Atom broadhead

Post by vidsoutmike »

Without bashing the Atom or any other brand of head, do any of you shoot the Atom? Please refer to your experience with it and not just an opinion not based on fact.

I've got some Atom Broadheads, both regular and titanium. I've only shot them from my compound only. I've found they fly exactly like field points. I tested them two years ago by draping a tanned buffalo hide over my 2'×2' block target on both sides. I consistently got a 7/8" entry and 1" exit cut on the hide. Josh at Spot Hogg told me at the time they were the most accurate broadheads they had tested with the hooter shooter. He wasn't pleased with the lack of blood trail he got on a bull elk he double lunged at 90 yards. Field point accuracy and complete pass through but poor blood. Three hundred yard recovery. I planned on testing them on last year's hog hunt but made the mistake of trying my toxic broadheads first. The results were so amazing I never got around to trying my Atoms. I'll try them out one day,I love the concept.
