With that poundege i would personally recommend using a fixed blade.Try a rocket ultimate steel 100 grain. Small cutting diameter and very accurate.

I would definetly NOT shoot a mechanical with that set-up! Fixed blades or what I think would be best is cut-on-impact tip like a Steelforce. He needs the easiest penetrating head this is!

Good Luck!

There are a couple of heads that will work. The Rocky Ironhead XP, Rocket Nail driver and the Steelhead 100 will probably work provided the bow is tuned and only proper shots are taken. These heads have all proved to penetate very well in my tests, especialy for mechanicals.
