Super helpful. I was planning on taking these on a late archery elk hunt, and now I’m rethinking. Good testing process.

A buddy of mine is using these as his primary deer roaches this year… he hasn’t stuck anything other than a broad head target with them yet… but he’s claiming they fly perfectly true to his field points and are penetrating deeper than the rage mechanicals he was using previously… he’s pretty sold on them for now

Like the testing showed: Light is excellent. Blades are extremely sharp. Opening is excellent. Cut size is excellent. All that helped them get a fairly high score and will take down a lot of animals.
Penetration is decent, largely boosted by the blades tending to close when they hit softer spots.
Blade durability is weak; one is the weakest of any mech on the market. With most hits on an animal, that won’t be an issue. With some, it will be a issue.
How all that affects anyone’s choice to use this head or not is up to them and their own personal needs/desires for what they want a broadhead to do.

Sir, I think I have been writing to you about the purchase of the HK 639 rifle under an email "Tt Jake." If this is you, then I am truly interested. I am just trying to verify identify. Tt Jake is asking for a cash transaction. No disrespect intended, Just trying to verify who I am talking to. Thank you. Respectfully. Dan

Hey my friend, I am returning to SA for a Cape Buffalo hunt in June 26. My outfitter has suggested Highveld but I have read some poor reports. Wondering how satisfied you were with your mounts from them? Thanks in advance.
Remember I will be at the ISE show in Denver Colorado for 8-12 January, and after the show I will be available for meetings anywhere in the USA I will traveling around to meet with old and new clients, let me know and we will set up a meeting!
