It's hard to say what happend. A tree can be pretty hard this time of year. You may have done it pulling the head out, or somthing else odd may have happend. Muzzys are great broadheads, but they are not industructable. I have bent them on rocks before. My point is, don't let one incident make you loose confidence. Of all the heads I have tested I still have found nothing better.

That tree is as big around as an elk leg.....I have yet to see a BH that will defeat the leg bone of an elk......I wouldn't read too much into what happened.....I bet it would have blown through that deer IF you had hit him.....

I used to extensively test broadheads and you simply cannot get a better head. Either the tip was loose or this was a defective head (unusual). I number my heads as well as my arrows and have shot as many as 6 deer with the same head after changing blades. You can get other heads as good, but not better!

i dont think it was pullin it out because it was already broke before i touche it, i just think it hit an extra hard tree and there is no way im switchin

No broad head is indestructable. Not Muzzy, G5, Simmons or Innerloc. All the toughest heads can be broken, bent, twisted and smashed. I do hope you never have this problem again. I've chipped the Trocar tip on mine a few times, that's about it. Muzzy is my number one head.
