I don't have pics of bloodtrails, but have killed alot of critters with both the 1 1/8 and 1 1/4" vpa 3 blades. Both are great heads and do a great job. I don't have exact numbers, but of the hogs that I have killed, I would estimate that maybe 100-120 were using the standard vpa heads, and maybe 20 using the 1 1/4". Most of these were with custom heads that were sold by RAYZOR and aren't made anymore, and had a nice profile like the 250 grain, but were vented and could be had i 175 and 200 grain weights. I had consistantly better blood trails with the 1 1/4" heads, despite this being a fairly small sample size.
