They are both the same,same arrow same fletching and same muzzy 100gr 3blade broadhead.Should I shoot them 1 time each to make sure they hit where they are supposed to? Or will it dull the blades? Or should I put my practice blades on my hunting arrows and take a shot or to. Or, Or am I just thinking about it too much? LOL
I shot a doe last year w/ the same BH that had been through 2 other deer and 2 coyotes......she ran about 50yds, and looked around as if I'd missed her, to this day no one could convince me that she ever knew what happened before she died. In less than 10 seconds, probably nearly half of that she stood in place looking around, she was dead. IF you're BH's aren't that good, then you need a NEW BRAND!!! Try a 3 pack of Slick Tricks, and you'll NEVER go back..... I've shot MANY of the broadheads I have well over 100 times, and a little re-edging, and they're as good as new.....

Use a GOOD BH, and you won't be putting arrow aside....
Muzzy is so inconsistent, that I'll never buy them again. I had better luck w/ the CHEAP stuff at Wal-Mart than w/ the last pack of Muzzy's I bought!!!
