Hey all. This will be my first year hunting with my Bob Lee. It's 43# at my 30" draw. Just wondering if these broadheads will be ok or if I should switch to 2 blades? They are flying great and my arrows are 560 grains about 13 gpp. Thanks for any help.
I have killed deer with Trailmaker 3 blade heads with a bow that was 51# at 28 inches, so it was probably shooting 48# at my draw weight. Penetration was complete.
You'll be fine!!! Sounds like an awesome set up, I shot 3 deer with the 3 blade VPA with a 41@28" ILF bow and had exit holes in all 3......VPA makes a fantastic head!!! Sic em :thumbsup:
Im shooting the 125 grain 3 blade this year out of my 43@27 A&H ACS. I have compete confidence that it will work fine.
I have killed quite a few deer with 3 blade VPA with 47# @ 30" longbow. Always complete penetration if not complete pass thru. I think you'll be fine.
Those are 3 blade heads that act like 2 blade heads

VPA's are "da bomb" and your long draw is giving you plenty of performance. You probably have the power of a bow over 50 pounds at 28". You are good to go!
You didn't say but I assume you are talking deer and not moose.
Been shooting these heads for awhile. Great heads no worries with your setup.
Yes just for Tn white tails. Thanks for all the help.
Have shot the 250 gn VPA 2 blade BH's against 250 gn VPA 3 blade BH's. The 2 blades would visibly penetrate much deeper into a blob. The 2 blade 250 gn VPA's would disappear into the denser version of the blob target which are not prone to giving up much with regard to penetration.
However, the 3 blade penetration was good and dead is dead.
You're good Bud.

Deer are not tough animals, you'll blast right through them.
Most likely so...nice draw length for a longer power stroke....but you didn't say what you were hunting....so I can't say for sure.
I'm shooting the same heads and my poundage isn't a whole lot heavier. I haven't shot a deer with them yet, but these things will get so sharp I don't think a deer would slow them down much if you get a good edge on them. I've got bald spots all over my legs from sharpening mine lol.
