Title: Cutthroats
Post by: bluemoonrising on February 08, 2016, 07:08:00 PM
I switched over to the Cutthroats, 250 screw-ins this year, and I was really impressed. I harvested a big doe and she only ran 40 or so yds. They fly great, are easily sharpened and leave some big holes in the animals. Anybody else impressed with these broadheads?

Do these come factory sharp?

no they come with a burred edge but are heavily beveled so just touching up the extreme outer cutting edge is a snap.

real easy on a file. and easy to re-sharpen, I took a shot at a fox and it was a pass through into a dry riverbed full of baseball sized rocks. a few little chips along the cutting edge, not bad since I was shooting my 80lb longbow. well 2 minutes later with just a file it was so sharp that while testing it on a spot of hair on my arm I cut myself. it seems they were still hungry.

I killed a little buck this year with them. Unfortunately, my set up no longer calls for a 200 gr broadhead. I hope they come out with a couple in a little lighter weights this year. They are bomb proof.

I switched to these heads specifically for a moose hunt I was going on last fall. They worked just as advertised! I shot my bull and hit a rib on the way in. The broadhead twisted, split the rib and kept on going.

Man, are they easy to sharpen!

Here is the new 150gr screw-in Cutthroat. ETA is about one month or so.  (http://%20[url=http://s1077.photobucket.com/user/macdonaldarchitect/media/150gr%20Cutthroat_zps9aatyg9n.png.html%5D%20%5Bimg%5Dhttp://i1077.photobucket.com/albums/w469/macdonaldarchitect/150gr%20Cutthroat_zps9aatyg9n.png)[/url] [/IMG]

I used a 250 grain to take a nice 9pointer this year. Great head.

"I need a 175 gr head"

It's coming next after the 150 gr head. No time table yet on the 175's.

I've killed a turkey and a doe so far with these heads. I had one of the edges break on one of the BH's and RMSG sent me a new one no questions asked. Doesn't get much better than that!!!

I think I will be shooting them this year I got my hands on a couple and they are one tough head with all of the characteristics that make a perfect head

Took a doe this year with a 160 grain this past season.  It was still sharp enough to use again afterwards!   Very easy to sharpen/re-sharpen.  I'll be using these heads for a long time!

Got a tree with one this year. Penetration was great and held up to the abuse

I am planning on buying a set for the fall this year. Last season, used an Abowyer Bonehead which is the same basically but I need a 200 grainer this time around and those Cutthroats look like an awesome deal.

Used some this season. I didn't kill with them yet, but the quality and design are top notch. I have confidence in them.

I'd be interested in the 175's as well.

I used the 250 gr on my Moose this year. Complete pass thru w. 54# Recurve and best blood trail I've had with a two blade.
