RE: Good Broadheads for Bad Hits???
BobCo19
I guess what I am looking for is the best of both worlds. I am a firm believer in passthrough shots. My friend hit a branch the other day with his mechanical Grim-Reaper 100 grain and he thinks it threw off his shot alot. He got a gut shot, pass through, blood all over, but couldn't find it. On the base of the blade where it opens up, he found a little bark where he thinks it may have cought on an unseen branch, which in turn threw his shot off enough.
I've heard mechanicals do lose some Kinetic Energy on impact, but i really never thought it was enough to worry about. Now i have my doubts.
I see a lot of fixed 3 blades on the market, but it seems like a 4 blade might do more damage. Is there less penetration on a 4 blade compared to a 3 blade?
