The 3 blade rages are notorious for not penetrating well. Buddy of mine lost 2 bucks with them and watched them run off with the arrow hung in their vitals just a few inches from a Matthews 70 lb bow from 20 yds. My brother shoots the 2 blade rages and they're deadly when they hit and don't seem to have the penetration problems.

my spitfire with a mathews 60 lb shot a deer at about 15yds behind the shoulder and passed through and into a tree hard/deep enough not just to pin it there but to keep it standing up. a large hog with tougher hide/hair, maybe caked in mud with a thick shoulder shield is a whole other story. never had a chance at one but would think muzzy fixed blade probably.

Here's a 17 yard quartering shot with a SpitFire. It blew thru it like hot butter and it stumbled about 5 yards
