Broad head that will never let you down

I know the ford vs. chevy guys can't help going at each other but.........
Why has everybody forgoten ole faithful. Thunderhead Broadheads!
85 gr. 100 gr. or 125 gr it does not matter they kill em dead, fly true and won't kill your pocket book. Blades are not quite as strong as I think they should be BUT then again none of the Beautiful animals the Good lord has blessed me a shot at has broken a single blade. just my old 3D doe that used to be a buck has broken one. rage and the such ARE cool but for me if it ain't broke don't fix it.

those were the first broadheads I ever shot, 125 gr.

 

I shot a lot of deer with the 100gr Thunderhead. They never let me down. I even blew through a buck's shoulder and still got a pass through. Blades stayed intact. The only reason I switch to the G5 Striker is because they shoot flatter than the Thunderheads. Inside 30 yards, the Thunderheads were right with the field points, but past that they fell off fast. The Strikers are right on the money all the way out to 60 yards.

 

When I saw the title of your post the first thing that popped into my mind was "Thunderhead". They never failed me and I've shot probably 80% of my animals with them.

 

I wonder if the bow needs a little fine tuning?

 

Potentially even some "rough" tuning. :D

 

Love my thunderheads.

 

I have to agree. They are a great head.

 

Great Broadheads.

 

Proof is in the pudding right Silver.......... very nice hole.
Thank all of you guys for your responce.

Perhaps you should test them yourself.

 

Kind of like on par with Muzzys. Probably the only two broadheads that have withstood the ultimate test.

That being said my Rage hasn't let me down in three seasons. Twice as big a hole as the afore posted one.

 

Test them? First pig I have ever shot is below ran maybe 9 yrds.
They barely slow down on a whitetail.
Check out the video of the pig on youtube Battle mountain wild boar.
Then say I should try them out myself.


Arrow junkie,

 

Well it's not down it's up a few replys lmao.

 

I'm just pointing out that sometimes a larger profile head will show minor flaws in tuning that a small profile head or fieldpoint won't indicate.

I've shot them extensively but admittedly not over 40 yards since that was back in the days before my maximum effective range was where it is today. Now I shoot small diameter shafts that don't go well with the Thunderhead because of the need for the BAR, which I dislike so I've gotten away from the TH.

 

I used the thunderheads and thought they were very good heads.

The reason I like the muzzys better is because they're easier to put together (yeah, I'm a klutz) and they retain blades better when I'm richocheting my arrows off of gravel and trees. (squirrel and vermin shooting)

 

Larger profile/surface area slows the arrow down causing them to drop faster. Believe, I wanted to keep shooting the Thunderhead, but since I got into elk hunting, I wanted a fixed head that would match field tip trajectory out to 60 yards. The Striker fit that bill. The Thunderhead did not.

 

I have not found that to be the case when I switch from a FP to a large profile BH.

This is one of the BH's I use and it flies with the FP out to 50yds.

 

Spine Shot.

 

I'm with Bruce on this one. The larger profile is only exposed to drag if the arrow is not flying true (point on the two heads have the same profile) which indicates that the bow/arrow combination is out of tune, even if it is slight.
