Before I went back to Muzzy's I used to shoot Wasp Jak Hammers mechanicals in one season I had 4 shots wherethe blades opened in flight. Nothing will screw up your arrow flight more than a mechanical broadhead that the blades open in flight.
I have to know,how did you know it opened in flight?
I have had one problem with mechanicals andone problem with fixed.The expandableI recovered and the fixed I did not.I had a blade come off on impact once but the shot was perfect and the deer was recovered.Rocket was more than fair with me when they sent me a new package of a different model.Apparently there was a problem with that particular model.
The fixed was a Thunderhead and it caught whatI believe was the back of the shoulder and I found the arrow about 30 yards down the trail.The head was twisted beyond belief.
