RE: Fixed or mechanical broadheads?
I use Spitfire Mechanicals with my Horton Legend, never had a problem with them. 5 shots 5 dead deer, farthest any went was about 120 yards running mostly in a circular path, about 25 yards as the bolt flies, two dropped on the spot.
IMHO it is all in shot placement, good shot placement means a humanely downed animal,poor shot placement theyare not.
