Sure, heavy arrows with a high FOC% will flat out penetrate better. Just about any bonehead knows that. As to your other two statements I've got to call BS. My mechs are 1 3/4" three blade Grim Reapers. Just so you know Grim Reapers are one of those evil, non-penetrating, over the top types of mechanical heads. Unfortunately for guys like you who would have the world believe otherwise, they penetrate just as good as your cut-on-contact fixed blade heads. In fact, if you've ever not had a complete pass through then statistically they out-penetrate your COC fixed blade heads. Jump up and down, stomp, scream, rant and rave all you want. My mechs penetrate just as good as your COC fixed blades.

I keep seeing you mention the "Lie that is Kinetic Energy" (your words from another post). What in the world is going on with that? Jeez dude, did someone preaching Kinetic Energy piss in your Wheaties or something? All it is is a method of measuring the amount of force at impact and regardless of how you feel, it is not USELESS in bowhunting.
