    I watch alot of Bowhunt or Die and the killzone does look like it gets the job done. I've been hunting with Rage for 3 years now and never had any issues other than the blades popping out on a full draw because of the O-ring. Anyone who shoots Killzones do you prefer over all other broadheads?

    i bought my wife the 100gr hypodermic 2in cut this year so we shall see how those work. I'm still stuck on the titanium myself. Awesome blood trail and never had one go over 60 yards

    If it's between just Rage and Killzone, I'd say it probably comes down to what blade retention system you prefer. The O ring or collar for rage, or the spring thing from NAP. Both are 2", similar profile, price is the same...

    My son shoots rage low KE and I shoot killzone. Having been around both...killzone ALL DAY. The retainer system they use is so much better IMO.

    Neither for me, I like fixed blade. Less moving parts = less problems.

    I like the Rage 3 blade every deer I've unleashed one on I've never had to go more than 50 yards from where they were when I shot them and the blood trail was like walking a red carpet

    I love my killzones. Either way you can't go wrong in my opinion.

    Shoot the Killzones, love them! Shot this deer with a complete pass through, and after cleaning them off they look like nothing happened and just came out of the box!

    I would have to go with the rage since I have been shooting those for 5 years. Nothing wrong with a Killzone, but its just that I have no experience with it.

    I shoot them both and like them both however the spring lock system of the killzones are better i think. They stay locked better and don't have any play or the tendacy to pop open at a bad time. They've both performed equally well for me as far as killing goes.
