Would the same arrow have deflected off that mule deer were it tipped with a fixed BH? Sometimes I think people mistake causation with correlation. Correlation is....it was a bad shot for the angle that caused the deflection. The mechanical BH was NOT the "cause".

Matt.....buddy that's about the best post I've ever seen on this subject. I've hit shoulder ONE time in 13 deer I've killed. It was the off-side shoulder. I had a Muzzy on the end....and it went throught the body cavity but did not ass thru the deer, totally.

Your post was outstanding. Thanks for taking the time to do that.
