If you're tuned properly, I'd say absolutely for deer and most hogs.  If you get on a big boar, you'd probably be better off with an Interceptor or Tiger Shark.  I keep a couple of Interceptors in my quiver just for that reason.

Awesome job, and awesome review of the shark series broadheads!
I may have to get me some of those and start using them? Are they hard to sharpen? I'm pretty good as sharpening Snuffers, but the curve design makes me nervous about sharpening them, just wondering how much more of a trick there is to sharpening that curve?

I wish I had someplace to hunt hogs, I wanna hunt hogs so bad I just can't stand it! Your all's stories and pictures don't make it any easier for me either, that's for sure! Keep em coming!   :thumbsup:    :clapper:

Congrats Chris.   It is extra cool to see this after being there in RC's swamp.   :-)  It feels like I was hunting with you.  Brought back great memories.

I do look forward to hunting with you in the future too as RC has invited me back. I will take the fool up on this :-)

And add me to the list of your video students.  I use your youtube lesson to sharpen my tiger sharks.
