I have been bow hunting for 50 yrs and NAP are Hard to Beat! I know everyone has their favorite heads and there are lots! NAP Thunder heads are about as Good as they get for Fixed blade! I have used every Head sold an Now Graduated to the NAP Double Cross 4 blade expandable! I now use a Excalibur 405 fps Crossbow and the fly like bullets throu paper toasting and have 2” wide wound channels in Deer and Bear in the UP of Michigan!
As an engineer and someone who understands physics pretty good, how can the blades deploy that fast (faster than the speed of sound) and not have a cracking noise opening?
I'm not a mechanical fan, but Bowmar killed two Cape Buffalo in one day with this head. One was taken @ 100 yards with a compound bow. It did not go far after the shot.
Just out of South Africa from a famous archery shop back there, I was saying the same thing to the owner of the shop until he told me that he met Bowmar's cameraman who apparently told him that it took Bowmar more than 10 shot on 10 different buffalo before killing one... True or not, we'll never know but it's not the first time that I hear stories like this on Josh Bowmar
@@alexandrederavel1229 I don't believe in 10 buffalos but it is true that they show only the successful shots. Shooting animals from far distances with a bow, they must failed a lot. Not because of bad shooting but animals can move when they hear the shot. He would never release the videos where Bowmar wounds an animal and they won't find it. And that happens for sure.
I shot my first beast broadhead at a deer and I don’t think I’ll be using them again. I had the first one I used hault on opening and do next to no damage. After looking at the arrow I realized why. The blades rely on a spring and they sit in a channel that if the blade bends causes them to bind. It was cold and raining and I saw the blade was gummed by fat and hide. Most mechanicals rely on the energy from the bow to the arrow to open. These rely on a spring that is a fail point. So just keep that in mind that maybe even if they are dirty or you tweak a blade or your clip a bone there is a chance they will not open as they should because they have a fixed amount of energy by design to open unlike say the reapers and rages I’ve shot where as the arrow passes it will continue to push the blades open.
@@cjr4497 The bomars are always talking up how good their broadheads are. I find it interesting to see everyone testing the broadheads and seeing that they aren't worth all the hype given.
I do not. In order for me to compile a spread sheet of any real value Id need to settle on a method of testing for long term. I havebt gotten there yet. What info are you interested in specifically?
My brother got a pack of these and they really are garbage! The blades kept sliding back and the other had one that wouldn't deploy a blade and if that wasn't enough the blades had chunks missing from a block crossbow target. Not worth $70..
Bowmar stole their design from VIP Broadheads. They’re under patent infringement litigation right now. Support VIP, they’re the OG and far superior to the Knockoff Beast Broadhead.
Like the idea but I’m not pay that price ! I’ll stick with my afflictor K2 hybrids. Would love to see you test those out as well ! As always great work ! Love the videos !
@@HuckFTW Umm, yeah. Chuck Adams would measure how many pounds of force it took pushing different broadheads through a piece of leather. The test was only slightly useful because there’s a difference between static energy and dynamic energy. But, since it’s obvious you’re a lot smarter than me, can you explain to me your statement of “measuring POUNDS of force, not FOOT POUNDS of energy”?
@@russelllangworthy8855all I’m saying is force and energy are different. Don’t know who Chuck Adams is, and don’t care. Force can be measured directly, and is expressed in the same units as weight, such as pounds, grams, grains, etc. In this video pounds were used. Energy is the ability to do work. And work is the product (literally multiplication) of force and displacement. That’s why the unit of energy is FOOT-POUNDS. Because it’s a force (measured in pounds) multiplied by the distance said force was applied (measured in feet). In this test, displacement was not measured, so we cannot claim it required XX foot-pounds of energy. Comprende?
Great reveiw! Figured they werent worth the hype but nice to see some facts and real results. Yes it will kill animals but the price and claims are just not correct. Seems to be a theme in the archery industry anymore, these would pair great with UV 1k arrows! 😂
Awesome review and spot on!!! AND... I would stay clear of anything Bowmar unless you are one of their fanboys. Bowmar fanboys deserve everything they gobble down from them phonies!!! lol, SMH...
Great review as always. Thanks for the content really appreciate the attention to detail and real world test. Honestly like your reviews better then lusk reviews even with the giant product cost gap.
Can not believe people pay huge $’s for any mechanical head. A spring loaded head, really? One shot and it’s done. Get a fixed head and tune your bow and arrow combo to work perfectly together. I wouldn’t use any mechanical because it CAN fail on any given shot. LOGIC dictates using something that never fails.
I’ve seen his slow mode videos, that things isn’t opening like they’re saying. And I remember him when he was back in Ohio. Not a big fan that’s for sure. I mean only reason people watch that hunting show is his wife. And that’s even hard to watch.
I had a QAD exodus head work on 4 deer after 2 resharpened then killed another 2 way cheaper blows through shoulders not saying that head is bad but too expensive plus bowmar is a cocky prick
I'm surprised Josh is not all.over the comments here I just started looking up at these heads on UA-cam Shot one my friend had and at 30 yards was hitting 3-4".to the rightfrom field tips and my bows are perfectly tuned so I posted a comment on another channel and I'm guessing the channel owner is joshes friend and must have contacted him and they jumped all over me about my comment smh he can't take criticism

These broadhead “tests” are a waste of time. All the tests online like actually field tested like they should be tested tell the story not your little machines and graphs.
mechanical will never be the best broadhead, and no one will change my mind on this. There's always a chance that it will fail and not open, and you're essentially hunting with a field trip. 2 blade single bevels properly sharpened are the best broadheads hands down, if you want it to do its intended job every single time.
Haha, cool story bro. I agree that mechs aren't the best but a 2 blade single bevel isn't the best either. I've had much better results with a 3 or 4 blade fixed blade. I've used them all.
Yes and no. This is just a basis. Are live animals better?….yes and no. No 2 shots will be in the same area on a same animal. But, you can get a better general idea of how it will perform in/on live animals out of countless testing. That’s what I did with mine. Tested for 6yrs on Hogs, deer, axis, aoudad, and other species.
Thank you for the review. But I will Not support A poacher. And the bowmars are porchers. Facts. And they are one and done broadhead. You get 2 broadheads for 60 dollars. I would rather buy broadheads that work like iron will. Facts
As an engineer and someone who understands physics pretty good, how can the blades deploy that fast (faster than the speed of sound) and not have a cracking noise opening?
An engineer, understands, physics, pretty good, cracking noise, seems legit. It is due to the frontal size being of such minor exposure, in this case, razor thin, the larger the front, the greater the, should I?, why not, the CRACK!
