I am obviously in the minority here, lol I just don't think that's necassary. I never had a problem with a deer dropping usually in sight with a well placed shot from a normal broadhead. That's just a mess to clean up and or for dirt and debris to gather in. Overkill IMO
I would have to agree.
Have you guys ever made a less than perfect shot ona deer? Do you think the outcome wouldve been different if you had that extra cut in there? Our goal as hunters is to kill the deer as Quickly as possible, with minimal suffering to the animal. In order to acheive that... It's not always going to be pretty. If you dont think the MOST devistation is needed to harvest the animal more quickly, than maybe you should carry a camera. JMO
I honestly think if I would have shot this deer with a muzzy or other small bh, I may have still been out there looking right now. In the rain.
Absolutely,
And on heavy bone such as shoulder etc. I have seen too many mechanicals fail. By fail, I mean either physically break or just plain fail to penetrate because it was too large of cutting surface.I will stick with what I have seen outperform the large mechanicals over time. I have used both on many deer and will always go with first-hand experience of 30 years of bowhunting. Good luck.
