micro accuracy results with different bolt weights

Another 150 grain mechanical option is the swhacker. As with all broadheads everyone has their opinion/experience. I've watched all 5 deer I've shot with them drop within 30, most within 20 (so no reason to try another). I originally shot boltcutters and the 2 deer I shot both dropped within 50 yards (I switched because I wasn't getting good blood trails).

I did try one other 150 grain mechanical which I won't name as I made a poor shot (shoulder) and lost that deer. I am a firm believer in shot placement being the most important factor. Good luck and I retired my flintlock too for late season and that's resulted in the same amount of shots but a much better harvest per shot ratio.

I personally have found that 400 total grains of weight or more are the sweet spot for accuracy and penetration. Additionally I found that accuracy with fixed heads especially larger ones decreased with higher speeds. JMHO.
