I already told you toease you mind and justget some slick tricks. Problem solved.
They fly as good as any mechanical, are 100% steel so they area heck of a lot stronger than any mechanical made or aluminum fizxed head, no flimsy blades,, No rubber bands or o-ringsto worry about, theycut huge ammounts of tissue (more than many mechanicals even).
What's not to like?
Do you shoot 100 grain or 125 grain heads?
I Gotta Agree! Just don't see the advantage to a Mechanical and I would say I have killed as many Deer with more kinds of mechanicals than most.
I'll be packing the new Grizz Trick in my Quiver most of next season more than likely.
If I were to use a mechanical I would more than likely go with the NAP XP Spitfire Pros. Ah the days of the Punchcutters, Puckett's Bloodtrailers, Rockets (several models), Vortex, Synpers, Spitfires, Spitfire Pros,etc.
I'm not sure how many models of Rockets I used back in the day, but the Mini Blaster 4L was one of my favorite. 4 blades, 1 3/4" cut. It was like throwing a razor edged tennis ball through a Deer. They were pretty much one shot heads though.
Reasons I don't use them anymore are flimsy blades, little screws, flimsy ferrules, rubber o-rings, and failure to open. Some mechanicals may not have all these going against them but they all have some of these problems. I just don't see the advantage to them therefore I have used fixed blades for several years.
I prefer my Blades to cut on impact and it doesn't bother me they don't have to open!
