    Call me the odd man out but I like the NAP Spitfire Maxx or the new XXX. They're basically the same head except the XXX is a 2" cut and the Maxx is a 1 3/4". I personally prefer 3 blades to get more total cutting surface and less chance of the wound closing up.

    I've used the NAP Spitfire for years and I have no reason to change.

    NAP's get my vote. I've never had an issue. Folks I know who shoot grim reaper love those heads.

    I know there's a lot of rage fans, but a quick scroll through all the lost deer threads might change your mind.

    I do not use mechanicals but your statement isn't really fair because many of the lost deer threads are new/newer bowhunters. Shot placement and poor tracking results in more lost deer than the broadhead used.

    I've shot two does with my NAP Killzones 100 grain.. I only pull back about 58 lbs but they both had a great blood trail and entry/exit holes.. Highly recommend them

    Rage Hypos for me!

    for the record, if a Rage broadhead or any other mechanical head never opened it would still be deadly if placement is right!

    Haters gonna hate
