I picked up some rocky mnt revolution broad heads. Just wonderin if they are ant good. They open totally opposite of regular mechanical broadheads. They have a sliding cartridge that opens on impact, so as the tip hits and pushes the cartridge and at the same time pushes the blades out the bottom , instead of the rubber band system. I am goin hog hunting in a couple of weeks and thought i would give them a try. Ant feed back would be great, especially if you have had and with the blades not opening..

Thanks power. Was hoping someone used them and could give up some info tho. I guess they stopped making it for a reason . Hopefully it just didnt catch on and wasnt because it didnt work well. Can you post a pig pic? It would be dead.

orangestew, any problem with the blades opening up? and did you have to take the big "o" ring off the bottom of the blade? It looks to me like it might inter fear with the blades opening. I guess I should have checked it out better before investing in them, my bad..thanks for the info guys!!

You can tune your bow so field poits and fixed blade broadheads hit the same spot it just takes a little time tinkering with the rest. And FYI just cause they say flies like a feildpoint dose not mean you don't have to shoot them, you have to shoot what your hunting with otherwise it's just an excuse to fail.

rocky mountain broadheads were bought by field logic.

And I believe Field Logic also manufactures Rage broadheads. They really trimmed down the line up of Rocky mountain broadheads. They only offer 6 different models now. Which might not be a bad thing, but they discontinued the model I really liked.

Field logic does manufacture the Rage, if they discontinued the model you liked, call them up they may have some laying around still.

That is exactly what I did. Rocky Mountain informed me they were selling all the discontinued broadheads on the bay. I bought as many as I could afford. I think I still have about a dozen left.

    • Sorry to hear that Duff. Will give my GSP's an extra scratch behind the ear for you guys today
    • Aw, man, sorry to hear that.  Shed some tears and remember her well.  They all take a piece of our hearts with them; some more than others.
    • yes sorry for your loss..  our dogs are always special...
    • Truly sorry to hear that duffman! I know that feeling.  Keep the good memories  
    • Chamois passed away this weekend a couple days short of her 13th bday. What a great dog to hang out with here at home and on distant adventures. Gonna miss ya big time my little big girl.
    • Sounds pretty sweet, alright. I will check them out, thanks.
    • If you really want to treat your wife (and yourself) with a remote operated trolling motor, the Minn Kota Ulterra is about easy as it gets.  Auto stow and deploy is pretty awesome.  You just have to turn the motor on when you go out and that the last time you have to touch it.   24V 80lb.  60 inch shaft is probably the right length for your boat.  They ain’t cheap - about $3k - but neither one of you would have to leave your seat to use it all day.
    • Wanderer, thanks for your reply. I do intend for it to be 24 volt, with a thrust of 70-80. Spot lock is a must (my wife is looking forward to not being the anchor person any more).  With my old boat we did quite a lot of pulling shad raps and hot n tots, using the trolling motor. Unlikely that we will fish in whitecaps, did plenty of that when I was younger. I also need a wireless remote, not going back to a foot pedal. We do a fair amount of bobber fishing. I don't think I will bother with a depth finder on the trolling motor. I am leaning toward moving my Garmin depth finder from my old boat to the new one, just because I am so used to it and it works well for me. I am 70 years old and kinda set in my ways...
    • Dang, new content and now answers.   First, congrats on the new boat!   My recommendation is to get the most thrust you can in 24V, assuming a boat that size isn’t running 36V.  80 might be tops?  I’m partial to MinnKota.     How do you plan to use the trolling motor is an important question too.     All weather or just nice weather?   Casting a lot or bait dragging?   Bobber or panfish fishing?   Spot lock?  Networked with depth finders?  What brand of depth finders?
