ART CHAMPOUX
Bad to the bone is MUZZY'S logo. But at Big Als Archery shop we found out that bad through the concrete was also very impressive. Tom Costa's 64 lbs HOYT proved what MUZZY can do.
The Trocar tips, the first company to use one by the way, aluminum ferrule and the stainless steel blades proved beyond a doubt that MUZZY'S hit hard. From the 75 grain to the 130 grain broadhead, MUZZYS performed. Toms' Hoyt draw length was set at 29" and propelled a 27-inch arrow at 290 fps. The bow was fast. All arrows that were shot were aluminum.
The cinder block was set
up at 20 yards away.
The 75 grain screw in head
was the first to be fired. The Trocar tip stuck in the cinder block easily.
The ferrule bent but the tip and blades remained intact. The 90-grain was
fired next. Again the patented Trocar tip stuck deeply into the cinder
block. This time though nothing bent. The tip, ferrule and blades looked
like they came out of the pkg. The only thing that showed any damage was
the aluminum insert the head was screwed into. The arrow was broken at
that point.
Impressive.
The 100 grain 3 blade was
up next. Again the arrow was shot and the MUZZY’S again stuck in the cinder
block. But the results were a little different. The tip, ferrule and blades
were perfectly straight, but the impact pushed the entire head straight
back into the shaft. The tip was protruding from the shaft with the
blades cutting the aluminum shaft in three straight places extending down
the shaft with the edges sticking out like wings from a plane. What
a sight. Remember that the edges that cut the aluminum shaft were DULL.
As this is the back edge of the broadhead.
Of course, this was a controlled
test. I have used is MUZZY’S in the field and that’s where the real rubber
meets the road. Two MUZZY tipped arrows went through
a boars lungs using 60lb WHEEL bow . No cams, no fast flite, no carbon
arrows and at 60 lbs. The results were as impressive as the block test
only I got a real trophy I could use.
DESIGN
5 out of 5
The easiest way to
install a MUZZY is to follow the directions. But I like to screw
the ferrule into the arrow shaft, and then I can hold the arrow to install
blades. To change blades you do not have to take the
head off the shaft. Just undo the tip, put in new blades and
tighten tip.
RUGGEDNESS 5 out of 5
Not only does it go
into cinder blocks and stay together but it also breaks them. This is one
tough line of broadheads.
PRICE 5 out of 5
Competitive with other brands
that give you 3 heads while is MUZZY gives you 6.
FEATURES 5 out of 5
A tip that can be unscrewed
so blades can be replaced without taking the shaft off the arrow
Trocar tips, stainless blades
and a company that stands behind their product. They also offer a
diverse line of models and weights, for carbon or aluminum shafts plus
practice blades.
Final comments:
Strength, durability and
a price you can afford. Regardless of the particular model you choose,
you get a tough head for any size game that will do the job you need to
bring your trophy home.
