RE: Arrow deflection fixed vs. mech's
I have done some tests with fresh deer hide and a rib cage a while back. I used a Muzzy 3 blade 100 grn, rocky revolution, and a spitfire. The muzzy and revolution had no skipping or deflection on the shots I took. The spitfire had some, showing anywhere from 1 to 3" of "sliding" on the hide before sticking. the angles were very steep, and the deflection wasn't all that much, but it was present, so it is something to consider if you use that peticular head.
