Lol thanks boar, first time pulled bow out this season going to shoot every night or every other until bear or deer opens depending on if I get drawn...Got some heavier arrows to use for bear really helped penetration seemed like was getting 6+ inchess, on the foam target at least. Decided on grim reaper broad heads heard nothing but good things about and they flew nice. Rage just seemed like issue waiting to happen with the dam o ring and don't seem as strong. Now just need to get drawn and do some scouting...oh and get more bait
