Has anyone shot this BH ? I have watched the video of barrel killing but wondered what the end result out of a deer would be.

just in target shooting. It's accurate but I had to tune it a bit.
Parker Safari Classic (150lb) Hawke MAP scope + 400 grain arrows = 326 fps
2008 Diamond Black Ice - 29in draw, 70lbs, "no peep", HHA Optimizer Plus = 249 fps with 429 grain arrows
2011 Telson (Scorpyd) 130lb - 19.75in powerstroke, + Hawke SR scope = 390.2 fps with 400 grain arrows
2011 TAC 10i - (vids coming shortly)
2010 TAC 15 (used) - (more vids coming shortly)

Have shot it and killed 3 deer this past year with it, 2 does and 1 buck. Devastating exit hole, short trailing jobs. Great heads IMO. Forgot to mention, shot out of a predator and DTM 375, both had no issue with flight.
Its not the kill, its the thrill of the chase

I love them, I shoot then with me Predator crossbow and have yet to see anything i couldnt get a complete passthru on. Only downside I have had with them is the body of them is aircraft aluminum which is plenty strong enough for a broadhead but if you end up with your broadhead in a tree consider it a loss, because the body will be bent or twisted because it becomes weak once the blades are deployed. But, I still love them, huge exit holes on downward shots from an elevated stand, 2 1/4" exits from hunting from the ground.

Well thats good to hear a few good reports. I am looking forward to using the smaller cut swhacker this fall to see how they do on deer. So I might have to add the larger one to my box of goodies for future hunts.

I bought some but too me it looks like it would take a lot of energy for them to open. I'll stick with my Slick Tricks........
