There are tradeoffs when shooting a fixed blade broadhead with slighter blood trails and lesser wound channels. But fixed blade broadheads are known for handling bone, remaining durable, and solid penetration. Can mechanical broadheads bust through a mature buck shoulder? And, if so, how do well do mechanical broadheads survive the "trauma" of hitting a shoulder? In today's episode, Jacob shares the results from his recent field test where he shot the 125 grain versions of the Beast broadhead, a Rage Hypodermic broadhead, a Sevr 2.0 broadhead, and a T2 broadhead into 4 separate mature buck shoulders. The results were interesting. Thanks for listening. Find Hunt Detail on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/hunt_detail/ or YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@HuntDetail…

Steve lands the interview with one of his most-highly sought-after guests in this episode. Al Metcalf of Barnesville, Georgia is a tree dog enthusiast like no other. His transformation from a 32-year veteran of the Georgia Highway Patrol to what can only be described as the renaissance man of tree dog enthusiasts, Medcalf is a throwback to a time when men hunted for food and the tree dog was essential to their survival. Medcalf’s mantra “If it climbs, it’s not trash” and his waste-not-want-not attitude toward tree game reveal the soul of a real hunter and woodsman, the kind rarely seen today. Medcalf hunts a mixed bag of Plotts, Mountain Curs and Plott/Cur crosses, with little concern for popular breeds or bloodlines and proves, when the record button turns red, to be a storyteller par excellence. You’re going to love this episode. We would like to thank those who support this podcast. Special thanks to Alpha Dog Nutrition and Double U Hunting Supply for sponsoring this episode.
