RE: Fixed vs. Mechanical opinions
I have to stay away from mechanicals, especially after watching Outdoor Life Network the other day. On a hunting show, a guy shot his arrow, and it flew like a curve ball from the top MLB pitcher in the world series. It turns out that one of the blades opened during flight and the arrow was really off target. It was wild to see the wacky flight the mechanical misfuntion caused.
Fixed blade for me.
