Grim Reaper

Fantastic mechanical broad heads. When used in conjunction with sighing in with the practice tips (sold separately), they are exceptionally accurate you will absolutely hit your target when properly sighted in. I have yet to have any form of malfunction in years of hunting, and every animal I have hit had died within 50 meters of impact. Maximum trauma, clean & ethical. They are a bit expensive, but, to me, well worth the money knowing they will drop the target.

I used these broadheads to harvest two deer this year. One was a high lung shot at 15yds and that deer made it about 100 yds which did not surprise me as it was a little keyed up when I took the shot. Decent blood trail once the lungs filled up to the hole.The other was a liver shot at 15yds. That deer only went about 40 yds with a blood trail I could see from my chair.I like the performance but do not consider them any more effective than the Muzzy 3-blades I was shooting before. As far as the accuracy goes they do not shoot to the same POI as my field points but are very consistent when I sight in after putting them on. They also shoot to the same place as the practice heads which is a plus. They were more consistent then the Muzzy heads in my faster crossbow.I did find both used heads with the blades closed but the Grim Reaper website explains that and has a couple of videos showing how the inertia of the blades closes them after they exit the animal. The holes in both deer clearly showed the blades were deployed.In terms of construction they are rather complicated with all the rings etc. but it is a solid design and allows for replacing blades which is a plus as well. NO bands but you have to be willing to deal with small moving parts and razor blades at the same time. The manufacturer does have some good how to videos on their site.No shoulder contact on either deer but there were broken ribs on both sides and the second bolt stuck about an inch into a tree about 20 yds behind the second deer. The head appears undamaged and will be used again with new blades.I am shooting a Horton Storm RDX, Black Eagle Executioner shafts, OmniBrite lighted nocks and Blazer vanes (avg. 451gr) at an estimated 350fpsIn summary this appears to be a solid product and I will keep using them.2020 updateHave used these for several years now and they continue to meet expectations. I have harvested multiple deer and turkeys with consistent performance.Two were recovered two with broken blades, one on a turkey that broke both legs but also one blade. The other on an 8pt that punched through the off shoulder. One blade was bent back to far it would not return to the slot. Still got complete pass through and the other two blades still work.Probably not the choice for heavy boned animals but they work great for medium game.Still shooting the Horton but have switched to Easton XX75 Magnum bolts/Alpha nocks/AAE vanes for a finished weight of 491gr @ 330fps

I purchases these for my crossbow as ot shoots around 400fps and my other mechanical broadheads are rated at under 400fps. I have uses Grim Reaper for my compound bow as well.These broadheads are amazing. I shot 3 deer this year with the same broadhead. There are no nicks in the blades, have not needed to sharpen and there has been no bent blades. My arrows shoot strait everytime and my kill distances ramged from 9 yards to 47 yards with no issues.These make a large exit wound. My first kill walked 20 yards and fe over. The longest run was 150 yards and that was downhill the entire way.I purchased a second pack of these to have in case I need but still have all 3 from original pack still.I highly recommend this brand for mechanical and these have been amazing for my Ravin Crossbow.

I have now shot 9 deer with these broadheads and none have ran more than 50-60 yds. Extremely effective, incredibly sharp, and fly straighter and more consistent than even the Rage broadheads I previously shot. Highly recommend!

I have used Grim Reapers for many years now. I like that they are dangerously sharp and do not open until impact. I have heard it said that the blades sometimes do not open, but, I have NEVER experienced that with these. I’ve tried other mechanicals but Grim Reapers get a thumbs up from me

My doe ran 30 yards big entrance and huge exit it true what the say i watched her drop cant beat that didn't have to even look for a blood trail. BUT i bought 2 packs both practice tips broke after 2 shots each they were 6" left of my target for 40 yards but they were vertically dead on so since they broke i went ahead and used the real one it was only 2" off at 40 yards so i made slight adjustment and its all good so the real heads fly similar to my 100 grain target tips but the practice heads suck. Do like them and will use them as i said in the beginning they work great just need a more reliable target tipUpdate i sent this same review in an email to grim reaper a day or so later i got an email back apologizing for my inconvenience and ask me if i could send pics of practice tip. I said no cause i threw them away. He said can you send me pic of the normal tips i said sure sent him the pics of my tips as proof of purchase. He ask for my address and said he was sending me new ones. You cant beat that customer service. I wasn't even looking for that i love the broad head just was giving them my 2 cents so they would improve the practice tip i will keep using them. Try them you will WATCH THEM DROP
