Over the years i have probably killed between 60-75 deer with a bow. I always shot rage, and never had to track a deer over 50 yards.
This season i shot a doe on opening day, with a rage hypo, and the arrow deflected off a twig and hit her in the rear leg, cut some arteries and still found the deer within 50 yards.
I was shooting a low poundage bow, so with that shot not passing through i decided to switch to a fixed blade head. I chose the ramcat based on penetration. These heads penetrate GREAT, i have shot two deer eith them so far.
That said, these are the first two deer i have ever shot that i could not manage to find. Great blood on both the first 40 feet, and the shot was right in the goody from reviewing my videos. I have had it with this, the one i shot yesterday evening was a huge buck ive been after.
So yeah, ive got some ramcats ill trade for some rage 2 blades. Got some replacement blades ill throw into the mix......
