pass through or not what do you prefer

Hi everyone there are some awesome forums on this site. As for after making the perfect shot with your bow or crossbow on big game animals deer bear elk etc. What do you prefer a pass through or not?
I was just curious what everyone thought on the subject.

 

Um...
















Really?

 

I can’t think of a single reason as to why a non-pass through would be better than a pass through. Two holes is always better than one

I would hope that the only answer you get is pass through. There is no comparison for getting a blood trail. If someone tells you differently, you need to find another mentor.

 

Always a pass thru

I think I have an idea where this question is coming from...

And since it's his first post, I'm going to call him out as trolling, but I think I know why he's trolling; not that I approve or agree with it.

 

If it was a perfect shot isn't the answer clear?

 

Pass through every time with a leaking exit wound.

Grenade tipped Rambo arrows....you want them to detonate on the inside. But that's it.

 

If you don't get a pass through, is there not some benefit of the deer running/moving with broadhead inside them just tearing them up? Pass through is obviously better, but just an interesting thing to think about.

 

I have heard people make that comment before. But I always want a pass through.
1. I want 2 holes and a lot of blood
2. If it don't pass through chances are my arrow gets broke and I have lost $15 broadhead.

 

No. The arrow clogs the hole and you get little to trail on. You want a pass through.

 

When I was a kid, wanting to leave the broadhead in the deer was the idea, because bows didn't have the power today. Today, you clearly want a kill shot with a pass through. The only time there might be debate is on a bad shot.

 

I had a guy tell me once that he does not want a pass through because he thinks with one hole there will be more pressure in the chest cavity which creates a better blood trail.

I fully disagree but OP may have heard the same tail...

 

I have always shot heavy poundage with heavy arrows. I draw a line through the animal and execute the shot. The ideal shot is entrance hole high, exit hole low, blood trail immediate. In most cases I can see the animal fall in a short distance. Even a heart shot animal will travel 30 to 100 yards from the shot site. Depending on terrain, vegetation, water etc. you want the best blood trail for the fastest recovery. Two holes will provide that while one hole will only work AFTER the cavity has pooled enough blood to force it out of the one hole. This will usually make recovery much harder because you are left with pin size blood specs for the first part of the trail and the real blood trail starts a few feet from where the animal is now laying.

 

I line my three blade Snuffers up with the fletching and hone them to super sharp so they pass through with just a tickle. More holes the better the blood trail.

 

Do you really honestly believe this?

 

I like to pass thru then bank off a tree and then have the broadhead stay in the deer.... But that's just me.

 

Pass thru every time!
