| Arrow - | Easton 2018 Aluminum with Easton Trooper shafts glued inside. Lumenoks added to nock end.1100 total grains w/broadhead. |
| Broadhead - | Muzzy Phantom SS (Stainless Steel) 200 grains, 2-blade double bevel. (Bleeders were removed). |
Photo shows the Muzzy Phantom far rib split after already passing through the shoulder blade.
Results - While this shot should never be deliberately taken, we were astonished at the results. The 1100 grain Phantom tipped arrow passed through the shoulder blade into the body cavity before dead-centering a rib on the far side and splitting it. If we didn't test this ourselves, we would never have believed it. Again, while this shot would have killed the buffalo, it should never be considered.hThere
