Where did I say the head caused my miss??



<BLOCKQUOTE id=quote><font size=1 face='Verdana, Arial, Helvetica' id=quote>quote:<hr height=1 noshade id=quote>I'd keep looking for that rock. Old dead tree roots the size of your pinky don't do that type of damage to a Muzzy.<hr height=1 noshade id=quote></BLOCKQUOTE id=quote></font id=quote><font face='Verdana, Arial, Helvetica' size=2 id=quote>


Exactly my point. I went back and dug with a hand spade deeper then the arrow was sunk--------no rock, just roots--the biggest of which is the size of my little finger. That is all the proof I need.



<BLOCKQUOTE id=quote><font size=1 face='Verdana, Arial, Helvetica' id=quote>quote:<hr height=1 noshade id=quote>Then why are you useing them in the first place?<hr height=1 noshade id=quote></BLOCKQUOTE id=quote></font id=quote><font face='Verdana, Arial, Helvetica' size=2 id=quote>


Because 90% of the time they fly fine. At $30 a pack I am not about to sample every head out there as a process of elimination. I chose instead to work with what I had and mark and remove arrows, swap heads, try multiple blade configurations and multiple nock configurations as well(I shoot a drop away). I never managed to totally eliminate the flyers.

Are you saying I chastised other members for saying I should look for my deer?? I hope not because you can't read if that's the case.

I did point out that out of a whole long story full of information and requests for advice as usual the only thing I got a response to was a sentence I worded poorly so it read like I was gonna hunt again without looking for this deer. God, the freakin' ethics police around here are so quick to sniff out ANYTHING even the least bit negative and pounce on it that new posters here are probably afraid to ask questions because they see how quick the hammer drops.

I was still worked up and my mind was replaying the scene over and over. Forgive me oh flawless one, I typed something wrong. I got the entire deer story right but no one seemed to care about that.
