Inside 40 yds, on the average whitetail shot with aproperly tuned bow, not a lot of advantages to a mechanical. Fixed for me.

When you get down to it how straight does a shaft need to be? How perfect does fletching need to be? Our equipment is much more accurate and consistent than we are.

But Broadhead flight. That can be something out of our control as mentioned earlierwith windetc. I guess I will stick with fixed blades. If I get to where I can shoot a broadhead at an animal at 50-60 yds. I may consider mechanicals after shooting both.
