RE: CUT ON IMPACT HEADS?
What is all this " herdin' " going on? [:@]
It has been known since the warming of the ice age and rarely disputed by the " salts," that " cut-on-contact" heads penetrate better and maintain more energy during penetration than, chisel points and coned points, and that chisel point out perform coned points, but that all three types will do the job; but certain types usually do better than other types.
If it was not for the small diameter and very pointed chisel point with short length (not height) blades, I would be shooting " cut-on-contact" heads off my recurve, because COC heads are going to penetrate much better when shot by a low fps/KE bow.
You can argue until doomsday, but the physics will remain and rule.
