Taz & biggunz I personally have only limited experience with mechanicals at that it is in the backyard and only foam. I have no clue if the blades snapping closed is an actual failure or true to design, as this was one of the better mech. heads on the market (Rocket). This guy mentioned the shot was low and he admits not perfect, he had tested the rockets through wood, foam, calf hide...you name it and was pleased up until the game end. I guess he was saying had the head been a fixed that deer would have went down easier, but due to the lack of secondary damage it did not happen that way. We all know mistakes can happen in the field and that if excuted most heads will perform as intended. I was more curious to see if other had any similar recounts with mechs por if this is indeed a failure of the head. I agree a lot of the FUD (Fear, Uncertainity and Doubt) may not be from the head but rather the shooter, but I have had no problems or worries with a fixed head prior so why chance it now. I do regularily try different fixed heads and this year I will be using the Magnus Stingers instead of my muzzy' s. Just to say I am not one who is opposed to change by any means, I just haven' t experienced the flight or tuning problems some have with fixed heads.

My understanding is; most who prefer mechanicals is due to the BH acting like their field points vs Fixed heads, is this not the case??? If not what do you feel are other advantages of mech over fixed BH' s??
