Why I love mechanicals

[okie archer]

My 12 year old son killed this doe last week. 20 yard shot from ladder stand using crossbow. 2" NAP Killzone broadhead.
Heart and lungs, deer ran 60ish yards.

Congrats to him! No arguing that when mechanicals work, they REALLY work.

 

[WildWill]

That's great congratulations! My boy uses a similar setup with rage broadheads and the blood trails are plentiful and short.

Congrats to you and your son! Nothing better than seeing kids kill stuff.

All broadheads work when you make a perfect shot, and your son made a heck of a shot! Congrats!

Like when you dead center the rib on a large bull with your whitetail weight arrow.

Oh yeah, I’m not a fan of light arrows or mechanicals for elk, but we’ll save that for another thread

Mechanicals are best for whitetail for sure

I’ve switched from mechs to fixed. Thinking about switching back to mechs after the ranch fairy magic dust wore off.
