Wanderer Posted July 31, 2008 Share Posted July 31, 2008 Seemed like all the talk last year lead to the 2 blade design. But I'm sure there will be more solid input than that to come! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
killerloop1 Posted July 31, 2008 Share Posted July 31, 2008 early on they had some probs with the 3 blade, but is fixed now I guess, I shoot the 2 blade and I think I'm going to continue through this year also Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
koonie Posted July 31, 2008 Share Posted July 31, 2008 The company is doing everything in house this year so I don't think you'll see any more problems with the three blade. Last year they farmed the job out to someone else. This is according to our Rage rep. There also shouldn't be a shortage of 2 blades this year so should be no problems getting these broadheads.

Meat-Run Posted August 1, 2008 Share Posted August 1, 2008 I've used the 3 blade with no problems except fumbling with getting another band over the system. But for the ease of things I now us the two blade and like the 2" cutting diameter. One tip to consider is always keep an eye on those rubber bands and keep them moist or they will dry up and then the blades deploy.mr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benelli_dude2002 Posted August 6, 2008 Share Posted August 6, 2008 I just picked up a pack of 2 blade Rage broadheads. Looking forward to trying them out this fall. Think they will hold up on moose? always used cut on contact fixed heads Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PFUNK Posted August 21, 2008 Share Posted August 21, 2008 shot a hole the size of texas into a buck with the 3-blade last season. the blood trail was...well, bloody. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
USPENAMC Posted August 21, 2008 Share Posted August 21, 2008 i used some no name brand that i got for a few dollar it was 3 blade. First ever shot at a deer 40 yards perfect hit made a hole bigger than a shotgun slug. one of the blades did break. I guess my point is practice with your brand and make a good shot. i want to try these rage broadheads myself but dont see the need to spend 40 bucks when i can spend 5 with the same outcome?

It seemed to me the shortage was always with the 3-blade...am I wrong? I've been using the 3's with no problems. Superior flight, too. How do the 2's fly in comparison?

koonie Posted August 22, 2008 Share Posted August 22, 2008 I believe it was the two blade that was hard to get. The three blade was the one that had some issues.Rage is a very good head. Right now they have a marketing plan that has just about taken over the expandable broadhead market. There are alot of expandables on the market that are just as good. Wasp, Grim Reaper, and Snyper to name a few.Try them out and see how they fly. That's all you can do.I'm sticking with fixed blade broadheads. Expandables sometimes get used as a crutch in my opinion. You hear many guys say they can't get fixed blade heads to fly well for them so they use expandables. A properly tuned bow will shoot pretty much any head to the same point of impact as field points. There are always exceptions though.Fixed vs. mechanicals what's better? Ford vs. Chevy Marcum vs. Vexilar. It's all personal preference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tippman Posted August 24, 2008 Share Posted August 24, 2008 Well I bought into the marketing ploy and picked up some Rage 3 blades today. I have heard nothing but good from people using them so that means something. We'll see.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

koonie Posted August 24, 2008 Share Posted August 24, 2008 I didn't mean the marketing was a bad thing. There is just so much hype. It's a good broadhead and they market the [PoorWordUsage] out of it. That's what I meant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
