Default Shot through screens

Before I get flamed the search feature won't work for me.

I Just bought a Stealth Hunter blind and it has the screen windows that they say you can shoot through. Is that true?? My set up is in my signature below.

Yes. It works perfectly fine, depending on the broadhead.

I've never shot through mine--But I shoot Mechs' and it says fixed only!! I think if I was gonna try it, I would try it first in the backyard at a target!!!Just my thoughts!!

U can shoot some mech's through it, just not all. An example of one you could would be the Rocket Wolverine. An exampleof one you can't, Rocket Hammerhead. That big "L" arm to deploy the blades would cause them to open through the net.....

When I got mine I switched to fixed blade. I went with the G5 Striker and they work great with the shoot through mesh. I took a doe a week ago shooting through the mesh and it hit dead on where I was aiming. BUT I would imagin if you were to hit the mesh at an angle instead of straight on, you might get a bit of deflection. But I have no proof of that.

OK thanks. I shoot Muzzy 3 blade. I'll try it out before I hunt with it.
