Wac'em Broadheads

Postby bald9eagle » 02 22, 2016 •  [Post 1]

Anyone have any experience? I personally feel like you are splitting hairs on most fixed blade heads. I'm going to try to talk to the owner in the next few weeks and pick up some 125 grain. The company is a local one and my wife teaches his son so I'm going to support a local guy. :D

Fun fact...Summit Treestands, Hunter Safety Systems, and Wac'em Broadheads are all based less than an hour from my house. I've always thought it was cool because we live in small town Alabama.

Got a friend who uses them and really likes them. He told me they leave a good blood trail. He switched from the old muzzy 3 blade to them.

They look pretty dang devastating to me. Would also like to hear from folks who have used them and hear how they fly.

I've taken a few whitetail with a 4 blade 125g wac'em broadheads. Absolutely love them. Very sharp and strong. Shot 3 doe and a nice buck with the same arrow, broadhead, and blades. First 2 does complete pass thru stuck in ground third shot on the buck. Pass thru but the blades busted after the pass thru. Put new blades on it and it's good to go again. Left a great blood trail to boot. I wish I would have capitalized with them on my first elk this pass season. But that was my fault. I will definitely keep using them.

I have experience with the fixed blade. They fly great. Not what id call super durable - blades are likely a "1 use" but they do the job. Very similar to a G5 Striker. Here's one in an elk shoulder blade - actually held up pretty well (failed mercy shot)
