RE: CUT ON IMPACT HEADS?
Navy, just want to point out some pretty good research that has been done by Dr. Ashton. You may want to take a look at it. It was discussed here on the thread. Don' t know if it answers your question or not, but it provides some real data.

RE: CUT ON IMPACT HEADS?
Navy, what' s your point? If you shoot a broadhead at the same velocity as a slug, I' m betting the broadhead would out penetrate. Noone is saying chisel heads won' t penetrate, they just don' t penetrate as well.

RE: CUT ON IMPACT HEADS?
My point is shooting not pushing.
I' m only trying to apply common sense, of which my wife says I have very little
It just makes sense to me that if it takes less pressure to " push" a COI head through hide than a chisel tip head, why should that change if you are " pushing" faster? Why would the " pushing" force suddenly make a difference that allows the chisel tip to penetrate better?
Properly place, on a whitetail, I don' t think it makes a difference, both heads will do the job. Apparently according to Dr. Ashton' s real world testing, shooting a cape buffalo with both styles, one head clearly comes out the winner.
