Default Rockets????

ok this is getting frustrating [:@]i'd planned on buying a pack of mechanical heads and a pack of fixed to compare as for fixed i'm going with the slick tricks but i'm stuck on the mechanicals. i had planned on going with grim reaperbecause of the goodreviews theygot on this sitebut most everybody i know around my neck of the woods (including my local pro shop) recommends rocket sidewinders. the thing i don't like about them is the fact that they use rubber bands to hold down the blades thats why i liked the reapers no o rings or rubber bands but a lot of ppl swear by the rockets. whats the deal on these? are they any good or are most people just bragging on them because thats what they like?

I've killed over a dozen deer with variousRocket mechanicals.
Typically the deer are recovered within 60 yards.
The heads fly like field points.
Entry hole may be small.
Check screws for tightness and replace rubber band as needed.
