Swhacker 150 crossbow broadhead
Has anyone tried these? Was considering these because they are 150 grain and mechanical. The only one , I believe that makes 150 grain mechanical.
Just wanted some opinions on them first before I purchased them.
Thanks
Tom

Them 150s would fly awsome on a easton 2219 alluminum .The 150 grain and a 30 grain insert. ....perrfect together. Its nice to see some heavier heads coming out.

Re: Swhacker 150 crossbow broadhead
Yes, I agree longbow joe. First I've seen a 150 grain mechanical. Wondering if it would fly good on the top of Firebolts or Diablo bolts? Also, how well they work as far as blood trail and recovery of deer?longbow joe wrote: ↑Mon Sep 03, 2018 4:24 pmThem 150s would fly awsome on a easton 2219 alluminum .The 150 grain and a 30 grain insert. ....perrfect together.

Re: Swhacker 150 crossbow broadhead
Them factory diablo and firebolts were designed to be used with a 150 grain head. Yes a 100 grain exact will fly good because its basically a field point but a 150 grain is getting in the range of a brass insert and its all good foc wise. . A swhacker is a deadly head l personality would use 2 bands on them in a 330 and up. I have never killed a deer with one but friends have killed many good stuff.

Re: Swhacker 150 crossbow broadhead
Just signed up on the forum. From NJ. Looking forward to learning and exchanging ideas!
I bought the 150 Swhackers. I shoot a Bulldog 400 with Diablo bolts.
Found they shot 3 inches to the right at 40 yards compared to the Bolt Cutters which were dead on with field points. Made the adjustment and now dead on and consistent.
Last year was my first with the crossbow and I shot two does with the Bolt Cutters. First one was double lunged and went 120 yards. The second was single lunged and thru the liver. It went 50 yards and expired in it's bed 6 hours later.
After reading the other thread I double banded the Swhackers and am looking forward to hunting with them.

Re: Swhacker 150 crossbow broadhead
Shot a doe tonight with the 150's. 25 yard shot double lung. Deer ran 60 yards stopped for 10 seconds and fell over. Between ribs going in, hit rib going out. Found bolt in sandy soil, with one blade missing. I am thinking it broke off on the exiting rib hit. Nice 3" slice thru lungs.
Re: Swhacker 150 crossbow broadhead
congrats on the doe! Was just wondering, do you double band the Swhackers? Does any feel the need to double band them?Buckfever wrote: ↑Mon Sep 10, 2018 6:32 pmShot a doe tonight with the 150's. 25 yard shot double lung.

Re: Swhacker 150 crossbow broadhead
Yes, I double band them. I read another thread on here that recommended it.

Re: Swhacker 150 crossbow broadhead
been using diablos with Lumina nocks and swacker 125gr heads with the bd400. they fly real nice and make I big hole bet the 150s are nasty.tried all kinds of arrows and heads just seem to go back the above
Re: Swhacker 150 crossbow broadhead
I don't have Lumenok now, worth the expense? I see you can buy the Diablos with the Lumenoks already on them.otisbrazwell wrote: ↑Thu Sep 13, 2018 5:26 pmbeen using diablos with Lumina nocks and swacker 125gr heads with the bd400. they fly real nice and make I big hole bet the 150s are nasty.tried all kinds of arrows and heads just seem to go back the above

Re: Swhacker 150 crossbow broadhead
I used the Afflictor 150 grain Swine mechanical last year. Had great results- 4 dead deer, went through both shoulders of a doe at 40 yards. One time used only though. They fly like field points, no premature opening and I just used the supplied band. I am using the 125 hybrid version this year with 1 3/4 cut. Blood trail was great- easy to find all four deer.

Re: Swhacker 150 crossbow broadhead
I've been shooting the NAP FOC broadheads for a couple of years they're a 3 inch 170 gr. mechanical that flies awesome out to 60 yards. The 3 inch cut looks like you hit the deer with a hatchet. Good luck with the Swhackers.
