    The main reason I switched was because I went from 125 grain to 100 grain phantom and the bleeder blades on the 100 grain stuck out to far on the base of the broad head and would not go all the way into my arrow I took the broad heads back to my local bow shop we thought it was my arrow have glue in the shaft or the threads where clogged or bad but after review it was the broad heads it's not like it was just one broad head it was all 3 in the package 125 grain was fine but I'll never go back to muzzy again

    I'm bored, day off, don't want to go to the bow shop bc I'll spend money. So here's my rig for this year.

    Mathews Halon 6
    29" mods / about 65 lbs
    284 fps
    "Heavy" stabilizer damper in lower riser
    Limb Driver Pro-V
    Gold Tip Hunter XT 340's w/100 grain head
    Straight 1 degree offset blazers

    I want to crank it up for hunting but I need a stiffer arrow. It's the most accurate where I have it, and I need to leave it alone. With the limbs maxed out, I can literally watch the arrows get crazy when shooting at 60 yards. [​IMG]

    Thanks...I traded an ar-15 for it. I rarely shot the ar and was shooting my bow constantly. I had a Diamond Carbon Cure up until this summer. It shot really well, but as much as I shoot, I couldn't keep strings on it. That dude was a string eater. Sure was light compared to this Halon though.

    We'll just got back from putting up cameras!!! From the trail this is the only one I seen!! It is a good sign though as it's 10 feet from my blind. It isn't a big one but it tells me there hard horned now and seasons really close lol.

    Mine does the same thing with the arrows. Always wonder what causes it, but I leave it alone because I am pretty accurate with it. Great looking setup!
