Anybody ever tried these on hogs? I've never heard of them, but it seems like they might work.

Never tried them. Why not just shoot them where you are supposed to with a good broadhead? They would be just as dead.
Of course, those may work on a head shoot better than a broadhead.
Plus that is a lot of weight on the end of your arrow. Just saying.

If you ain't hunting, you ain't living right.

Wouldn't that be illegal on deer?
Guess it could cut down on the tracking of a hog or other animal. Doubt I would ever use them though.

I saw something on YouTube that was close to that, it was very unimpressive.

we tried them on hogs with terrible results. most of the times the bullet never fired even with between the eyes shot. one arrow actually struck the hog and fell to the ground then the bullet discharged. not worth the money in my opinion.

Ive wanted to see them/try them but I keep going back to what High Country said "Why not just shoot them where you are supposed to with a good broadhead?" I cant get away from those Montecs, Slick Tricks or Rage's.
I avoid Dick's and hope they fold.

I also wonder what they do to an arrow. I wouldnt want to waste any of my arrows on one of these things.

A buddy of mine tried them. Says it blows the arrow back a long way with very little bullet penetration. Which is what I would expect from seeing rounds go off in fire pits and what not. Casings go flying but bullets pretty much go no where.

I've seen them used and not worth the money plus it ruined the arrow most times.

Absolute junk, a novelty at best. 300 grain tip. At twenty yards I have to shoot like it is 35 yards. I bought them and saw the preformance and threw them away. IMHO IT WILL MAKE THE HUNT HARDER.use broadheads
FKH!!!!

YouTube the terminal results of these, terrible! Now the Rambo heads AKA Thunderheads with protective covers spray painted gold, would be awesome! I still want to put a bunch of tannerite out and corn close to it, when the hogs come it'd be raining pork!
