    United blood tracks data on fixed blade vs mechanical

    yes some will come out of the nose but most will fill the diaphram if you have an entry and no exit, depending on entry you might not get much dropping if any an exit lower down will give you good indication and importantly a better indication of shot placement to start follow up.

    United blood tracks data on fixed blade vs mechanical

    There is so much more to recovery aside from shot placement and broadheads but having the equipment as good as it can be is important, what is missing from all these stats is what happened after the shot because these are the most important factors to recovery, was the deer followed up...

    How much have you spent on your saddle setup?

    For me probably 150 all in as I am a big diy'er but now ask me how much I spent on machinery to make my gear, welder, sewing machines 3d printer and so on, so in truth it would have been far cheaper to buy them from a supplier, lol but were's the fun in that.

    Ozonics poll

    Not used a real one but made one pretty cheap so just testing it out but the results I am getting is they do actually work, I will always hunt the wind as much as possible but in some forestry/ wood areas the wind changes and it’s something to help in those areas
