Beast broadhead real world experience

I played with the aluminum version at a tac event and was less than impressed with the build quality and sharpness. The vendor said he just took the head out of the package and it was no where near sharp especially for a high cost head and basically non sharpenable no doubt do they leave big holes but so do all other 2+ inch mechanicals.
 
Killed Elk, Bear and about 8 or 9 deer so far with them. they been fantastic in all respects except one. All have been 2inch versions and I have used both the TI and regulars in 100 and 125 grains
Durability been excellent, they have held up and worked again after every animal killed, One became icky last week after I my third kill with it in two days. It still worked however one blade was a little sticky.
They are sharper than anything else I used out of the package. They retake an edge with a strop and I haven't had one that had enough blade chatter yet after the first use that I wouldn't use it a second time.
Penetration and way above average compared to similar 2 inch mechanicals in my experience. Pretty much on par with the 1.5 sevr and 1.5 sever hybrid.. Wound channels and blood trails are consistent with pretty much every other 2 inch rear deploy mechanical I ever used.
The only negative I've had with the head is that I have had them open up in the quiver.


This year was a year for me to test mechanicals and so far I've had 26 kills with seven different heads. I have two more heads that I hope to kill with in the next three weeks. But I feel like at this point I have enough data to make a decision as to what I will use going forward.
