Going to pick up my new Triton Friday. I could use some help in choosing broadheads. At this point I know I am going Carbon's but unknown weight or exact model. I have only used mechanical broadheads solely based on shop owners recommendation. I have done some searching but would like to ask my question in this way. What is the best between mecchanical or fixed? What makes one better than the other? I believe the shop owner believes that Mechanical fly much more like field tips. Any help would be appreciated.

I shoot the NAP Shockwaves in 100gr. They fly 100% like my field points do. But if u are going to go with fixed I would either get the muzzy 3 or 4 blade. If your bow is set up properly they will fly just like your field points! Hope this helps.

i know quite a few people who like the expandables for there flight consistency but i have heard a few horror stories of sometimes they dont open up all the way resulting in wounded lost animals.there are to many great quality fixed blade heads on the market that fly just as well--the slick trick broadhead---the crossfire and nitron by nap archery.
I have heard that it's more difficult to "tune" fixed-blade broadheads to carbon arrows. You can "heat and turn" a broadhead in an aluminum arrow until you achieve accurate consistent flight but you can't do this with carbon arrows. By recommendation from the guy at the bow shop, I have sided with mechanicals (AeroHead Steelhead 100gr). They perform well on broadhead targets but so do Muzzy 100's.
New PSE Triton, help on broadheads please
