the fisrt one is a quartering away entrance hole on a red hartebeast. the shuttle t burried into his off shoulder and crushed it. the next is an entrance hole pic on a kudu. and on th elast picture you can see the hole on the springbuk. this was the first time i had used thease broadheads and i love them. 4 of us used thease broadheads and i was the only one using 100grains,everyone else used 125. they preformend awsome. they pentrate very well,fly great,and the blades will not fall out!!!we shot 23 animals using thease heads and lost 2,due to bad shots. im sold on thease heads!:wink:

I been waiting on these. :) Nice pics. Were you happy with the sharpness of the heads? Sure does leave a heck of a hole. That first pic looks to be a quartering shot. Good job! :thumbs_up

thanks, yes, i'm very pleased with how sharp they are. it was amazing to see how much bigger the hole was than the accual broadhead. thease heads penetrate awsome. my friend and i both were shooting 60lbs. and a27inch draw switchback. we went though everything we shot, except for my red hartebeast but i shattered the off side shoulder. the blades will NOT fall out, and they are very strong. out of 23 african animals shot with thease, only one blade broke, and that was because a gemsbuk was hit dead in the shoulder, and when it was running eventually one of the bladestip broke. the next best thing about them is the blades are replaceable. im sold on the heads!!:wink:

Sounds like a great head for sure. I only have about 10 different ones already so I might as well try these along with some Slick Tricks. :)

bukhuntr, i can tell you what ive seen between the 2. before africa, i had only shot wac'ems, ive shot quita few deer and antelope with them, and i really like them, but i dont like the blade strength on the wac'ems. they are decent but when the blades hit much bone or rib, the blades can bend or brake. you dont have that problem with shuttle t's. the shuttles have a little bigger cut and even though it is not much, the holes are way bigger than what ive had from the wac'ems. i like both heads but i think i like the suttles a little more, but i will use both on antelope and deer this year and see my results! i need to dig back in my coputer and find some more pictures, i have some of wacems as well!-dylan:wink:

awesome

dylan, you were right. the shuttle t's are awesome. took a big 200+ 10pt this year and the t blasted right thru it. deer was down within 25yards. no damage to head or blades. will be in my quiver from here on out.:darkbeer:

penetration was awsome on everything. my buddy and i were each shooting 60 lbs and a 27inch draw and we shot through everything except my red hartebeast,it crushed in the the offside shoulder and stuck in it. the blade design blows right through them. i also shot a lot of deer with them this year and blew threw them all with shuttles,and my friend shot a big elk at 30 yards with 60lbs,and blew right threw it.:wink:
