Can't vote, shoot fixed. I personally don't trust mechanical broadheads.

Why shoot a mechanical?

RE: Mechanicals
 
Why not shoot a mechanical (not an argument, just a question)? There is much skepticisim and debate about mechanicals in the bowhunting world. As with any advancments with techonolgoy and bowhunting equipment, there will always some level of error that can occur.

I am by far from an expert on this subject, but it seems to me that some of the most devistating broadheads on the markets are mechanicals. Most articles and prohunters provide more hear good news than bad. Overall, it is about ethical shot placement and most any broadhead will do what it is designed for, harvest the animal.

This will be my first year using mechanicals.
