[QUOTE="squirrelduster, post: 514574, member: 9736"] Bigngreen - I tried the Tekan a few years ago and they do fly great but I bent the crap out of one of the blades shooting a rather scrawny hog. Didn't look like it really hit too much on the way through, a rib on entry and exit, killed him dead as a wedge but I was worried about the bigger game with them that was why I switched. I have tried the rage but they seem to have all kinds of problems, early blade deployment was my main problem. We shoot a lot of ground squirrels and the rage works really well on them if you can get it out of the quiver without the blades flopping around. I personally don't think there is a single solution to the broadhead question. In some cases mechanical heads may be the way to go, the high wind long range applications you may not be able to stabilize a fixed head. In those conditions most likely you would be shooting pronghorn or mule deer and they don't take a lot of killing like an elk or moose would. This has been a good thread to see what other hunters do. Thanks everyone for the comments. [/QUOTE]
