New to fixed blades- overthinking it?

Decades ago, Bear changed their point on the razor head to a chisel. I don't know why for sure, but my guess is better penetration. That head is similar without the chisel point.

I’ve killed plenty with a 2-blade stinger buzzcut and traditional archery tackle. They work great for me.

I’ve been shooting Stingers for……..20 years?

I have never had reason to change.

Great heads.

I had one Stinger do what Roosie's did, I think it was a bad screw. Plus the 4 blade stingers are a 1/2 ferrule.

I wanted more of a 2.5 to 1 blade angle and stronger design so I went to the German Jeager head and have been shooting them since. Plus they are a lot cheaper. I don't feel the need for an expensive super steel head, the Jaegers have held up really well on multiple uses.
