue an apology 
),
This includes Rage,
I know of at least 2 family members who have had problems with mechanical heads. And, Muzzy has treated me and its customers well.
Just my opinion on the matter

RE: Rage Broadheads
of course youre going to have a tear if your head oepned up thats why they recomend that you dont shoot expandables through shoot through mesh lol.

Don't shoot them thru mesh of a blind. Mine opened up and I have the rip to prove it. Very hard to keep the blades from falling out also.

RE: Rage Broadheads
When I shot 1 side opened up. That could be from the looseness of the blades.(guessing) I'm gonna try adding rubber bands like Matt/PA suggested. Also, I'm getting a different quiver with no foam so my heads will be free hanging. Hopefully that will keep the pressure off them.

RE: Rage Broadheads
I couldn't bring myself to spend $40 for three heads. Iwent toBass Pro specifically to buy them. I just couldn't do it. I'm too cheap I guess. And I went there knowing how much they cost. Maybe I'll use them if I get them as a gift for fathers day.

RE: Rage Broadheads
I know these heads put massive holes in your animals but damn they sound to be a pain in the butt to deal with. Top many screws, bands, this, that for me to even think about wanting to like them. No way! I like my stuff simple I guess. No knock on anyone who shoots them but there just not for me.
