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.
Yeah I believe any true hunter makes a less than perfect shot ocasionally. But not often enough where it justifies doing that to a animal with a broadhead. I mean seriously you think that don't encourage some hunters to take shots they shouln't be taking. I guarantee it does. I can already hear it. Well I have the rage it will probably cut the artery anyway or I have aroom for error because this broadhead is so devistating. Sure that a huge gaping wound but there will be more meat wasted as well.
My last less than perfect hit was 3 years ago and I have shot probably 15-20 whitetail since then. I don't believe I need to have the ability to gut the thing with one shotwith my broadhead. The object for me is not tomutilate the animal. I want the meat and I want clean kills, yesbad shots happen it's a part of hunting, but if you have bad enough shots often enough to feel you need to have a broadhead that does that maybe you should keep practicing and pick your shots. Thats what I do and never had many problems. It is impressive coming from a arrow no doubt. Just for me personally I don't want that.What a mess.
