So what do you use fixed blade or expandable? I have always used fixed blade either Thunder Heads or Montecs by G5. It seems like 70% or so of the deer I have seen lost were lost while the hunter was using expandable broadheads. This is my experience anyway from first hand accounts while hunting with friends or family. It seems like you are more likely to loose the blood trail while using expandables. I realize shot placement is key above all. I have always had good results using fixed blades and over 15 years of hunting have only lost 1 deer I thought was a good hit and lost the trail. Now I am a believer of if it aint broke don't fix it but while hunting last year with a friend he shot a deer using 100gr. Spitfires and the exit hole looked like the exit hole of a 12ga. slug or rifle round. I was completely amazed and up until that point had never really considered switching from fixed to mechanical but now I am thinking of it. I know they have come a long way in the 15 years I have been hunting.
So I ask what do you use and how have the results been?
If I switched this year I think it would be to a NAP Spitfire after seeing the damage it can do first hand.
