Dont have any pics but I shot a buck in IA 2 years ago with a 125 grain single bevel eclipse BH.  I was using a 38# Yew American longbow (turned out lighter than expected).  I shot the buck at 18 yards and hit the off side shoulder which prevented the pass through.  I was very impressed with the performance of these heads.  They did require a fair bit of sharpening out of  the box but thats been my experience with most BHs.
Hunt fair, hunt hard, no regrets.

I have been using them ever since they first came out. The Eclipse 145 gr. has put a lot of critters in my freezer. Last year they changed the grind and now they take no time to sharpen.
 
They are a strong well made broadhead. I can't find anything wrong with them.

I bought some because I can't get Magnus Journeymans anymore. I was impressed with the workmanship, and glad to find a good head with this profile. Nothing scientific here, I just like them.

Luke,

I've been shooting Eclipse broadheads for years with excellent results.  I have several pics of animals if you want to send me you email address.  The moose in my avatar was shot with an Eclipse broadhead...moose ran 70-80 yards and crashed.

I use them. Fatherinlaw shot them in Africa, no problems there. Blake Fischer will personally answer your emails.

Awesome stuff.
