[Jayrod]

Thxs curt I want penetration and I know its all about shot placement but also was how easy to sharpen they are and there's lots of fellow tradgangers saying this so I think I am gonna order!!

I love VPA heads. Shot the 2 amd 3 blade heads with my compound. Both vented and non vented.
Penetrators sharpen up nicely on my kme broadhead jig. For in the field I used a cheap $15 Smiths multi tool deal from Scheels. Its yellow, has a flashlight, compass, carbide and ceramic sharpener, a fire starter, and possibly a screw driver?

Make sure to use the carbide sharpener as the ceramic has a different bevel.

Going to spring for a croc stick and leather strop just to see if I can get them even more sharp!

Both vented and non vented fly beautifully. Best broadhead on the market in my opinion.

Thxs Jake I appreciate it I got all fields covered I just ordered both 2 and 3 blade can't wait to try em on a spring gobbler!!

You will love them I'm sure. Very high quality heads for sure!

Curt I mean only that if you use some alluminum shafts that are 11/32" or larger in diameter or carbons like the Arrow dynamics or grizzly sticks the ferrule of the broadhead will be smaller then the shaft which leads to a sharp angle created where the broadhead joins the shaft. This abrupt bump so to speak creates more drag than when the broadhead's ferrule is larger or the same size as the arrow shaft. That's all, but the amount of drag increase can be substantial depending on how much larger the shaft is then the ferrule.

Maybe in bone, but in flesh the blades would have cut a way bigger hole before the shaft and I would think it wouldn't effect it very much at all....

I hate to get too far off the subject of the broadhead question,but since you brought this up,I always wondered how they figured that a smaller diameter shaft gave better penetration in game when the broadhead is up front cutting a path?

I agree. Once the hole is cut it is not a problem at all.
