I don't use them, I shot them out of my compound bow and I did kill a deer with one, but I also shot a doe quartering away from me and the arrow richoceted off of her rib cage. When I inspected the arrow 1 of the blades was opened and had blood and hair on it, none of the others did. The arrow had 1 little splotch of blood on it about halfway up the arrow and it was on the same side as the opened blade. I could only think that if that was my only chance at a "buck of a lifetime" then I wouldn't have killed it so I switched broadheads.

I have been using them for two years and have taken six deer from 20 yards to 50 yards. No problems with opening on impact. Always received complete pass through and am able to watch the deer hit the ground. GREAT broadhead.
Just a note, any broadhead can richocet off a rib. Watch Uncle Ted and his bear hunt.

I use the Reaper, no question it works well. Have never had one not open. Took a turkey this fall with one as well. The turkey ended up with 4 brests (ha) man do they cut.
