[QUOTE="Achucker, post: 181589, member: 5185"] I've used a single blade broad head for years. The only difference I have noticed is a well placed shot is most important. Most bows shot for big game will kill if placed in the right spot. Either double or single bevel, 2 or 3 blade, and yes I dare say razor sharp or hand filed sharp. My dad did a video back in the 80s on the energy of bows. Shooting a kids bow (25lb) with a broad head that wasn't too sharp at about 5 yards into a gallon jug of sand. I think it would have went up to the fletching if it wouldn't have hit the chair it was sitting on. My point is provided you are shooting a bow that has enough energy to penetrate the animal you are pursuing it is more important to practice and be as accurate as you can than the "type" or brand of broad head used. Remember native Americans used a piece of flint attached to a willow stick and many animals were taken. Remember practice, practice, practice. [/QUOTE]
