Comment which broadheads we should test out this fall!
Mega meats!!!!
Any of the Crimson Talon line up. Maybe the 125gr Battle Axe.

I like that you showed the bad shot and owned it. There are a lot of guys out there that claim to have never ever loose a deer, and those guys are full of it.
I lost my first deer last year and it SUCKS
A fixed blade I like is the zwickeys and they work great I believe there 175 grain
Absolutely the best broadhead video comparison ever. Great work.
Wow, thank you!
@@BowOnlyOutdoorsyes great video! Would enjoy hearing you discuss why you rank things in the order you do: blood trail, penetration, time/distance to death.
Personal experience...
I've been bow hunting since about 10. I'm almost 70 now. I have used these mechanical broadheads and have never liked there results. I'll stick with a fixed broached thank you. But I am impressed with your results. Keep on enjoying the outdoors sir.
@@anthonyjbargeman5280 we are in the same boat 😉 I have even tuned my arrows with magnus killer bees fixed blades for my R29x cross bow. That took a lot of work and time, but I have both target points and the broad heads hitting exactly the same spot!! Good luck 👍🏻 Season is coming up soon
Great review with the highs and lows as a bow hunter. Respect for showing not optimal shots and the TRUE of bow hunting.
We spent about 3 seasons doing pretty much this exact same testing. There were 6 of us in the test. We, as a group came to find that the swhacker broadhead did the best for us overall. We have all stuck with the swhacker for about 8 yrs now still have a tremendous amount of confidence in them. Even though both deer were recovered due to perfect shot placement, we had two killed by rages that we could not find any evidence of the broadhead expanding.
i agree, i think i have tried every head on the market over the last 45 years or so, the original 1.75" swhacker has always come out on top for me.
I jad GREAT luck with the NAP CROSSFIRE. (The spinning one piece). But, they dropped them. Guess somebody dodnt like them. ???
💯💯💯 Swhackers, simple, affordable, readily available, easy to tune and works great!
Agreed the swhacker, it flies straight and it drops what it hits.
As long as they make Shwacker's I'll never shoot anything else!
The film job on that 8 point was incredible work for self film! Love to see content like this!
Possibly esophagus with that grim reaper shot would be my guess
Came here to say this. Almost definitely what happened there.
wanted to post the same
I concur
Agreed, I've had that happen a few times
Agree
The dead meat was incredibly impressive
Might consider giving them a try this year after this video.
Ive had great luck with the dead meat 100 grain broadheads. Im definitely a fan.
@@BradThorsnburyhighly recommend the dead meats! I used the megameats 3 years ago, and it was too much carnage 😂 cost me an extra $100 to stich up for my mount.
I’ve used the G5 Deadmeat since they came out (started off life as the T3 in 2010, then became the Deadmeat in 2017) harvested many, many deer with them over the last 14 years. I have never had a deer go more than 100 yards with a double lung and no more than 45 yards with a heart shot. Stopped using Rage because my friends and I, all lost deer to Rage broadheads - didn’t appear that the rage’s opened up, but I know people like you that have great success with them and I’m happy for you and wish that I did, but can’t afford to feed the coyotes, too many of them, plus I enjoy the meat too much and need to fill my freezer.
@@odysseybmxguyI used mega meats for the last two years and it’s ridiculous 😂 switching to the dead meats this year
Grim Reaper. Watch em drop
Been rifle hunting for 25 years but getting into bow hunting this year. Just bought G5 Deadmeats this week. Every review I've seen shows these kinds of results. They're absolutely razor sharp out of the package, which makes more difference than anything else. The best designs won't get penetration or blood trails if they're not sharp.
Best broadhead video on the internet! Thank you sir! Never tried a mechanical broadhead but thinking about trying the rage chisel tip now!
I’m using the G5 Deadmeat this year for my expandable and the G5 Montec for my fixed blade.
Same I used the dead meat last year to get my first bow deer I shot a doe and a buck on public land and I went on a elk hunt and I used the Montec but sadly didn’t get one but I’m going back this year for whitetail Im going to test the megameats and elk I’m going to stay with the montecs
This is the best broadhead test video out there. Nothing better than real testing in the field. Thank you for this. The main conclusion seems to be that shot placement is the main factor. Lots of good broadheads out there these days
One of the best videos I've ever seen. Very informative and very real. Thank you for adding the bad shots too!
This is the best broadhead review video out there right now. That g5 deadmeat performance has me trying one this season.
BEST 10 SECOND INTRO EVER!!!!!
I’d love to see another one of these videos after this season with new broadheads. Try an annihilator (fixed blade that punches holes), mega meat, beast broadhead, etc.
QAD Exodus too
@@rileym2678megameats are nasty I shot rages for years and switched last year after my buddy had blown through elk 2 years in a row with them. I shot one whitetail last year with one and got the same result he did with the dead meat just better. Huge entry and exit holes amazing blood trail penetration is insane for the cut size I had a hard time finding the arrow buried in the ground behind her. And she only went about 15 yards. I’ll never shoot anything else.
Hey man, I appreciate you taking your opportunity for so many tags to be able to do such a cool side-by-side test. Thank you for the video.
I admire the fact that you are using a heavy enough arrow set up for mechanical broad heads.
Definitely makes a difference 👍🏻
I’ve been very impressed with the G5 MegaMaeats
The mega meat broadheads work amazing. My absolute favorite tips
First year using them last year. Shot an antelope at 63 yards and got a clean pass through. I could not find the arrow, and he went about 100 yards. Shot a buck with them at 32 yards and got another pass through and the arrow way laying 15 yards behind where he was standing he went roughly 70 yards. Both painted a red carpet for a blood trail.
Hands down the best broadhead test video ever!
Love ya honesty mate. Admitting when things didn't go as planned. Kudos to you.
A couple of those shots just show me why I switched to fixed blades. I discovered I was shying away from the shoulder too much for fear of not penetration. (Not to say the shots were bad, just wondering what a fixed blade would have done with them.)
You appear to be a great shot though and I enjoyed your video.
My thoughts exactly. My best blood trails were with montec g5 fixed heads. I really don't understand the logic behind picking something with a coin toss rate of breaking or deflecting.
Great video. Nice to see the different broadheads in action but on top of that, you proved what alot of people say that its not the broadhead, it the shot placement. Any broadhead will kill a deer if its put in the right spot. You even showed the less than perfect ones that worked and didnt work and Kudos for showing the lost ones and owning the shots.
I went from rage chisel tip to a sevr 1.75 and they basically make the same hole but the sevr gives me more confidence because it’s not gonna bend or break
It's a great head but it's a stretch to say it won't bend or break
@@scottpaulsen2649 I harvested 2 with the SEVR last year, nice mature doe and good buck. I had a blade bend on the buck, but not break. The tip is still tip top shape. I really like the SEVR
seems slightly unfair to say "these fixed blades" when you only tested one and its the smallest one out there, but the video is super awesome and i loved it
I use the QAD fixed blade and it is deadly. Shot a doe and it fell 10 yards from the shot. I like fixed blades but I’m glad you used these expandable blades I’m learning about them and maybe switching up.
QAD fan as well
Exodus QAD for Elk, Mule Deer, and Whitetail for me.
Great video, definitely showing real life scenarios. Like to see you test the Beast in this way. Thank You
Finally...a PRACTICAL APPLICATION test of broadheads rather than targets and ballistic gell. Awesome video! I use crossbow, but this will apply just the same. Thank you
I’ve been a Muzzy guy my entire 20 years bow hunting, but that G5 is awesome!
So glad to hear you say that if you shoot expandable broadheads use enough poundage / draw weight to get the job done. I have seen many expandable only penetrate a couple inches. Only wounding the animal. Personally, I am a fixed blade guy and have been shooting the 100 gr three blade Muzzy with excellent results both in by compound ( I shoot 63 lbs) and my crossbow. But I limit my shots to 35 yards anyway. I've been bow hunting for over 50 years now and used many different broadheads and have seen my hunting buddy's usage and results also. the 100 gr Muzzy seems to always work. Thank you for a great video it was very interesting and informative. And by the way, we all have made poor shots, we just do our best not to.
The only broad head out of those I've used is the Swhacker. I've killed a younger doe at about 20 yards with the 3" and it hit that deer like a freight train. She jumped spun around and dropped on the spot. Arrow went clean through and was sticking in the ground about 4". Then I killed a big mature 9 point using another 3" Swhacker and and didn't need to track it either. Definitely slowed my speed down and had a little more arch in the arrow flight because of the weight but supper accurate and deadly. This year I got some of the new 1.5" Sevr hybrids and am going to give them a try. I've heard really good things about those G5 dead meats and your results speak for themselves.
I was so stoked for your buck! Taking care of the does and you are rewarded with a beautiful buck!!!!
Best broadhead video I have seen in a long time. Well done!
I’ve had the same success with the Rage chisel tip. Ole Reliable
Great video! Really cool to see the different heads in action. Glad to see the G5 do well because I had bought some last year but never had the chance to try them out.
Try the magnus black hornet. I’ve used tons of mechanicals and had great success. But that black hornet remains my favorite.
I have g5 dead meats and non-ser Black Hornets in my quiver. Both killers!
I love the black hornet but it did me wrong last year switching back to the swhacker
The only thing I took away from this that I didn’t already really think I knew is that there were a few shots here that would have been better served with a fixed blade. Not hating on expandables at all. I shoot them also. But certainly drives home the shot placement is king no matter what head you’re using.
Incredible video and very honest showing the highs and lows of bowhunting. I hope you’ll consider the Crimson Talon Croc for your next test it’s a very affordable, tough & sharp single bevel with a low profile that flies amazing. Thank you for this, God bless
This is one of the best ive ever seen on a broad verry nice job .we all make bad shots ty.
One of the best videos with real results RUclips needs more of these
Would like to see the megameat, I’ve shot 3 bucks with them and watched all of them fall within 100yds with absolutely insane blood trails
Not trying to go full ranch fairy or anything but since I bumped arrow weight up to 600 grains and switched to hand sharpened black hornet ser razors, I haven’t lost an animal even on bad shots. It’s actually breaking bones and turning the insides into soup.
Those Black Hornets are something to behold. They’re just vicious!
try the Magnus black hornette serrazor
That'll never work!
This was a great video. Fun to watch, extremely informative, great work man. Hoping to see more like this from you in the future!
This is an AMAZING video!!! Thanks for the time and effort
Great video! I especially like the emphasis on making sure your bow has the energy for a mech! A perfectly tuned and balanced bow/arrow is essential for any setup.
My evaluation is based on penetration on the bad shots. Any broadhead will work on double lung/heart shot. I’d like to see you test a single bevel. I also believe blood trails are unpredictable.
Blood trails come from severed arteries, and the amount of blood is mostly unrelated to the type of broadhead used. Quantity of blood on the ground has mostly to do with the random probabilities of arrow placement and subtle differences in pathway through the body. Nervertheless, hunters will continue arguing over which broadhead produces the best blood trails.
Was about o say exactly this. Bigger blades just mean more chance of hitting major arteries. Lower shots generally will leak more blood
Some broadheads will severe more arteries than others with quality shots. Also some broadheads are gonna leave bigger entry and exits for that blood to escape. That’s how different broadheads produce better blood trails lol
Hands down one of the best texts I have seen. Thank you for doing this
Great job with real world results. I know you were somewhat disappointed with the fixed blade head, but I've always liked Magnus Stinger Buzzcut 4-blade and Black Hornet 4-blade. You may want to give one of them a try. Thanks again for your great videos.
Great video! I’ve done similar tests over the years. I shoot about 10 each year. I much prefer Swhacker #207. The straight blades are easy to sharpen. The rage have exposed sharp edges and can open in quiver. Sevr good design but very difficult to replace blades. Slick Trick easy to sharpen and sharpest out of package. Great fixed head.
Really liked those g5s. You should Try a fixed head with a bigger cut like the qad exodus or the magnus black hornet. Regardless great video, great deer and great shot! Love all your guys’ content
John Lusk is the Broadhead testing GURU....Exodus, Iron Will, and Sevr are top of the heap
I had a grim reaper do the same exact thing! Heart shot a buck a few years back and took him over an hour to die because the grim reaper whitetail special never opened. Will never use them again.
My personal experience is that Grim Reaper Carnifour and Sevr 1.5 is the 2 best broadheads on the market. The Sevr for how they fly and the Carnifour for the absolute carnage that they make.
Different heads are a trade off but I’ve found a good hand sharpened fixed blade typically puts em down faster on average. They are not sure what happened and typically run very little then tip over.
True hunter! Thank you for putting so much time and effort into this video!
I am a fixed blade guy, great video nonetheless 👍sweet 8pt.grim reaper performance is exactly why I don’t use mechanical broadheads the rage has let me down many times on seemingly perfect shots. Not here to bash my fellow hunters…. Just my opinion after 41 years of successful hunting, win lose or draw every hunt is successful in my mind.💪
Didn’t goooo 20!! Great video cool to see
Now this is a Broadhead test.
Just bought some of those dead meat g5 v2. Can't wait to try them out
I was turned onto Iron Will broadheads. Kinda spendy but totally worth it. Amazing warranty. Check em out
The New Sevr hybrid Head is one I want to test.
Great video.
This video is the real deal. Thanks for posting.
Man havent seen anyone test broadheads like this. Great video with very good information. Jeep up the good work and good luck this season.
Absolutely great video! Great job bro.
Swhacker for the win
I just picked up the G5 megameat cant wait to try it after watching what the deadmeats can do
Rage Hypodermic and NAP Killzone have always been my favorite. Ive tried Swackers, Ramcats, hybrids and other expandables but to me having a 2" entrance hole is super important. Simple test..... Try pushing the broadheads through cardboard by hand and you can feel the resistance each one takes. The more resistance, the least penetration. Great video! Nothing like real world testing. Thats what makes good hunters.
I will always shoot standard slick tricks. They have not failed me yet!🤞
Shot placement is key! I’ve been bow hunting since 1990 and have tried more broad heads than I can count! I’ve learned that sharp fixed blade broad heads do better over all. Better penetration , better flight / accuracy and is way more forgiving on quartering shots. That’s just been my experience!
First things first. This was a great video Micha.
Second, the grim reaper and swhacker. Since they are over the top style mechanicals the entrance will be small because the blades need a bit of time to open up in the animal.
I live in Wyoming and I know several straight up killers that adore the grim reaper pro 3 blades and they're used for antelope up to bison.
Lastly, shot placement shot placement shot placement! You nailed it. They all suck if the arrow isn't placed under the spine, above the brisket, behind the shoulder, and ahead of the liver.
I've never had any luck with Grim Reapers. I once has a really bad gut shot on a deer and the arrow didn't even pass through.
One of my take-aways from just about any archery hunt involving myself or other's videos, is that animals react to the sound of the shot, drop, roll away, or both probably 80-90% of the time. But truly, there is just no way to predict if, when, or how much they will react. A rough formula is to use the 1/4 of a second reaction time rule. If we stay within that rule regarding arrow speed verses shot distance, our positive arrow impact percentages will go up. So the question is, how far is our arrow down range in 1/4 of a second? A recurve bow shooting 150 fps would be 37.5 feet or 12.5 yards. A compound shooting a heavy arrow at 250 fps would be 62.5 feet or about 21 yards. A high speed crossbow shooting a light arrow at 400 fps would be 100 feet or about 33 yards. One season I shot at 4 deer. 2 doe exploded at the sound of the shot and dropped like lead balloons before impact. 2 bucks stood there like statues and never moved at the shot sound at all. But, thru the years, most of the time, they do move before impact. Keep the shots close and aim low.
Man I love you guys videos the best!
I would also like to add that probably the most important part of any broad head is by far the Sharpness 🙂
Their ability to stay sharp is just as important, if not more so. It matters more how sharp a broadhead is when it enters the thoracic cavity than when it’s in the quiver. The quality of the steel makes the difference.
@@gsnicholas8522 Exactly! You get it!! Growing up I wouldn’t even hunt with my buddies unless they let me sharpen their broad heads. Too many long blood trails. I found out that they were taking a practice shot with their b h and then go to the woods 🤷🏼♂️🤷🏼♂️🤷🏼♂️that made me sick- not very humane either
Long story short,we do not hunt together anymore Good luck this season 👍🏻
Switched from Muzzy to Grim Reapers. Haven’t had a deer go 30 yard with them. Had same thought when I saw the entry…. But the exit hole and the amount of blood produced is more than most. Won’t change from them!
Swhackers are designed to open the main blades inside the body cavity.
Really like the G5 dead meats.. One of my favorites
You got me at the Gore disclaimer. Great video!
Great video man
I'm currently hanging up the phone with my best friend so he can watch this video!
We are outdoor hunting fanatics that are the "Looking for the better mouse trap" Nuts!
Love this video! My broad head I am taking into the woods this fall is the SEVR hybrid 1.5 and I can't be more excited to further my experience with this latest advancement. We are all looking for that broad head that both make fantastic blood trails and has superior penetration. Great video and I appreciate your perspective.
Absolutely love this video keep testing broadheads!
I think it would be cool to see you use singal bevel broadheads like kudu or iron will
I use 2 different types of mechanical broadheads for my hunting. For my compound bow I use the NAP Bloodrunners and for my crossbow I use the NAP Double Crossfire. Both very good broadheads. Never been a bug fan of the rage broadheads because I just couldn't seem to get them to open up properly. They were the 3 blade Haven't tried the 2 blades rages yet. I do however like the hypodermic mechanical broadheads and am thinking about trying them soon. Great video. Very informative and educational. Keep up the good work
Great broadhead video! I think it’s so helpful to show actual results on whitetail. Would be great to have you provide even more post shot detail on which organs/blood vessels you hit. Please do it again!!
If you are worried about not having enough energy, so you compensate with heavier arrows, that means you should probably just shoot a fixed blade.
Swhacker and Rage chisel tip for me. Thanks for the review man.
I really enjoy the G5 megameats. This season i will be trying out the grim reaper whitetail specials.
Great video. I appreciate the honesty and showing the bad shots as it shows to newer hunters (myself included) that you don't always get a good hit like you intend. You strike me as a very empathetic person and the quiet nature of you videos are calming similar to bob ross in a way. Look forward to seeing new videos! Will sub :)
Impressed that Slick Trick went through the offside shoulders on the exit. I’ve had Sevrs bounce off opposite shoulder
I’ve blown through both shoulders on a doe with the slick tricks. I love em. I get decent blood with em too but of course short placement. I had some lower quality blood trails with em from running fast but they fly great and penetrate very well
Most over the top broadheads don’t open till the head enters the cavity. That’s why I prefer rear deploying broadheads
Exactly what I experienced from Sevr, if you don’t get a pass through good luck finding blood because the entry hole is needle size
@@HSeaward3sevr is a rear deploying head. People like them because if you don’t get a pass through you still have a 1.5-2 inch hole on entry (depending on model). Forward deploying would be like your swhacker, which if I’m being frank I’d take over rear ones. Mainly because with my setup at 80lbs I’m almost always getting pass through with my micro shaft arrows (victory VAP).The one time I didn’t I went t through 2 shoulder blades due to a very poor shot. But nonetheless dead deer
If I’m going through anyway I rather not chance the idea of a rear deploying blade breaking off before it even hits vitals. I use that energy to open my virgin blades 😊
Never seen someone shoot so many heart shots😮 u need to do competition archery 🏹
You should check out iron will. They're expensive but the build quality really is second to none.
🎯Excellent data sir, back in the day with lesser speeds and fixed blades I had some penetration problems, with 400 fps range crossbows (now legal here), Swhacker (#207) 100 grain 2" cut, 390 grains total weight, works good for me, always expands & always exits, many deer down. -W. Liggett
Great video, very informative
Great video. I go back and forth between the grim reaper whitetail specials and rage no collar.
Nice Vid!!! More of these!
I had same issues with fixed broadheads. Even with the 1.5" Swacker 252, I get no blood trails and hard to track but still find dead deer.
The killzone and shwacker 207 broadheads leave the biggest blood trails , more than any other broadhead I have ever used.
Not the tuffest broadheads but straight deer and elk killers with 400 grain's plus arrow and 70 lb bows.
