The above information came from examining the carcass before my Dad skinned the deer. While I was right that the arrow broke a rib going in, what was not evident or obvious was that the angle was a little sharper than appeared and the arrow actually hit the hip bone of the deer and broke the hip socket. Thus the "thwack" when the arrow hit, thus the bent tip. Would a Muzzy/Thunderhead penetrated any better ? Doubtful I think, because smashing a hip bone takes a lot out of an arrow !
Anyway, my apologies for bashing this head - it appears that it DOES take some punishment without falling apart. I have edited the title with my OOOOPS
