amount of equipment
It's not the amount of equipment that was used, but how many, if any, failures that were encountered during the time frame. Dead deer is dead deer. I agree. An equipment failure is also an equipment failure. Not saying your broadheads failed, but that they were only used for one season.

Serious question Jeff;

What were you hoping to accomplish with this thread?
Dan I think it has merit. I posted a while back....asking what percentage of BH's we thought actually saw the insides of an animal. We get people denouncing BH's all the time.....adamantly....and if the truth be known....they've probably never used the head they're talking down.

Just thought it would be interesting if people had first hand knowedge of a product they were a detractor of.

It's one thing to talk up a product you feel strongly about and have personal knowledge and experience with. It's another to denounce one you've never even touched......much less used.

Still trying to understand this, LT......same amount of arrows.....same equipment.....same amount of everything......except years.

Jeff, I thought you said once that you were never going to get internet at home.
Damn work. I have to be able to connect. I have RR and a wireless card. Progress. Why is that important???

OK, read slow

If I (analogy) go buy x car because I drove one for about four months and had very little if any failures with said car, should Joe Blow go and buy this car and expect to never have it fail him. I know, I know, every car/broadhead can fail. That is not the issue here. The issue is, "how much experience does it take" with a said piece of equip/broadhead, before we are entitled to say they are the best, great, excellent, ect.

Tony you missed the WHOLE point....trying to make this about me. It's not.

I don't CARE what anyone uses. I'll give you a testimonial if I've used a product....but I sure as hell am not gonna denounce a product I've never used......to make the item I DO use seem "better".

NO ... he is just taking aim at MeanV again ..... Dan commented how he didn't like mechanicals, Jeff took personal offence, hence THIS thread, and many previous threads .....

OK LT,,,,,,,I'll type slow.

We'll use your car....if that helps.

Man drives 100,000 miles in 5 years. Car performs flawlessly.

Man drives 100,000 miles in one year. Car performs flawlessly.

What's the difference?
