Default Rotating/helical broadheads

This question is not related to fletching so much but, if you have an arrow that is fletched so that it spins a great deal after leaving the bow what happens to the momentum/KE when it hits the deer and stops spinning immediately? Does the energy from the spinning motion get tranfeered to the forward motion (I would think not) or does it have some negative affect on the forward motion?
Iasked this question in another thread and, after doing some looking around, found out about rotating broadheads and one helical broadhead. There may be more brands but these were what I found and I was wondering if anyone has tried them. I was also wondering about the general opinion on them whether you have tried them or not.

NAP Crossfire- Rotating
NAP Razorbak - Rotating

Spintite Crimson Talon - helical
