I havent gotten a chance to take a hog with a bow. But from what I hear you dont want a mechanical head because of how tough the hogs are. No room for a broad head that might break or malfunction.

I use a NAP Spitfire (mechanical). I have blown through every hog so far. 70 pound 30" draw. Kills them dead. With that said just about any head will work with hogs as long as you have the kinetic energy.

You want a bit smaller cutting diameter as you would on a deer, or a bit smaller. and stick with fixed, cut on contact heads. Ive taken them with mechanicals, but have also lost several by using mechanicals. Ive never lost a one with any fixed head ive ever used. Ive shot them with muzzy three blades, slick tricks, monotec G5, tekke three blades, sonics, liberty two blades, old bear three blades,and eagle two blades

All depends on the mechanical. Nap spitfires are great. Crimson tallons are great as well as a host of others, but dont try a steal head. That was the worst by far. I always tell people to just go with a fixed head because if they pic the wrong mechanical, they will eventually have problems. And a lot of people tend to buy the cheaper ones for hogs, which are usually not the best. The very worst ive ever used are the spiral cut type. They simply are a piece of junk. If one wants to use a mechanical on hogs, keep the cut diameter small.

Ilike the Muzzy Phantom220 grain broad head. I like the weight and the FOC itgives my arrow. I have used Grim Reapers (mech) for years and never had one break or fail.
