Default RE: Basic Mech broadhead ?

Sheesh ! hard crowd

I had "heard" that you can "band" the Mech broadheads closed for practicing ?????? so they will not open on impact.

Not like I was shooting through a rasberry bush, 3 times it was a lone, small twig, not visible to the eye.
I wasn't trying to be harsh. Just saying that a mechanical isn't going to help you out with twigs and you gotta make sure they aren't there all together if you want to "fix" that problem.


You can tape up the mechanical heads but you then add weight to the broadhead and instead of making a nice slice in the target it will then rip and tear the target.

I suggest that instead ofpracticing all the timewith your broadheads simply just shoot several to verify where they are impactingand if they are impacting with your field tips you are good to go and go back to field tips and put sharp blades in the broadheads for hunting. Every now and then during the season shoot a few broadheads to verify they are still going where they are suppose to and keep hunting.
