What's your view? Had trouble with either? I know they both kill a deer obviously, but does either affect arrow flight more than the other or something?

Shot placement is everything. But I prefer mechanical (rage,t3) because in the case of a bad shot they sure do help.

Broadheads are too expensive for me to shoot once and throw away.....

Fixed myself. Seen a lot of shots with expandable that will hit a bone on the other side and either the arrow will back out or break off which leaves no blood trail if you are shooting down. But every one has there preference. Same can be done with fixed blades but not as often.

And shot placement is always key. But I like the extra security of the fixed blades bulling its way all the way thru.

I don't have a problem with either, but I'll probably shoot Slick Tricks as long as they make them.

I shoot Thunderhead 100s. They fly just like my field points out to 60 yards. They may be good at farther distances, but I haven't tried it yet.

Rage extreme for me

I haven't found an expendable broadhead either...

Ha, I am glad someone picked up on it. In all honesty I haven't shot enough deer with a bow to have a valid opinion. I have always used Muzzy's just because that's what the guy that got me shooting bows used.

I've shot Rage and Schwackers... No problem with either.... Both have flown great for me...

Rage in the Cage.

You want a killing machine that will fly, like a field point (yep, I said it) at long ranges, get some Ramcats.

I'm a Muzzy guy. I swapped over to Splitfires one time... shot at a doe quartering away (hit around last rib) and watched the arrow turn. Never found her.

Threw those SOBs away and went back to my Muzzys. Haven't (and probably won't) change again.

Im new to bow hunting, last bow season was my first bow season. Hunted plenty of years with a rifle. Just hadnt got the chance to stick one with an arrow. My climbing tree days were over this past season as I had a leg injury, and I was limited to shooting houses which I dont believe is the true hunting experience. Thanks for the info, just trying to make sure when I do get the chance to sling the arrow, it'll pay off with meat in the freezer!

x2! Suckers do work on a deer!

X2

Muzzy man here. I shot one through the face of a 135 pig at 8 yards and it came out behind the shoulder intact. Enough said.

"Expendable" is an accurate description in my opinion. Innerloc 100 gr. 3 blade, for me.

2 blade rage, i have some ive killed 3 or 4 deer with. usually i sharpen the blades and wash the blood off and stick em back in the quiver, if i shoot one through the shoulder or spine or hit a rock on the exit i will replace the blades.
