Default Changing the Other way

Here are some pictures of a hide from this year. The deer was shot with a Rocket steelhead, 125grain, 1 1/4" (3.2cm)cutting dia.

There is an entrance hole and an exit hole photo for comparison.

Before you blame me.....Yes, I did photoshop these. But it was to get the brightness and contrast corrected.

I have been a faithful Rocket mechanical shooter the past several years and have promoted them many times to friends. But that is changing. I'm mixing around with different fixed-blade heads as soon as the season is over. I am not doubting the quick kill ability but I want a great blood trail and one lg hole + one small hole isn't as good as 2 large holes.

Interesting pics.

That's why there are rear - deploying mechanicals like Rage, Snyper, etc.

But a fixed blade is even better IMO.
