Broadheads for Hunting

[BlacktailStalker]

I would love to decapitate a turkey with one of those, I've seen them on a few shows and it's almost comical when they connect lol!

I've seen the videos using those Guillotine heads. Wow!. Lottsa floppin around and general "funky chicken" dancing. The bird is dead - right away - though the nerves take a while to get th e message thru to the muscles.

I prefer fixed blade heads myself - but I am a believer of "Whatever Ffluffs Your Kilt, bucko!"

[Franko Manini]

Any outdoor writer who recomends mech heads for big game especially to a newb hunter, should have one shoved up his arse.

Oh big deal... the thing probably wouldn't even open up.

LMAO

Now I use Mechs ... Never had a problem with them ...I posses the knowledge and ability to tune fixed heads ... the only time I never passed thru using Mechs was when I spined a buck. other than that ...short blood trails to a dead critter

those of you burning mech blades ... shoot a quality one and your opinions will change ....theres crappy ones out there granted ...but theres crappy fixed blades as well ....

[jessbennett]

good point mikey. going to try the tekans in the kootenays and grim reapers maybe. also got some little devil 75 grain ultimate steels i might whump a deer with and see how they do! lol..... the grim reapers are a deadly machine......

I have been using the Rocket Steelheads with success ... Cody(Jackal) over on Bowzone ..has used the steelhead 100s for 10 years that I know of ... Passed thru each of his 10 elk in those 10 years and always put down his Deer with those heads... Well as you can figger Cody being Cody if something fails once he would never use it again .... every year he shoots at least 3 animals with those heads ....

the only critter hes hunted and never taken down with those are Turkeys ...simply cause he missed each shot hes put on them gobblers

Seems like whatever works for someone is what gets that someone's stamp of approval and recommendation from then on.

I've tried a lot of expandables, replaceable blades, and fixed blades. For me it is fixed blades. Just my opinion (for what it's worth).

Been there done that, won't do it again. Spit-fires are considered one of the better heads, and yet I personally have had major issues with it. I know of 2 other guys who have had the identical issue with it.

If your so knowledgeable why wouldn't you just tune fixed blades to fly right
