Rage broadheads awesome.

If a person doesn't have confidence in them, they shouldn't shoot them.  Just relating my single experience with the hypo.  Good luck with whatever BH you choose.  A good shot with any will put the deer down.

if you go through my posts you will see I was a Big fan of them

last 4 packages my crew has purchased we have had quality issues with them

heck 2 of heads out of the packages I purchased the blades were missing the tabs to hold to the O-ring

& Rage will not even answer me. I had been using Rage for about 9 seasons I have used them on Deer, Turkey, Yotes & woodchucks. just ticks me off that at $40 a package they can't even acknowledge my concerns I have spent well over $300 in Rage heads over the years but no more $$$ from me

 

Just curious how you contacted them? When the hypodermic came out, I had a question about the new style of rings that hold the blade so I called them. They picked up the phone and answered my questions. I'd be surprised that if you called them and said you had issues that they would not respond in some manner.

Myself and two buddies, who use Rage, have taken several deer with them, over the past 5 yrs or so and we have never had an issue with them. They all worked great. I guess it is possible to get a bad batch. Its happened to me with other broad heads .

Quality issues? Quality is top notch. I saw you mentioned the o-ring which is their older design. The new improved shock collars are where it's at. I have a set of old 2 blade orings in now to use up but have you tried the hypodermics or extremes? Big difference from the oring style. They refined their design years ago with the shoulders. The head it self is designed very well for a mechanical being a rear deploying slip cam vs a cheesey over the top deploy.

the quality issue is in the blades where it latches into the shock collar & / or  O-rings these were brand New purchased in september 2 blade chisel tips if you look at your avatar the tiny hook under the cut outs were machined off

that would not have been a big deal if they just took care of my issue but not to even contact me back pisses me off

If they are the chisel tips they should have the shock collar not the o-ring, correct?

Your saying that the metal piece that locks into collar appears to be machined off? That doesn't sound like and everyday occurrence sounds like something fell through the cracks on assembly. It happens when you making millions of heads I'm sure. Not a reason for me to say I'm done with them I'd simply return them to dicks or where ever I bought them. I agree with jfb if you called them I can not see rage not picking up. Don't know why you just didn't return them in the first llace5. Sounds like a manufacture glitch rather then the quality in the design if you ask me.

Why not return them where you bought them since it was a defect? Why contact rage? I'm sure being hunting season they are experiencing higher call volumes?

[gfdeputy2]

Bass Pro too far away to just drive to return cost me as much in gas as the broadheads

tossed em I was so mad after the 4th package probably the wrong thing to do as I should have just bought replacement blades but I am moving on now running the G5 Havocs for NH & Carbon Tuners for NY

I am sure someday I will be back on the Rage bandwagon

but not until I get that confidence back I once had with them

I don't blame you. I did the same thing when I got junk packs of Satellite and Rocky Mtn Razorbacks. The Satellites had chisel tips that were only machined on 2 sides and were dull. The Razorbacks fell apart. Both times I got pissed and just tossed them. 

[gfdeputy2]

2 packages were mine 2 were others were other guys in my crew

didn't dare play the lotto with that luck LOL

Not sure what your setup is, but if you're shooting a lighter poundage (50-60 lbs) and a not so heavy arrow, you're prob not gonna get the pass through you'd expect. I shoot 72 lbs and around a 460 grain arrow and have never had an issue.

 

I'm shoot 72 lbs as well with the Carbon express maxima blue streaks @ 8.3 GPI. Not saying I have never gotton a pass through but there were a couple times i guess that just made me wonder how I didnt when i felt i should thats all. Used to shoot the 3-blade rage for a couple years untill Mr. DEC officer let me know they were a little illegal in NY. Loved em, and to this day are my fav. broadhead. I'm a rage fan thats for sure, and have never lost a deer shooting them. I think i might try the hypo's out next year...

[THHuntNY]

I love em I shoot the rage chisel tip

[Cbarber4]

Rage hypo no complaints here !

[abuckn6does]

Stone points work well.  It's all about placement.  But I have been using rage for years and never lost a deer.

[Burden24]

Doesn't matter what broadhead you shoot or the size of the hole. If your placement is good any head will get the job done. I shoot slick trick mags. If I was going to shoot a mechanical it would be the ulmer edge. I'm shooting 70#,gold tip 7595 that are 10.2 gpi. It's usually through them before they know what hit em.

[tommyc50]

have yet to shoot a deer w/ the rage b'head  but have issues opening and not locking and staying locked also cost is an issue bought the replcement blades awaste of $23 not worth the effort thew them away bought new ones

[dbHunterNY]

I love it when people complain about how much a broad head costs and then state they threw them alway.

[L. I. Yankee]

I've used them with really good success

I do like the toughness of the Chisel Tip Rage 100's.  The fact that the shock collar is needed to keep them from rattling bothers me a lot.  I shouldn't need extra parts to get their heads to work right.

Rage through the heart!

[abuckn6does]

Nice Shot.!!

[DanielT]

Thanks

[DanielT]

Wont change from Rage!

[eagle rider]

what kind of shape was the head in after that doe?
