Lets get back to where we were headed .......
These are a given, no matter what BH you shoot an animal with....
1)Sharp, sharp bh.
2)Shot placement
3)Elapsed time after the shot
4)Patience while tracking
Some guys on this thread keep throwing these out there...but what we're really trying to talk about is.......
We've established, in the event that you don't hit where you're trying too...you are...for several reasons...overwhelmingly more likely to hit an animal "too far back"..I'll even include "high and back". OK now my last question....
Why, Why, Why the trend towards NARROW broadheads?
Especially narrow, 7/8" two bladers....
If shooting "dangerous game"...equipment that is boarder line adequate...or "Big" big game(moose,big boar hogs,maybe elk),where penetration could be a factor simply because the way an animal is built, then I could see cause for some concern in the amount of penetration.
Once a bh goes out the other side of a critter, it's job is done!It's done all it can do! It really matters not it if it barely makes it out, or is sticking into the dirt 8"....it doesn't matter!
But for everyday type, the kind of hunting that 95 percent of us are doing on a regular day to day basis, aren't we better off shooting a big, and even better, multi bl. broadhead?????
