Would like to see more fixed blade broadheads
SEVR baby! Just bought 7 robustos for all my deer n turkey for 10 years. What distance were you doing gel test at?
Would the ravin broadhead be good with a compound bow?
New test for 2022 The G5 deadmeat crossbow 3 blade 100gr 1 1/2in cut, Grim reaper X-bow rt 3 blade 100gr 1 1/2in cut, Rage hypodermic crossbow 2 blade 100gr 2in cut and Muzzy Trocar HBX Crossbow 4 blade hybrid 1 5/8in cut. Those are some of the ones that say they're good for 400 fps+. All of these brands have a good reputation and I'd be interested to see a head to head test.
I’d love to see the annihilater broadhead make it into one of these tests
Sevr are bad ass
Wow, didn't know Josh Honeycutt was on the Hunt Stand team. Sure miss his realtree rut reports. As for the broadheads sevr robusto is definitely my choice been using the robusto ever since they came out with flawless results. Never used G5 though I thought hard to give them a try, my go to fixed blade as of now are ramcats.
What bolts do you use? I have the Tenpoint vapor 470 and I'm trying to figure out what spine and bolts I need to shoot the robusto
which Ramcat fixed blade?
@@Lakeman23 my favorite is the hydroshock, had a great blood trail plus he didnt go 30 quick and ethical kill
W/o even having to watch the video I knew the Striker would b the top broadhead in every category. It teminds me ofvthe Wac’Em broadheads I currently using. Good test.
Striker? Won every category? Nope, sorry you probably should go back and actually watch the video this time. It won best value. That'd be 3rd. Sevr #1
Lol guess u should watch the video
Lot of big name brands that would have been nice to see included here for comparison.
They're pushing the ones They're selling
Won't the broad heads perform differently under different arrows? I use the Stryker x right now and they are awesome so far
Do they fly like a field point?
Definitely need more fixed blades in the line up. Penetration is king, and the only fixed blade in the line up dominated. Deflection on quartering shots is a close second, which the fixed blade also dominated in.
But yet it finished 3rd. Penetration is key. That's why I shoot the Sevr. Regardless of the distance, I know I'm gonna get a full pass thru, exactly where I had my reticle. Unless you're practicing with your hunting broadhead, like you do with the Sevr, you just don't know
@@KTPGNS1 Also never had any fixed blade that shot worth crap from one head to another. The damage left by a Sevr Robusto or Swhacker on exit is incredible and they are super accurate from one head to another
I shot the SEVR's last year. They are great
How far out can you shoot group good with these? I’m shooting a Barnett whitetail hunter 2 350fps.
@@claytonbrown8911 That's a good question. I'm shooting a very similar bow, a Barnett Whitetail Hunter Pro. I have never practiced past 70 yards. But they shoot great to that distance. Two inch groups. I also hunt with Rage Hypodermics, and they fly very well also.
@@johngarnergarner6724 just bought some nc hypodermics… hopefully they do their job
How far can you shoot a good group with field points? There is a few good Sevr videos of guys shooting vertical bows shooting out over 100 yards. They are the most accurate I've ever shot by far, except maybe the Thorn, but being able to practice with the same head you use to hunt is gonna make a world of difference when it comes to putting the shot where you want it
@@KTPGNS1 I typically practice out to about 70 yards with my crossbow and get good groups. No more than fifty with my vertical bow. I've shot both the thorn and the sevr's. To me the Sevr's are more accurate than the Thorn's.
Rage,hands down.just my opinion.
I shot a doe last fall with the sevr robusto out of my crossbow. The broadhead opened in flight and all I found was a pile of deer hair. I also shot a buck with a different robusto but out of my 75lb compound bow. The hit was perfect, deer was broadside, but the arrow deflected and came out guts. Blood trail was excellent, recovered the deer the next morning. Both broadheads are unusable because of bent and chipped blades.
Jay, that's extremely surprising given this field test and also our compound bow broadhead field test (results to come), not to mention my personal experience hunting with the Robusto, which has been excellent. Sorry to hear you had such bad luck! -JD
Cut on contacts broadheads are the way to go.
I have to say I am shocked by that as well. I have been shooting the Sevr 2.0 for a year and a half now. I have never had 1 open in flight. Wondering if somehow maybe your o-ring was damaged. I'm also surprised by the deflection. Very rare with these pivoting heads. Glad you recovered her tho. I've put mine thru some abuse, including a couple scapula's and mine are all still pristine
@@KTPGNS1 I’m guessing he was shooting a Excalibur… the recurve limb crossbow produces extremely hard energy on takeoff. I have had several broadheads open out of mine… even ones that said aren’t supposed to. All I shoot is magnus black hornets now.. if and I mean if…I shoot an expandable it will be a swhacker 150 grain 3 inch hole there wicked.
Try the swat xbow cp mag it's great and shoot well up over 500 fps it like a rage and a shwacker all in 1 2" going in 2x2 going out 3.75"of cut.
What target was that
Swacker and Grim Reaper would easily perform just as well and through all the tests I’ve seen better. Personal experience my go to is Grim Reaper. Leaves a MASSIVE wound channel, very sharp out of the package, clean pass through and it doesn’t hurt it’s made and assembled in the USA. 🇺🇸
Killed 3 deer with the sevr last season. Couldn’t get one of them to close back up
When will the tenpoint broadhead results be posted ?
Here you go, this was first posted in late July...

Does the stricker x come with a practice head?
No practice head is included but replaceable blades are available.
Nice test! Throw some magnus in there I guarantee it would have stood up to the others. I tested the others already.
Magnus fan 4 life!
What about the BARNETT CROSS FURY EXTREME CROSSBOW BROADHEAD 100 GRAIN Mechanical with two blades and Bone Crusher tip @$24 for 3 head's
What range was accuracy test completed??
Our 2021 accuracy test was held at 45 yards; the goal was to make it an even 50 but due to Covid issues the indoor facility we had targeted was unavailable. Although not ideal, we feel our 45-yard range was still a very good test of the participating heads.
Has anyone shot a G5 M3 or Wasp Boss fixed broadhead with a 400 fps+ crossbow?
I use the rage crossbow broad heads in 125gr. And they lay the hammer down
What crossbow do you use
@@daytonsmith8910 Barnet C5. It's old but it does the job. I use it for deer and elk and bear
which rage?
@@Jesus351w the crossbow broadhead 125gr and lumenoc total weight is almost 400gr going 345fps
I will say I’m not a fan of expandable’s but last year I shot a deer with one out of the crossbow quartering to me blew through its left shoulder bone and right hip bone and exited never found the arrow that was devastating deer went nowhere
I was only using the aluminum ones to
Also y’all tested one fixed blade and were like yeah that’s the winner 😂😂😂
Grim Reaper pro series. 4 pack with the same price as most 3 packs. 3 blade with no o rings or other crap. And they don’t have to be the “crossbow” broadhead. Just shot the regular head. WATCH’EM DROP !!!
)))----->
So why is all blades not weighed the same weight from the manufacture
It comes down to manufacturing tolerances.
My son’s name is Josh Honeycutt! We’ve gotta be related!
Shwacker crossbow broadhead would have won them all without breaking
A sooo
Noooo wayyy
Hahaha that's a good 1 tho!
My 3 blade G5 monotec kills deer dead....not surprising.
@Supercreech ......learn to shoot then.
Where is the Grim Reaper Broadhead that you didn't test where's the deadmeat Broadhead that you didn't test you didn't really test me broadheads that I'm really interested in using why would you leave the best broadheads out of your test
Don, sorry to hear your disappointment about those heads not being included. While there are dozens of heads out there, we did our best to choose a solid lineup that we felt were worthy contenders. We'll try to include a model from Grim Reaper next year. As far as G5, typically we only test one head from each brand, and as you saw G5 was included in this round. This is our first go at this particular field test, and we're already looking forward to next year. Thanks for the feedback!
As with all of our field tests we must weigh keeping them streamlined/manageable vs. a wide selection; know that our selection of test heads will rotate somewhat year over year, and so your votes to include a few new models are appreciated. Thanks for watching!
La
You know it's pretty bad when you do a Broadhead review and the only broadheads it was really worth looking at was the Raven Broadhead the rest of them are just no good in my opinion why would you not shoot good to high-quality broadheads if you're going to do a review
Junk need more fixed blades
Crossbows....why? Just why?👀👀👀👀👀
Why not?
@@michaelb2076 Until Bow company's quit making bow prices Outrageous this is here to stay im 6'7 and left handed very few Compound bows fit me and my crossbow doesn't kill any further than your compound.
@@loganroberson1347 I'm 6'4" with a 31.5" draw, I hear ya there. But still
@@michaelb2076 Yes i have a hoyt carbon spyder long draw and its completely max out and still not quiet there.
@@michaelb2076 , I understand your frustration and can see you have an appreciation for skill. Should we still be using only longbows then though? I agree, mostly anyone can pick up a crossbow and shoot it, but that's about where the easy stuff stops imo. You still have to practice good shot placement and put in the training to know how your bolt will act/fly especially between fixed and mechanical broadheads. A bad shot is a bad shot, and I think it's a little bit of bad practice to throw shade on other hunters for choosing something that may be more suitable for them, or for using a weapon with greater FPE and FPS, or adding scopes to assist in accuracy. at the end of the day, anything people are using legally to increase the efficiency/ethics of killing an animal should be accepted with open arms for the animals sake.
Some more food for thought, there is a lot more customization needed for a compound bow (draw weight, balancing, draw length, sight picture ect). Shooting someone else's compound bow could spell disaster, for both the animal and the person trying to lean to hunt..
Quick fun fact while I have ya here, the crossbow has been dated back to around 400 BC. I'm sure you've heard that a thousand times but it's still a very interesting fact in regards to this discussion.
Regardless, I respect your opinion and hope you have a great season no matter what your weapon of choice is. Shoot straight my friend!
