Killed 2 elk with them, complete pass thru, both down In less than 80 yrds

I heard they are good but the blades can bend. I went with standard slick tricks and they worked good. I’m still searching for the best long range head.
Picked some up this year after giving up on mechanicals. Had them hitting right with my field points, but also made a concerted effort on tuning my bow and went with 125 grain after having always shot 100 previously. Just shot one doe which died within 80 yards. Had a solid drizzle that day and didn’t have a blood trail by the time I got to looking.
I use rage mechanicals for deer and exodus for everything else. I use Easton FMJ arrows. Works for me.

I use cut on contact for elk sized game and hogs for penetration reasons. I've killed both with rage's also, just feel better shooting qad for bigger, tougher game. They both shoot to same spot out of my bow, so I carry both in my quiver.

I used to try a different broadhead every year, until I switched to Exodus. I’ve got two teenagers that wanted to hunt bow season, so I got them a couple of budget crossbows. Switched us all to the Exodus that year, and we’ve recovered every deer we’ve shot since then. (And my kids made some TERRIBLE shots that 1st year). I’m a believer. Simple, durable, and effective.
I spend a lot of time getting my bow / shooting form correct/ accurate. Like most on this site I am sure. With that said I have tested that head for accuracy out to 60 yards and found it to be the most accurate fixed blade for my set up etc. Also killed one deer excellent performance.
