If you were to switch to mechanical what would it be?

[Huntingtyler123]

Only have shot fixed blade Broadheads but have been looking at mechanical Broadheads lately. If you shoot these or were to switch to mechanicals what would you use or recommend?

I have my eye on rage Hypodermic +P mechanical Broadheads. I shoot with a compound bow with 65lbs draw weight.

Thank you!

I have the Grim reaper razor cut mechanicals and they are awesome and fly well,I have never tried rage yet but I hear the Trypans are awesome. I’m thinking about trying the NAP DK4 which is a hybrid broadhead.

I’m still shooting GR whitetail razor tips, I watch them drop every time.

NAP 125 grain Spitfires.
Fly like well thrown darts to any range you are capable of.
Huge and short blood trails every time.
Won't be switching any time soon.

Cheers,

If you can shoot fixed with a tuned bow, why go backward to a mechanical?

I was just curious and I’d think a mechanical would be more accurate Further out. Also was thinking of a bigger entrance and exit hole for more damage and blood trail.

If I was going to switch, I would go with SEVR or Rage heads. That being said, I will likely never switch from the fixed blade camp.

I tried mechanicals for a while with no issues.. i went to them as i preferred the 2" cutting diameter to the 3/4" of a fixed blade.. to me bigger blood, better trail. I have since switched to fixed (for this season) as i liked the grouping better..

Either are just as lethal as long as you practice so that where your arrow is supposed to go and do its job, it will

Have successfully harvested 2 bull elk in the last 3 yrs using the Rage Hypodermics. Great penetration, large gaping entry for easy blood trail, expired very quickly
The word is min 60# for using mechanicals due to the energy lost. For both elk I was set at 60# and no issues.

If you have no issue with tuning ....a fixed blade has less chance of failing as it is already exposing its cutting edge. I would stick with your fixed blades, but that my opinion , bone can effect the opening of a mechanical if hitting the critter in a bone upon entry.. Both work most of the time.
