IronBucks Posted September 16, 2014 Share Posted September 16, 2014 I finally decided to go back to broadheads after using Rage Mechanicals (I had a Rage not open on a shot last year). I decided on Slick Trick Magnums, but the guys at the shop were all about the Ramcat 100's. The owner said that they shoot just like his field tips out to 50 yards. Wondering if anyone else has experience with these. I watched some YouTube videos and many animals didn't even run off the screen before dropping.

I'd say it is safe most people don't think of Rages as broadheads. LOL. Slick Trick Standards and Mags in my mind have proven to be the best non-mech head ever made.

pistolp71 Posted September 16, 2014 Share Posted September 16, 2014 Where was the hit and angle of the shot with the Rage? I was looking at those Ramcats as well and thinking of trying them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IronBucks Posted September 16, 2014 Author Share Posted September 16, 2014 Where was the hit and angle of the shot with the Rage? I was looking at those Ramcats as well and thinking of trying them. The shot was 20 yards out from about 15 feet up in a tree stand. Perfect broadside shot. Even thought the blades didn't open the shot went right through the heart and it only ran about 30 yards before dropping. Wouldn't have been so lucky if the shot placement was slightly off...

pistolp71 Posted September 16, 2014 Share Posted September 16, 2014 Seems odd that it would be a complete pass through without the blade opening. I've never used a rage. I just did some research on those Ramcats, very impressive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abuckn6does Posted September 16, 2014 Share Posted September 16, 2014 I've used the Rage for five years now, and never had a problem. I'm not saying that you can't come across a defective one, but I'm very happy with them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geno C Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 Someone is bound to have a defect in any head... I've shot rage for this will be my 7th season I believe without any fails. I won't try anything else... I've come from fixed blades and since I started with rage I just won't look back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
