Default Black bear broadhead question?

I have had 2 different opinions on broadhead choice, one person said to stick with fixed broadhead and the guy who owns the bow shop I go to showed me pics of what a mechanical(spitfire)did to a black bear, massive entry wound, tore up a lot of tissue passing through.

For Black bear over bait I would look to leave as big of a hole as you can since they tend to close up & the thick hair keeps from leaving a masive blood trail. A good head to look at in this situation is the Golden Key 'DESTROYER' Dead Head 6. It would leave a massive hole which shouldn't close up at all.

Good Luck!

Somehow I double posted this topic, thanks moonge and greg for the advice. My main question was fixed or mechanical and why?
