swacker crossbow 125 grain and matrix 405?

Post by yotaholik »

hey fellow hunters anyone with knowledge on this broadhead? I am hunting with it this fall and will be using a matrix mega 405. should I double band the blades with the bands that come in package? im afraid it will deploy in flight. but i dont want it too tight and not open up if it only passes through skin like on a too far back shot. Thanks people for any info.

looks like i may be okay with the one band. would it hurt to double band? i.e. not open soon enough? thats great the swackers arent know to open up in flight.

If'en it makes you feel better then double band it. When it hits blades will open

I've been using small rubber bands from dental braces. I buy a little bag on-line real cheap. They last forever and when they open, they normally do no break off. I clean em up and slide them back over and use again. I like my Swhacker 100g. 2" broadheads!
THE ORIGINAL
Exocet 200
100g 1" Slick Tricks
GTII w/ 2" Blazer vanes
Boo "Ohio State" string

THE UPGRADE
Matrix 380
Hawke Pro 30
100g 2" Swhackers
18" Executioners w/ 2" Blazers
