wolf dog, the post with Len's pic might have been deleted. It was on the main board probabyl a month ago.
look up "Len in Maryland" in the member list and look through his latest posts. the thread was started by someone else, maybe "davidmil" but i cant remember for sure.
I am pretty sure the post was locked, i do not remember if it was deleted or not.

You'll have to email Len directly for the pics.. I didn't get a chance to save them before the thread was deleted.
I talked my boss at work into giving me a pack of the 100 gr hypershocks to "test" this season. After playing w/ them a bit.. I'm really excited to see what they'll do on a deer.

Ken,
At 300fps and a 400gr arrow you don't have to even consider cutting diameter limitations........If I were you I would look at more cutting surface.
Rocket Hammerheads, 3 or 4 blade will be NO PROBLEM, Slammerheads, or 4 blade Sidewinders.
I've used them all and blood trails weren't even an issue because everything fell in sight.
I shot a buck in West Virginia a few seasons ago with a 4 blade Sidewinder.......took one hop, spun in a cirlce and flipped over.[:-] He never made it 10 feet or 3 or 4 seconds (whichever came sooner)
If you have the energy to spare, why not use it?

I personally recomend the Vortex 100's-2blade.
Fieldpoint accuracy, tough as nails and leave bloodtrails the blind could follow!!!
I use the 125's but the 100's might be better in your setup.
