We have all read thread after thread on mechanical broadhead failures. I have never read one on fixed blade failures. There has to be some truth to the matter. That's why I will stick to Muzzies. Not one thread on Muzzy failures. But to each his own.

One thing is for sure, if a hunter shoots an animal with a good COC broadhead and doesn't recover the animal for one reason or another, he's not left wondering if the broadhead failed in some way. The same can't be said about any of the mechinical broadheads.

These were just quoted off of a quick search on Muzzy failures....I suppose since I read them on the internet they must be just as true as the mechanical threads failures.

I have only soht muzzy (100gr. 3 blade). I do have one complaint -

Quote:

I shot a cow elk last year and recovered the front half of the arrow. The muzzy had one blade that was bent about 45 degrees, but I still got a pass through. Arrow weight was 450 gr. out of a 70# bow

.......on second thought....nope still dont put too much stock in it.

Well I dont know whats going on with this site, but for some reason its not working quite right on the quotes. I even tried editing it and it went right back to whatever it wanted to do.

Ehh whatever.

Hurricane, you just believe and shoot whatever you want.

So since you found some Muzzy failures, are you telling us that you beleive that a mech., the one of your choice, would've blown through the animal and stuck in the ground 10" with the shortest tracking job ever, if used in the same instances?

A bent or broken COC broadhead means direct hit on bone. NO? Are you telling us that mechanicals would've been the better choice?

If you want to play the " I found broadhead failure discussions on the net", then by all means, let's play. I'll bet I can find more mech. failure storys then you can find COC failure storys.

My point has been....if you had bothered to read it.....either way it will continue to be... that you can read about a broadhead failure of pretty much any brand on the internet.

Dont believe everything you read on the internet.

I will reiterate the only place I have ever heard of or "experienced" any kind of a broadhead (mechanical or fixed) failure is on the internet.

colorado; thank you for your permission. I dont think I could have gotten by without it.

There is a lot of good information on the internet. Some folks are smart enough to read it and learn from it, some are not.

Your welcome.

Conversely there is a lot of bad information on the internet. Some folks are smart enough to not pay attention to it.

This is getting tiresome. Thanks again.

I just posted my opinion and you want to take it to the next level. (Go back and read the thread).

Bottom line is, if this is a true statement, you need to start hanging out with more bow hunters. I don't care what you shoot. I like fixed blade broadheads and will continue to shoot them. Muzzies were recommended to me years ago by a friend and they have never let me down.
