I've never had any trouble with a muzzy there is a reason they haven't changed in years. If its not broke don't change it

The link doesn't work for me. At least the video doesn't.

As for Muzzy, good broadhead, especially for the time years ago but most broadhead manufacturers have since thickened their blades but Muzzy hasn't.

Nice of them to bring back some of the old Rocky Mountain heads.  If you like it...buy it.  Better than most out there these days.

As for Muzzy, good broadhead, especially for the time years ago but most broadhead manufacturers have since thickened their blades but Muzzy hasn't.

How thick is thick enough?  Thicker the blade the steeper the hone and the harder it is to get them to cut well.  Deeper the vents the more oxygen vacuumed into the wound and the faster coagulation sets in.  The thicker the blades the more displacement of air and drag you have in flight.  Thick blades are great when you are shooting steel drums and sinter blocks.  But how thick is thick enough when it comes to shooting animals.

I've killed literally hundreds with the old Savora .015" blade out of the Swept-Wing broadhead.  Never one single failure.  Was I just lucky?  Or was it thick enough?  I've had failures with .027" Thunderheads.  Was that not thick enough?  I've taken a couple dozen animals with the old .015" WASP Cam-Lok without a single failure.  Luck?  Or was it thick enough.  Shot one animal with the Magnus Stinger and had a failure.  Was that not thick enough?

I think blade thickness is a great topic for selling broadheads and shooting steel barrels.  In killing anything moose and smaller I just don't see it being an issue.  And there is some solid science that leads one to believe that thick enough to hold together and thin enough to optimize flight and terminal performance is better than the thickness required to kill a steel drum and cement blocks.

Just to be clear.  I am in no way a Muzzy fan.  Been trying to talk guys out of using them for more than 20 years.  It's just the blade thickness debate that drives me insane. >:(

I do think the new company embracing the Barrie Rocky Mountain side will be a great influence and benefit to the product line.
