Title: Who shoots vpa broadheads?
Post by: Etter on October 23, 2016, 08:22:00 PM
Just to try something new I ordered a pack of the 1 1/4" 200 grain three blades. Id try the big jim heads but theyre too expensive for me. So what have your experiences been?

I shoot the 200 gr. VPA's and I think they are a good head.

I think they are great heads.  I normally shoot 3 blade 175 grain VPAs, they sharpen easily, spin true and fly well.  They work well for me.

250 grain screw in 3 blades...easy to sharpen and fly great! Also shooting the Cutthroat 250 grain 2 blade single bevel made by VPA for RMSG. VPA is a great company with customer service that is second to none!!

Daniel, yes they are a little shorter than the 175 grain 1 1/8. I shoot both, but the 1 1/4 are my favorite.

I shot them last winter and shot a hog and a javelin. Both were perfect hits I found the arrow from the javelin and the broad head was unscrewed never seen it again .  On the hog, when I pulled out the arrow there was no head on the shaft, later I went through the lungs and blood clots and found the head, it had broken off behind the blades in front of the threads and the head was as dull as a butter knife !It would shave hair when it left my bow. These were the custom heads with the little arrow head silhouette cut through the blades very expensive. I went back to my WW and Razorheads when something works good for you you shoulnt change.

I shoot the VPA 150's...the 2 and the 3 blade shoot the same for me in multiple bows. This buck was with a 3 blade 150 1 1/4"

Only shot a bear with one...did a good job...right now I am hunting with 175 grain Penetrators, 175 grain Terminators, 250 grain Penetrators and 250 grain Terminators...you might get the impression I like the VPA broadheads...and you would be right

I shoot the 3 blade 200s and the 250s Great heads. I have one of the short stubby 200 grain heads I found on an old bloody arrow in the woods. sharpened it right up and put it through a goat on the next trip out.

They work very well.

Shooting the 200gr 2 blades this year for the first time. Hopefully I can let you know how they do.

Also trying their small game head out. So far, just a swing and a miss on a squirrel. Not sure if I missed, or the squirrel just got out of the way. Lol

I shoot the 250 gr Terminator 1 1/4" out of most of my bows, but my MOABs love the 300 gr Big Jim Big-3...  Great heads!

I've been shooting the 200 grain 3 blades for about 5 years, indestructible!
