Trophy Taker Ulmer Edge Broadheads 100 Grain Blk

This broadhead does its intended job as long as you make a decent shot. But that's the case with most any broadhead on the maket today. I took my very first archery deer this year with this broadhead. Went through bone and still did its job. I really like the fact that you can put this expandable broadhead into a practice mode with the set screw. But you will need to supply your own allen wrench to do so. It does not come with one. That's my only complaint. I had to go out and get the 0.05" allen tool before I could practice with it. This is usually the smallest tool in the allen wrench sets that are sold. My set was somehow missing this size though.

shot well, rubber bands are a pain, you can hear the blades shaking around in your quiver because they aren't tight. Shot an elk, no blood, searched for days, no elk. I normally use Spitfires and I think they are MUCH better for the price. More durable, 3 blade, great penetration. I have shot 2 elk and 2 deer, all dead within 100 yards with a fist size hole through them.

These fly better than a Rage, and I like the smaller cutting diameter since I shoot a lower energy, short draw bow.

I purchased these for use with a crossbow. Opening day for deer in Mississippi I put one of these broadheads through the middle of a large doe. Complete pass through with good red blood all along the arrow shaft. But that was it...not a drop of blood anywhere else. NO BLOOD TRAIL. My first experience with these and will be my last. I guess the entry and exit holes were so small they just closed up. Pretty sure the deer is dead somewhere which is the worst thing that could happen. I've still got two new ones for cheep???? Anyone???

They are correct in the advertisement. Low profile. Field tip accuracy. I really like how they secure the blades too. The little O ring works well. Even with my super fast Xbow, it flies true and doesn't open early. My problem with it is, that I've shot two deer this year with it. Blood trails were awful. Late Nov, I shot a decent 5 point. A little high on the shoulder but double lung. Blood trail was negligible. The entry hole was ok but the exit was just a knife like slit. Last week I shot a big doe with it. Same hit. Went through the shoulder on the left side and out the shoulder on the right. It went through bone like butter. You look at the two heads and even though they passed through bone, they look like they were shot at paper. The tips are in perfect shape. But again, the blood trail was crap. She didn't show a trail until she was 35 yards from the initial hit. She ran close to 100 yards before falling dead. Fortunately she ran on a trail that was a straight line away from me. I finally just started walking and walked up on top of her. She was laying on the exit wound. Had been down for an hour and half. Hardly any blood on the ground. Hardly any in the back of my truck either. Open that chest, it gushed. Its like the exit wounds reseal after pass through. I'm trying Reapers next. I've got 3 more of these.....I won't use em.

These are well made and accurate. Having never shot mechanicals on game I cannot attest to their performance yet.

One shot only then you have get new blades for sure and a new tip is a good idea. They are accurate but I'm not a fan of their durability. From a value perspective, there are better options out there. I've decided to go with Swhacker, their heads are more inexpensive, the blades are more inexpensive, their bands are more inexpensive and I've yet to have to replace a tip. They are every bit as accurate as the Ulmer Edge.

You might think I work for them after reading this but I don't. These heads hit exactly where my field tips hit. I shot 3 deer in 2012 with these. All three deer died within 100 yds. The heads expanded without flaw. First deer went 60 yds., second deer went 20 yds., third deer was hit a little too far back, and went 100 yds. All were complete pass-through! After watching dozens of deer killed on TV with the famous Rage, and seeing that very seldom do they pass through, these Ulmer Edge really amazed me. Plus, the blades are so strong, they don't even bend. I cleaned them off, sharpened them, and put them back on arrows and placed them in my quiver. I've experimented with different blades for 20 years. Now I'm done searching.
