Default RE: Arrow deflection fixed vs. mech's

Tazman,
I took a "cowhorn" spike 2 weeks ago that was a pretty good size buck. The arrow blew through both shoulders and was stickin 6" in the ground. This deer was shot at 19 yards, Beman 340 ICS Hunter, a 100 grain Thunderhead, 74 lbs draw weight. I was amazed, this deer just dropped, kicked its back legs a few times and then expired. I don't know if a mechanical would have done this. I would like to try mechanicals, but when I can get my fixed blade heads to fly as good as I did this season, I just can't make myself try them.
