I personally prefer 4 blade, just because you get that much more cutting surface. BUT, in your case, I think I would go w/ the 3 blade. That extra cutting blade also adds more drag, reducing penetration.

I HAVE USED MUZZY 3 BLADES FOR SEVERAL YEARS AND HAVE NEVER HAD A BAD EXPERIENCE. IF YOU USE THREE BLADE YOU CAN ALIGN YOUR BLADES WITH YOUR FLETCHING ALLOWING FOR A MORE TRUE ARROW FLIGHT.THE CHISEL POINT ISLETHAL ON BONE IF YOU HIT A SHOULDER OR SPINE.

I have shot 3 blades for many years and the 3 blades muzzys work great for me - most deer dropping with-in 45 yards. The 3-blade heads don't offer as many cutting surfaces, BUT they are significantly wider.
