Default RE: Very disappointed in Muzzy BH performance

atlasman, You don't happen to have a pic you can show us do you? Have you contacted Muzzy about this?

Bottom line - atlasman had a Muzzy head blow up on something it probably should not have blown up on. Why? Has Muzzy switched something this year on that model?

Let me copy and paste what <b>5 shot</b> said about this.

"Well, can a muzzy bend, you bet! can it bend on a tree root, yes it can. This can happen to any broadhead, but I suspect that you may have hit somthing a bit harder, and with those "random flyers" I would bet you have an arrow or two that is not setup perfectly, and it also sounds like you don't have enough fletching control. Are you using helical fletching of at least 4" in length? I have bent and broken most every broadhead out there and I can tell you that Muzzys are some of the toughest made, as well as very accurate."

atlasman, I think people are hitting this from many angles. Some think this post is about poor Muzzy flight performance. Others question why you would go into the field with something you do not trust. Others think the main issue is something was defective with the head. I would like to hear what Muzzy says.

Now, my one nitpick...

You said "I have NEVER been pleased with the flight consistency of these heads and they will be not be on my arrows any more."

Then why in tarnation were you using them in the field?

I'm glad you're switching heads and I would be curious as to what you decide to go with.

Good luck with the rest of your season.
