Blood trails are very dependent on shot placement. That might be the reason you saw little blood.
The shot that didn't bleed any was at 20 yds,, shooting from about 30 ft up a tree. Hit high on left side, pass thru, came out low on right front side. Got one lung really good and clipped heart. Cuts just closed up on both sides. When I cut open the chest cavity, blood just poured out. Bled to death on the inside.
Rage did better. Again 20 yd shot from about 25 ft up in the tree. Hit high on right side, clipped backstrap and exited low left side, clipped front of offside shoulder. Again pass thru. It bled enough that I found the deer, but I really expected more.
I was just figuring the 3" cut and it being a 150 gr broad head, it might shoot better and produce a bigger wound.
Thanks for the replies. Gonna have to do more experimenting.
In case anyone is wondering, I'm shooting an older Excaliper ExoMax. They say you can get over 350 ft/sec, but to do so you got to change to a different string and shoot lighter broad heads. I'm just using it stock.
