After a very bad experience this past season using a shockwave on elk I have definetly decided to use a fixed blade head and am serioulsy thinking about a cut to the tip style head. My only concern with these type heads is that if they encounter heavy bone do the blades have the strength needed to penetrate the bone w/o bending or breaking the lead blade. I am considering the steel force, phantom, bear razor, and the G5 montec. I know the montec has the strength, but how about the others. The lack of the main furrell extending to the tip is what I am worried about. Thank for the input.
