hammer4reel Posted September 25, 2018 Posted September 25, 2018 Just curious how many guys shooting Grim Reapers have changed over to the Pro Series. I have taken a lot of game with the Original two styles on the right. Last fall I used the 4 blade CarniFour . Just picked up some of the Pro series Whitetail specials. I really like the pro series heads better than the old style. No more blade cups. and the new point is set back a touch more to prevent the arrow from sliding the hide when entering and is crazy sharp. Odd thing is the Pro series actually cost less per head than the Regular reapers, except your buying a 4 pack instead of a three pack. . not on the rug 1
MGHunter66 Posted September 25, 2018 Posted September 25, 2018 Yes Dan i use them out of the xbow. Honestly they were the first expandable i ever bought, they were sold out of the xbow specific heads when i purchased. They are one nasty head and have had no problems out of the xbow. My Tornado does only shoot 330fps though. Can’t say how they would do out of something significantly fasterSent from my iPhone using Tapatalk hammer4reel 1 AWM

I really like them better overall, will be shooting the few dozen old ones I have up and changing over to these new ones Edited September 25, 2018 by hammer4reel MGHunter66 1

But I like the 3 blade better, seems to really put them down faster

LOVE THEM. 100 grain, 2 inch. https://www.grimreaperbroadheads.com/products/razortip?variant=15984425795 That's the head I shot for years, I think the new Pro series are built way better. No more blade cup , its set on the ferrule aready, and the tip is set back a little more, . I have a bunch of the old style to use up . The old style are 13 bucks a piece, the new Pro series are 11
nb6624 Posted September 26, 2018 Posted September 26, 2018 Razor cuts for me. Awesome heads. Never had a issue nmc02, hammer4reel and not on the rug 3

archer36 Posted September 26, 2018 Posted September 26, 2018 I would prefer the BH where the tips of the blades are furthest back from the point. It gives the point some penetration before deploying the blades. This helps on quartering shots.

As good as old styles were .the new head has improved it to the next level archer36 1
