Using a Rage Hypodermic

I used Rage extreme and blew thru everything Wildebeest, kudu, gemsbuck, nhayla, impala, warthogs if you feel comfortable with the shot placement with them use them. Took Muzzys for backup just in case but I was pretty happy we killedalot and didn't have any misses or lost animals. Your set up sound pretty similar to mine you will have to use fixed for big stuff like Giraffe and Buffalo think it is the law over there. Alot of guys with some good info on other threads who are adamantly against rage and mechanical blades I would just take both and use the one you feel you shoot the best.
Thanks
 
I just harvest this Buck yesterday and @ a 20 shot, he ran 35 yards and crashed.
I heard Africa animals have stronger bones but after harvesting 7 bucks with rage two blade hypodermics, I feel if I get at least 18 to 24"s the animal expire.

Don't be surprised if you are hunting in a blind one afternoon, that a "gun hunter" hunted that same morning. I'd stick with the fixed blades.
 
My Bless-buck I harvested, he came in and gave me a 28 yard shot, I clip the back of his lungs and he ran around 125 yards and fell over.
What a hunt.
I used my slick trick magnums.
Great hunt

This was a great hunt,
I harvest this wide mature lmpala Ram at 23 yards, double lung.
The arrow exited and the tracker found it 50 yards pass the animal.
That arrow was smokin.
He ran 75 yards and dropped.
Amazing hunt.

What a hunt this was, the huge kudu bull came in looking for cows and gave me a 25 yard shot and I got the heart and lungs , he went 80 yards and laid down.
We waited 30 minutes and when to get him pass through and great blood trail.
Fixed blade slick trick magnums.
Horns measured 53 1/2"
Awesome hunt.
Thanks guys

I've had mixed luck with rage products. Look into Ram cats. They fly like fixed but back cut and become mechanical if they don't pass through. Most accurate broadhead I've tried with good cutting action and a very strong chisel tip.
 
Keep it going Ice man I wanna see more ! Congrats !

Great animals and glad to see the slick tricks are working. I would not use any other head to hunt with myself.
 
Had a Awesome hunt yesterday.
This warthog came in for a drink and gave me a 28 yard shot and ran out of blood @ 30 yards and dropped.
Slick trick magnums are awesome.
Video coming soon on all of my hunts.

I had another great evening, I saw a young wildebeest with some cows and lots of kudu cows with young bulls only then this thick horn Impala Ram came into the water hole, I couldn't say no.
He was at 30 yards and the slick trick magnum broke his shoulder.
He ran 98 yards and dropped.

Well done Ice man. Nice shooting. Pigs and Impala are string jumpers, so you are on a roll! Looks like both you the Halon are in sync!
 
Any more pics?
 
My last one and the hardest to get on.
I had 6 encounters with this big bull and couldn't close the deal.
He came in yesterday at 4:45 @ 13 yards with some younger bulls and cows .
I put the pin on the spot and hit the release.
The arrow was on the mark and he ran 100 yards and my PH watched him drop on the dirt road where we drove in.
Fantastic finish.
Ice man

I used the slick trick magnum and they performed well beyond my expectations.
6 animals and only the bless buck ran 250 yards because my shot was a little back but the rest never made it pass 100 yards.
