In another embodiment, the triangular blades have slots and the ring has slits extending into the ring with the slots engaging the slits to prevent rotation of the ring. Alternatively, the ring may be fixed to the triangular blades by welding or by any other means. The broadhead is particularly well suited for hunting large game animals.
