Admittedly I don't know enough about physics to fully understand, but from what I can tell the difference between the Bloodrunner hitting bone and a fixed head hitting bone should be minimal.

Either way it makes no difference to me, I'm currently shooting for another broadhead company, but these things always rouse my curiosity.

Chances are,you will encounter the bone upon entry.The bone is touching the surface or very close to the surface in most cases and that is where I feel a problem will occur.There will be an equal and opposite reaction to that hit and that tip will have the energy traveling backwards,atleast that is the way I see it.
