OverviewI'm not too sure with the Thunderhead history, but rumor around the campfire is that the Thunderheads have been around for alittle over two decades. Some folks poo-pooped on it's "ancient" design, but what the hell, I'm a beginner; what do I know. So I purchase a package of 6 for approximately $40 from the Bass Pro Shop.com.When I received that package, I was surprised how deadly they looked: perfect. Handling the broadheads left me with a greater sense of deadliness. These things are extremely sharp. The broadheads come disassembled, but assembly was easy, taking only minutes to assemble all six of them. I equipped 3 of my Carbon Express Mayhem arrows with them and designated them my practice arrows.PerformanceDays before the broadheads arrived, I made a broadhead target (referred to as BH target from now on)by stuffing an old pillow case with expanding polyurethane foam. By the time they arrived, the target was dry and ready for use.I set up the BH target in front of my DIY Archery Target, walked back to the 20yd line and let the first broadhead arrow fly. THWACK! About 1.5" lower than my field points. Second shot, THWACK! Near the first arrow. I thought, "not too bad for a bow that has never been broadhead tuned."I walked the 20yds to the target to retrieve my arrows low and behold, the arrows had completely penetrated my BH target and was sitting half way inside my field point target. It was hellish getting the broadhead arrows out of the DIY Archery Target. Too much penetration. Next step was to turn the BH target on it's side so that I was looking into the long, open end of the pillow case. Third shot, THWACK! Full penetration and into the field point target again. Dang, I need a new BH target.I eventually had the opportunity to go to the public range and tested my broadhead arrows there and here are the results:20yds - 1.5 to 2" lower than field points30yds - on the money40yds - on the money50yds - about 2" lower than field points60yds - about 6" lower than field pointsConclusion: These are excellent broadheads. They fly straight and appear to be very good at cutting its way through a target. I do need to broadhead tune my bow to get even more performance out of the broadheads, but quite honestly, I'm not going to sweat it if I can't get them to fly exactly like my field points. My theory is that although it would be very nice if both heads flew exactly like the other, an inch or even two is acceptable at this point in my hunting career (at this time, I have exactly zero days of bow hunting under my belt). I think the variable that's more likely to prevent me from hitting that deer or wild boar is going to be range estimation more than my broadheads being off by an two inches at 50yds. Yeah, give me a M21 SWS with a M3A or a AN/PVS10 and I can hit man-sized targets all day long in any urban or outdoor environment, but a bow with 5 fiber optic dots as my sight? That's going to require a whole new set of range estimation skills, skills I have not yet developed.Note: If anyone is familiar with range estimation with a bow sight, please drop me a link, an email, or comment at [...]Thanks for reading!

I have taken many deer with these broad headsThey work greatVery durablePerfect fitEasy to useExtremely sharp

still one of the best on the market

These broadheads preform really well out of the box. Arrow flight was almost spot on to field points up to 60 yards. They are considerably sharp out of the box in comparison to some other brands on the market. The only vice I found was after getting buck fever and missing a shot I skipped the arrow in the dirt and when I recovered it the point was bent and unusable along with the blades being picked. Will update their durability after I send them through an animal this year.

i used to shoot thunderheads back in the late 80's thru the early 90's. always had very good luck with them. great pass thrus and held up very well except for the occasional bent, nicked or broken blade to replace.then the mechanical broadhead craze hit me. i switched out my trusty thunderheads for spitfires. i shot the spitfires and switched again to another brand, cant remember which. then in 2009, the rage broadheads grabbed me up and i grabbed them up. they flew great because of the compact size and design and they performed very well under nice conditions.then in the january of 2010, i had my rage heads freeze up and didnt open on contact on a nice late season buck. i switched back to my trusty thunderheads at the beginning of bow season 2011. i have had the best season ever!! 5 bowkills with complete pass thrus on each and every one. broke 2 carbon arrows and the broadheads were still fine and undamaged.they flew very well shot out of my bow set at #63 out to 40 yards (thats the max i will shoot at). i really have total confidence in thunderheads knowing that they wont fail on me.i bought them here on amazon and got a $10 rebate form from the NAP website. i ended up paying $22 for 6 after rebate. a great broadhead at an excellent price. i highly recommend the thunderhead broadheads. 5+++ stars

These NAP broadheads are the old Thunderhead 100-grain ones, and they are as great as ever.

exactly what i was looking for
