nub I went to my bow shop yesterday(do not ask how much I spent)and the owner said that mechanicals worked fine on black bear, I told him what you said and he pulled up some photos of black bear that were shot with spitfire mechs. Man those split fires did some serious damage and were pass thrus!!! I doubt I will get a shot at a bear while deer hunting, but if I do I plan on having a couple of fixed blades in my quiver, hopefully I will be able to report back.
