I'll never understand why guys will spend hundreds of dollars on a good setup and even remotely consider using nickle broadheads.
Eastman Broadheads have been very poor quality for years, hopefully they've improved.

RE: Good deal or Huge Ripoff?
I killed my first two deer with those exact broadheads.
They got the job done. The broadhead stayed intact and I got two passthroughs, and the both deer died. So I guess they did their job. They always flew pretty good for me, too.
I think you got a good deal on them.
By the way, some of the other Eastman broadheads are actually pretty nice too, especially the firstcut mechanical and the one that looks like a Silver Flame. I've also had good luck with the 125 grain Sabre Titaniums.
People assume their junk because they're sold at Walmart, but I think they are actually decent broadheads for the money. Just spin check them first.

Walmart also sells NAP Broadheads and I always say they are a quality head.
If you want good clean oats you will pay a fair price, if on the other hand you are content with oats after they have been through the Horse there are some Bargains!

RE: Good deal or Huge Ripoff?
I bought a pack at walmart years ago and they were the most ptitful cheap piece of crap.... sorry excuse for a broadhead I have ever seen. They were not sharp..... I could pull it across my arm and not hardly leave a mark.... they flew terrible, and they were very weak..... breaking easily ..... I hope you have better luck, but I wouldn't hold my breath about them...
