i have a bunch of rage 2 baldes and like them. this year i decided to try the g5 tekan (black ones) and love them. they are a little smaller then the rage in cutting diameter but are 300 times stronger. i have killed one whitetail doe, one whitetail buck, one mule deer buck and one turkey with them this year. i did kill another turkey and another doe with a rage. after the turkey the broadhead was fine, after the doe (which i did hit in the shoulder) the head was junk. bent blades and ferrel was bent also. the whitetail buck i shot was quartered away, it went in through the lungs and exited through the shoulder. with the muley it went in around the heart and because him leg was back on the opposite side it exited through his leg. one blade did break but the ferrel was perfect. after all those animals taken with the head, i cant complain that one blade broke. so is bigger better? i guess that come down to personal opionion. if its going to cost me a head after every shot then no its not better.
