Coues 'n' Sheep Report post Posted July 13, 2007 Casey, I have been using NAP 100 gr. Spitfire Pro for years now and find that they make recovery of coues deer a Very short walk. They have no rubber band and make a Big hole going in and a Big hole coming out. I have had bucks "jump the string" and still recover the deer within 80 yds (never a farther recovery than that). It will group with your field points at any range with some bows, but for sure out to 40 yards.... I have had some bows that would need to be resighted after 50 yds.... but they are more accurate than a field point. I shoot much tighter groups at long range with these broadheads than with field tips. I am probably going to use them on elk for the first time this season.... we shall see... but I think they will do well for me... In the past I have used NAP Thunderheads when elk hunting. Best of luck. CnS Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've been using the 3 Blade Nap Spitfire also and have great luck with them on elk and deer. Out of 4 elk and 1 deer I've seen taken with them nothing made it over 80 yards either. The deer went 15 yards, a liver shot on a bull elk went 45 yards, a elk double lunged went 80 yds, elk behind shoulder shot went 50 yds and the fourth around 50 also. Here's a link where a guy did a test of various popular broadheads on tires, plywood, accuracy, how fast they open and strength through a steel drum. The Nap Spitfire performed with a score of 18 which was rather low, but the main issue was it's strength. The accuracy was excellent on them and and that's the main reason I will continue to use them. http://www.american-hunter.com/broadheads/broadhead_test.htm Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lance Report post Posted July 22, 2007 Ultimate Steel by Rocket Arrowheads 75gr, good for Coues or elk! Half the price as others! !! Patterns the same as field tips. even at 100+ yards and 300+fps. I put them on with a brodhead wrench and the blades will not come out. They are tooo sharp to touch anyway! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
