i asked the same question last deer season....  i was told that the man who invented muzzy bh is a trad hunter.  i'm sure they will do their part if you do yours.

Trocar tips designed and used by a trad hunter John Musachia. Scratch that I think they were a mideval design?? but that dude brought them to what they are today. anywhoo

They work -

I know of a guy and his hunting partner that have killed 60 elk between them with the trocar tipped muzzy heads. Shooting them out of recurves and longbows in the 54-57 pound range with 500-525 grain arrows. Sounds like they work to me.

they are great broadheads. but we all know how some folks are. if G. fred or one of the other authorities came out and said they were great, there would be a totally different song to sing.

I tried the 4-blade glue-ons many years ago, but they broke shooting them into hay bales with the practice blades in place. The aluminum ferrules didn't hold up. I never hunted with them. Murphy's Law dictates a stronger head for me.

Yes, they will work!

Kind of suprised of the negative comments.

As some mentioned, they were originally designed for traditional.

Between compound and recurve have probably killed 50 deer using the 3 and 4 blade muzzy, all 125 grain.  Its a good head, I did try to sharpen the trocar head.  I still have some 4 blades left that might see some action this season.
