RE: MECHANICALS WITHOUT RETAINERS
Navy,
I played around lst year with shooting them open. Put a little wax in the groove so they stayed open and they flew pretty good too. They won' t give you the FP accuracy as when close but not bad.
I think manufactures can' t make a fixed head like an open mechanical because " most" states have regulations against " barbed" broadheads.

RE: MECHANICALS WITHOUT RETAINERS
yea I' ve shot them that way. When the fixed, mechnicals shot that way, and field points all hit together then I am tuned up and ready to go hunt. My hunting bows have been that way since June. Just waiting for the season to open..
