Pavin. Yes I remember when pass  thru. Wasn't  the best  just stick um. Would. Cause more internal  damage. Maybe  but a bad blood trail .  Don't what to start any trouble. But  what about Fred  and the pods

I have a buddy who killed a deer with a serpentine head many years ago--said it looked just like he had stabbed him through with an apple corer.  Big hole and lots of blood.
The years accumulate on old friendships like tree rings, during which time a kind of unspoken care and loyalty accrue between men.

Shot a couple of deer with them when they first came out back home in Utah, in the 60s or 70s.  Not a good head at all but when you lived in Utah that is what you shot.  At least in my circle of buddies and dad being a Browning rep at his shop in Salt Lake.  Poor penetration and always a huge ball of hair as it cut its way in.  Also I can't think of a head in the last 50 years that was as discouraging to get an edge on.  Trying to get the right bevel on a 180 degree turn made one turn grey prematurely, but you are right, they do look cool.

I would never hunt with that head. Also another useless head comes to mind, it was the Black Copperhead Ripper.
