Mechanical Broadheads, Pros and Cons?
OK, I know this has probably been discussed to no end before, but I'm new to this forum and am considering going to mechanicals. I used to use Satellite Titan II's back when I had a larger (too large for me) bow. I DID have very good success with them, as they had a very large cutting surface. I would very seldom have to track a deer very far because they would bleed out quickly. The problem came when I placed a shot form 40 Yards and just hit the shoulder blade. It was a huge whitetail, and the tip of the broadhead bent back, and the arrow fell out. Anyway ... I have since upgraded to a nice Martin bow that fits me. I have been using Muzzys, and although I do get well placed shots, the deer don't bleed out as nice and I end up having to do a lot more tracking. I have heard that the mechanicals have a greater cutting surface, but I have also heard horror stories about arrows hitting bone and changing direction. I invite anyone here to chime in with your experience-based pros and cons.
THANKS!
