Rated 1 out of 5 by NickCrappie1 Worst purchase I have made
I have always been a die hard fixed blade shooter. The only thing I didn't like about fixed blades were the small holes they put in animals. When I saw the TV program about Swhackers I told myself that this is the broadhead for me. I ordered a pack of the 125 gr and couldn't wait to try them. First off, they didn't fly like my field tips, they flew about 6 inches to the right and a couple inches high. I adjusted them and had them hitting dead on. Bow season came around and I was in the stand. I had a doe at 19 yards broadside and let a arrow fly. My arrow hits its mark and the doe ran off. I got down out of my stand to retrieve my arrow. To my surprise one of my blades were missing. I recovered the doe 100 or so yards off and found the blade in a rib when dressing the animal.

Rated 5 out of 5 by IIxSCORPIONxII best decision ever made
Bought a three pack for this deer season to try out. I honestly have to say: I'm really impressed with this broad head, they fly just like a field point and hit like a jackhammer. No opening up issues two deer harvested with same broad head and no sharpening required, all I can say is WOW!!! I will be putting this broad head on all my arrows.

Rated 3 out of 5 by GaBigBoy Nice but dont fly like field points or rage
They are cool design, but they shoot consistently to the right of my field points. More sturdy than rage but no practice heads stink. Put black electrical tape on it and it will work for a few shots until it breaks and new head goes flying out of control into dirt and now only 2 heads left worth shooting. Need to offer practice heads to buy or give 1 free like rage does.

how many bands come with the package, and how many bands are in a REPLACEMENT band package?
Answers
A:
there is a total of 6 band in the package of broad heads and if I recall right you get about 10 to 15 in the replacement package.A:
6 with the broadhead 18 in replacement packA:
there is nine in the package with the broadheadsAnswers
A:
what works great for me is to use rubber bands ment for braces.A:
You shouldn't. I would consider experimenting with a target before hunting.Answers
A:
Yes they will, since the small bleeder blades will swing back upon impact, then on the other side of the bleeder blades are the bigger blades.A:
You should because its a SWHACKERDetails:
are they better than muzzyAnswers
A:
Yes they will open up on a 45lb bow. They do a bigger cutting diameter than the muzzy and have better penetration.A:
I don't know if they will "Always" open on #45. But, I know they recommend that your bow be set to 50# and above.A:
I think they would work fine. My only complain is the low quality bands that hold the blades. They really expand and do a great job of penetration and killing, at least on turkeys. I haven't tried them on deer, yet. I will this fall.A:
I'd buy a set and shoot them into a foam target with a thin towel over it......that'll give you a more definite answer. I'd say probably just because of the design, but i know mechanicals and 45lb bows are a little tabooDetails:
My son has the Diamond Fugitive and he wantedto know if all of the blades would always deployAnswers
A:
I would have to say yes, I'm running a 62 lb with a 29 in draw. two white tails harvested with a complete pass through on both and both times I had full blade deployment.A:
Yes AlwaysA:
I shoot at 64 pounds. I havenever had them malfunction. They have lways opened.A:
without a doubt, Like i told another guy, to prove it before going in the field buy a set and shoot them into a foam target with a thin towel over itA:
I shoot a PSE X-Force set at 60lbs and have not had a problem with mechanicals.Update to my review: After shooting a doe with this broad head I successfully harvested a buck at 35 yards with the SAME HEAD a few days later! As always, the arrow flew perfectly, blades deployed perfectly. Entrance and exit wounds were very impressive. The deer was making a rub when he was hit, he jumped, took three steps and stumbled down a small slope before falling over for good. He went maybe 15 yards. Arrow was buried 6" in the ground and the blades are still perfect after two deer, complete pass throughs and into the ground both times. Amazing. I will never use another head.
These can be mechanically challenging to assemble and it is my suspicion that those who claim to have trouble with the blades not opening or breaking and falling apart are simply not installing the head properly. READ the instructions, align everything correctly and they are magic! The pic shows the ENTRANCE hole.

A:
Yes they will always deploy , its just a matter of Kentic energy to get a exit?on low pound bows with low kentic energy you have to match the power with the broadhead you will use
when in doubt check with the broadhead website for proper information
Answers
A:
Yes they will if you don't hit the shoulder bone. Cool story; the guy who made the Swacker broad heads is a rocket scientist, so there build to have the best aerodynamics.A:
I have had pass throughs up to about 35 yards with the same set up it really just depends where you hit em thoughA:
I would think so. My buddy shot a Mully at about 30 yards with the 100 gr (smaller blade one), broadside shot as it was silhouetted on a ridge. The arrow passed clean through his vitals and flew another 100 yards over the ridge. He was useing a bow thats not nearly as fast as your setup.A:
I shot doe with clean pass through using shwacker broadheads at 50yds. i shoot a 61# draw x-force axe 7. I dont think you will have any problem.A:
i shoot about 65lbs and it had no trouble passing through my deer and a quarter of the way through a treeA:
YES IT WILLA:
You need to know your bows true Feet Per Second “FPS or velocity” and the true weight in grains of your arrow that’s including insert, fletchings, nock, and broadhead. Then input them into this formula (velocity x velocity x total arrow weight (in grains) divided by 450,240) and it will give you your KE. The Package recommends a minimum of 60 KE. That’s not to say you need that for a pass through on a deer as they are have a thin hide and a well placed shot could result in a pass through. So to be on the safe side if you end up with KE of 60 or higher you are good to go on that pass through you are looking for.Q:

would this broadhead get enough penetration for someone whos pulling a 50 lb draw weight?
Answers
A:
My bow is set to 50 lb I don't alway get a good pass through but I get good penetration. If I get a good hit in the ribs I always get a good pass through unless my arrow hits bone. It still puts them down.A:
It was plenty for me at 61#. Shot doe with clean pass through at 50 yds. I think its design allows for maximum penetration. First cut with short blades then finsihes with 2" cut.A:
My 11 year old kid is pulling 45# and knocking em down with a clean pass throughA:
Sure would. Im only pulling 60 and I have gotten near complete pass throughs. If my little bro can kill one with a 40# recurve with these you should have no issues.A:
I wouldn't see why not. Im shooting 60 lbs and it opens great and whats cool is that they open just after hit. make sure ur using a decent arrow weight to get some kinetic behind it.Answers
A:
No need for one you just use some electrical tape where you would put the band so that the blade does not deploy.A:
No, I practice with them and replace the blade before hunting season. This works great for me.A:
swhacker does not make a practice tip but it says on the package to wrap a small piece of electrical tape around the ferrule between the tip and the wing blades. this may add a little weight but will allow you to practice without the blades coming open and using a bunch of the o-ringsA:
No, they recomend you use electrical tape over blades to practice. Kind of lame. They do fly good though.A:
it flies the same.....trust me, i chose the swhacker after buying a bunch and testing out their flight patterns.......it is right on target with FT'sA:
The package says to use the broad head, just wrap electrical tape around the blades.
A:
No, they do not have one listed on our web site or their web site.Details:
Or other recommendations please.Answers
A:
They work fantastic on turkeys. They fly, penetrate, and expand very well. Don't like the cheap bands used ot hold the blades in, but other than that they work extremely well on turkeys.A:
i'd think you'd ruin a lot of meat, but they'd definitly kill whatever you are shooting.A:
they will drop a turkey my son and i shot 2 yesterday and they just fell like we had 12 guage shotgunsA:
if your just for spurs beards and fans its ok but it wil tear a hole in it good shot placement maybeA:
This broadhead has taken several birds for my family. It flies like a fieldpoint and groups just the same. If your aim is on the tom is as good as on the table.
