goin on first bull moose hunt this fall and I know I have to hit the sweet spot for broadhead to work but I am thinking of going with the 125grain exodus any thoughts or suggestions would be great. what about rages???

125 gr. Magnus Stinger ( 2 blade ) make sure it is sharp. Main blade grinds that come from the factory are not sharp enough! The chisel points from the factory are OK however, the main grind needs finishing work IMO. Use one of the sharpening jigs available so the Broad Head remains balanced.

The very best hunting Broad Heads are Ed Ashby's ( the most expensive and worth it. )

I've used slick trick stds for elk for years. The Exodus will penetrate better, but only 3 blades versus 4. I don't think having 1 more blade makes that much difference.
If you hit a vital or slice a major artery, the sucker will be dead. Penetration is more important though, and that is why I choose the exodus.

I have also used steel force phats, and muzzy 3 blades. The Exodus penetrates the best of all, and are tough little suckers.

Another good one is wackem 3 blades for penetration.

The Exodus would be awesome on moose; it would be my first choice. I have taken Wildebeest, Gemsbok, Kudu, Bull Elk, and Bear with the Exodus. They have an incredible balance of cut size, penetration, flight, and durability.

Another vote for Exodus here.

I am blowing thru my broadhead targets with the Exodus Swepts.
The 2 or 3 models of Slick Tricks I shot before the Exodus didnt have the penetration that the Exodus are showing.

I would use the Exodus without a doubt. Very strong, flies well and very sharp. I have hunted moose 6 times and took my first bull with a 3 blade out of my longbow. I would also use a heavier arrow. Good luck.
