Yes. Arrow stuck 2 feet into the dirt behind it.  480lb bear last year full pass through as well along with a 3 point blacktail full pass through. Very happy with these broadheads.

So many outfitters ban mechanical broadheads I'm hesitant to go there but damg thats impressive.   On the wetside you need something to drop em quick.

Historically past designs sometimes fail to open or break on impact.    Mayb the newer ones have solved the problem - the rear opening sounds much less likely to fail ?
