Spitfire 100gr or Shockwave 100gr?
They are made by the same company and they look almost identical. I'm leaning towards the shockwave at this time, but only because they're about 5 or 6 dollars cheaper. I've not gotten negative feedback on either one of them, but that's only coming from three people here at home. I was hoping some of you here could give me your opinions.

A couple buddies of mine shootspitfires and like them. I have not heard anything necessarily bad about either one ofthem. Personally I shoot Muzzy broadheads, 100 gr. 4 blade and love 'em. I have never shot spitfires of shockwaves.

ive killed 4 deer with 100 grn shockwaves ut of a horton crossbow. they've done a good job for me, complete passthroughs on three does and none ran over 50 yards. the last one this year was a 175 lb 8 pt, the first shot hit him in the spine (my fault), then i got down and had to shoot him again. he was flopping his front end around really bad so i accidently hit him in the shoulder not getting any penetration. finally the last shot i put a 125 grn thunder head through his lungs. im switching to fixed blades this year because the ferrule was bent BAD on the one that hit his spine, and the one that hit his shoulder blade was broke completely in half, the thunderhead just needs to be cleaned! the heads worked perfectly and stayed in tack on the three does though.
