Day Six Verse

I know folks really like the SEVR, but I can't really speak to those. That said, I have had some bad experiences with the Deadmeats at longer distances not getting good penetration. Had to finish off a buck mule deer in his bed after a one-lunger. Also, never could never shoot them again without swapping blades and usually the little blue collar thing.

So I'd say it depends on how many shots you get out of a Deadmeat ferrule plus the cost of swapping blades compared to how many go-rounds you get out of the Verse without having to change blades. I don't have enough time shooting critters with them to know what that top-end longevity will be, but currently it's 4 shots in the dirt and one through an animal and none have needed to be swapped.
Great perspective. Deadmeats tend to be more of a one and done type of head. I've really liked the SEVR and they've worked well for me but I'm liking the bigger hole from a "4 blade" hybrid cut like the Verse is offering. Lifetime warranty from Day Six says a lot as well!
 
I agree with several of the posts saying non-patent violation with they Hyde.

While they look similar and the Verse may have drawn some inspiration from the Hyde. They differ enough I don't forecast drama.

I will likely stick with the Hyde which has been great, for several reasons. But believe the design, style and build quality of the Verse is pushing the envelope in a good way.
 
I think they look great and love the material choices. The price is what makes me question using them. I can buy a bunch of other really good broadheads for the price of 3 of these. I’ve really considered the Hyde’s the past couple years but I’m not sure I want to shoot an elk with a 2 inch mechanical even though I’ve seen plenty of successful pics.
