Default will these work??

A friend of mine has does coming to a feeder and wants my 7 year old daughter to harvest one of them. She will be shooting a x bow but my broadheads are NAP spitfire mechanicals. Will these do ok through netting of a blind?? I know best thing would be to try them but I don't have that option, I could change to muzzy heads that I have but afraid they will plane too bad. He said she will be shooting less than 20 yards and likely less than 15.

You should let a lil kid shoot mechanical's! You wont get any penatration and a slim chance at recovery.

Don't shoot the mechanicals through mesh! Get a fixed blade.

or take the mesh off, but if your set on shooting thru mesh then a coc head would be the right choice.

The mech's wouldn't be a problem with a crossbow.
