I have a Phoenix. I've been shooting Gold Tip Lazer II and getting very
good groups with 125 grain field tips. I'm dead on at 25 yards.
I purchased some Easton Hunter 2219 on close out sale they are heavier
than Carbon GT Lazer II. I shot three 2219 with 100 gr. and was almost
same group spot at 20 yds. After all that....I am asking if my two blade
Mangus broadheads will work with these arrows? I have old style black
solid blade and newer stainless in two blade and Buzz cut type with
bleeders and serrated edge Speed with GT Lazer 125 gr is 284 fps. I can
slow speeds down with 2219 and 125 gr if that would help. Any input
will help......the guys at shop say two blades don't fly good on short
fast bolts.

Two Blade Broadheads
Boo....can you tell me arrow brand and gross weight and arrow speed?
Or bow poundage? I'm trying to see if I'm in your same specs.

Re: Two Blade Broadheads
I was shooting a Gold Tip Lazer 2 with no brass insert, Blazers and an Exocet 200. Sorry but did not chrony the speeds nor did I weigh the arrow. Two blade broadheads can be erratic but these Stingers seem to fly well out of anything at any speeds that I've shot. Even my Hoyt Vulcan. I would imagine I was shooting over 310ft/sec and the arrow weight was probably under 400grs. I see no reason not to try yours on the Phoenix especially if you slow it down with a heavy shaft. Again, watch your broadhead alignment.bowtime wrote:Boo....can you tell me arrow brand and gross weight and arrow speed?

Agreed Mike, I have some 150 gr Stingers(wide blades) that let me know when I have a bad release on my recurves. I would imagine that non-vented blades are worse.wabi wrote:In my experience with arrows and broadheads (crossbows, compounds, and traditional bows) a 2 blade head is perhaps the hardest to get good consistant flight from. Not saying they won't fly perfectly right out of the box, but odds are they will take some tweaking and tuning to get good results.

Boo,
I hope we're no hijacking this thread, but it does have to do with 2 bladed broadheads.
I can remember the hours spent trying to straighten cedar shafts, heating and twisting the old 2 blade heads that were so common years ago, and the frustration of hitting combinations of arrow/broadhead that just weren't going to fly accurately! The nagging question of is it the arrow, or is it the broadhead, or is it just that combination?
