Out of your setup......with your current BH.....would you expect anything different?

If I shot 250fps .....I wouldn't shoot the head I do. If I wasn't pushing 70+Fp's/KE I wouldn't shoot it.

Rob I'm not disputing the bear's leg was broken. But your BH blew through it? interesting.

I broke my leg by jumping on it wrong. Any chance your BH hit the bone and the bear did the rest of the damage when he bolted? How would one ever know?
Blew through it!

I know exactly because there was a perfect 3 blade Muzzy hole through the leg, the broadhead stopped under the hide of the rear ham where it shattered on the rock the bear was laying against. Doesn't matter to me if the Muzzy broke it or the bear broke it because it still stands true that the broadhead went through it solid dead center. (We deboned the meat and I purposely showed this to the outfitter as he was not a fan of bows). I should have kept the bone as a keep sake.

Honestly I don't think the Snyper would have gone as far as the Muzzy went but I know one thing for certain, the bear would be just as dead.

I'm shooting roughly the same KE today as I did then.

I know as I know your are doubting it but it is what it is but if Matt would have posted it, it'd probably be gospel. ;) [8D]

Funny how certain folks can post results of broadheads when they have never had the experience.:D(ie., will never penetrate hard bone.) I shot a slick trickinto a 1/8" thick piece of channel iron. (60lbs/350 grain arrow at 20 yds)Didn't get a pass thru, but impressive nevertheless. Penetrated about 1/2 inch.I believe a living being's bone is softer than steel. Wouldn't you agree?

I'm not trying to say one BH Is better then the other here but I gotta agree with Rob here. I've seen It myself where Muzzy's have broken the front leg (not the knuckle) of a few different doe's. It's no lie either!! I seen It with my own eye's when we found the deer. Muzzy's are known for this. The hard sharpened chisel point on them Is really something else If they hit the bone perfect.

I believe that too with the former Muzzy's but I really have to question the same heads today. I think they've cheapened their product but hell, what do I know I've only bowhunted for nearly 30 years using Muzzy's for probably 20 of them. ;)
