Toxic on Buffalo
 
Hi everyone
Just bought a Barnett Ghost 410 , any ideas on suitable broad heads for water buffalo. I've taken buff with my 70# tomcat in the past but I used 2 blade fixed type heads.
Thinking of trying toxic but not sure how all them blades will handle all that muscle and bone. :rant:
Cheers

For a big ol buff I'd go with a 2 blade for max penetration.

The Silver Flame comes to mind......

I reckon ya might be spot on there,
I've seen hunters try to take some of these bulls with 3 blade and even 1 hunter using a 4 blade slick trick I had to finnish off with rifle.
All well placed arrow (bow) just didn't get the penetration .
Cheers I think I'll stick to what I know works. 2 blade fixed I think

If a slick trick is having prob I think that toxic would fail big time

Try old Howard Hill 2 blade with screw on opp
I also find bear 2 blade without bleeder works great on MuskOx and Cape Buffalo

The only expanable broad that works on thick skin game is Grave Digger cut on contact COC its called has adjustable tension on blades !
I killed wildboar and feral hogs all with complete pass throws!!!:woot::party0005:;):hit:

I used the Toxic on a whitetail buck and it blew right through him but a water buffalo is a whole different story.
