TFOX, I shoot a cut on inpact two bladed broadhead which is considered a fixed blade. There is absolutly no way ANY mechanical will out penetrate this head. I don't care what you say otherwise as far as accuracy. I can bang arrows with these broadheads at 30 yards. Will I take this shot. Almost definatly not. I have only lost one animal and that was in my first year of hunting. I have first hand experience at what a cut on impact two blade will do. I have seen elk shot from end to end with one. I like to shoot a 3 to 1 ratio. Meaning that the head is 1 in wide and 3 inches long. It is a flying spear and has no planing characteristics whatsoever. The tips hit exactly where my field points do. I think that you better do some homework before saying that mechs will out shoot ANY fixed blade. I am not against using mechs for deer however the statement that you made about outperforming ANY fixed head in any situation reguarding accuracy is totaly false.
