I’ve really not seen that as an issue. I’ve heard people say that, but I’ve taken about 30 animals with them. It is much more of a function of shot placement than anything else. I’ve had some of my shots produce a downright bloodbath. And I’ve had others be a lot more of a trickle. But it all depends on whether clip an artery or not. Even with a seemingly good shot, if you do not cut an artery, you will not get the same amount of blood. Or if you hit a little bit high in the lungs, you will not get as much blood.

@LuskArcheryAdventures2 ай бұрын
I don’t think they will. That’s part of the design and what makes them unique. I’ve only had it proved quite lethal for me, after shooting a lot of animals with it. And the extra bleeder makes up for anything lost by the blade that pivots closed. I recently used the 1.74 in Argentina. They made a great initial hole, and pivoted well after one blade cut through the rib and the other swung closed, then pivoted back open immediately after that and stuck out the far side. I was impressed by how quickly they pivoted back open and also for the cut of the rib while one blade was open and one was closed.
@edwardberns13412 ай бұрын
@@LuskArcheryAdventures They work for sure I have around 12 or 13 animals with them and wife 7 deer. And over half had the small exit hole where one blade was close hitting rib. Makes for less blood. Love the toughness of them and how well they are made. Since they went hybrid I'd hope they were going to start to make other small options and changes. Like add no pivot option. I personally don't need the pivot to help with penetration on my bow specs, but like it for the wife and her specs. I didn't think sevr would go part fixed head since they were unique with no fixed heads. They are working their way to a fixed head so I'm hoping they will work their way to none pivot blade option but keep the option to pivot for ppl that want that option.

That’s a good question. I explained that in the first video of the year, where I introduce the 2024 Broadhead test process. The short reason was that almost every head passed the test just fine. And on top of that, the rotation of the blades and flight and where they are when they impact the angled board makes a huge difference. So one bright head may catch the blade just right and stick into the board, while another one rotates differently and the blade hits the wood, causing it to, bounce off. In other words, it just was not a useful or reliable test.

Have you had any issues with the o-rings in the cold or sitting in elites quiver?
@LuskArcheryAdventures24 күн бұрын
Nope. They're not affected by cold because they're silicone. If you have a foam insert in your quiver, you'd be side to clear out some space for them to slide in without causing the blades to open.

You are not pushing straight down on the edge for sharpness testing. You are slicing at an angle which skews results. A slice will always read lower than a straight push.

I've read in other threads how difficult it is to change out the blades; in addition to the heads accidentally opening in quivers. Obviously this wouldn't be part of your testing process. But could you please comment on this and your experiences using them? I don't want to switch out my quiver (kwikee) just to accommodate them.
@LuskArcheryAdventuresАй бұрын
I have commented on that with some of the other Sevr videos. I just can’t share everything and every video. If you have a foam insert in your quiver, you need to cut a little space for the Broadhead to slide into so it doesn’t open them prematurely. That’s the way it is with a number of mechanicals as well. Or you can get the kind of quiver that does not have foam, but rather has a harder rubber insert. Those will press on the deployment arms at all. I have lot of videos on my channel where I use the sever on hunts. A lot. And I show how they work. You can check them out on my channel, just search for Sevr and many will come up. I’ve taken many Whitetail, including big Iowa bucks, huge hogs, a red stag, zebra, blesbok, muley, and turkeys with them.

@LuskArcheryAdventures18 күн бұрын
Yeah, I understand that. But I don’t think they are stupid media tests. It’s just a data point for people to consider when selecting a Broadhead. If one head can handle steel and concrete and another cannot, then I know which one I’m gonna choose. I’m pushing the Broadheads to the Outer limits to see whether or not they can handle it. That does not mean it is essential for a Broadhead to handle steel and concrete. Those only account for a very small fraction of the total score. But it is interesting and helpful to understand when selecting a broadhead.

Well they fly exceptionally well. Did you watch the video? The longer the blades, the longer the head. They have a hard time adding the weight to the 1.75s. That’s why they’re only in 1.5 and only at 125 grs.

@@LuskArcheryAdventures yes i watched the whole video, we all know for a fact that having more exposed surface area in a broadhead is not ideal. i have never seen a difference in flight from using a shorter head vs a longer head of the same weight. but i have seen more surface area heads mess with flight like everyone has. this one is still small enough to fly well, but we all know that the original without the added bleeder will fly better over long distance and in wind. there is no way to deny that fact.

I understand that issue. But it has not been an issue in my hunting experience. The blades pivots so freely there is really not a lot of drag on them if they ever go to 90°. And they are actually better at penetrating because they pivot around a bone, if they were to hit one.
