I’ve never used mechanicals, I understand why guys do I’m not knocking them. The trocar has 2 fixed blades at 1” wide and I’m sure the mechanical still cut some right? I’ve seen plenty of deer with 1 1/4” 3 blade fixed with only one hole (no pass through) bleed like crazy. So my point is I’m not sure what you are asking? I would personally not rely on a mechanical but if you do there’s always the chance of one not opening no matter the brand. The trocar still has plenty without opening to cause a blood trail, your issue with blood had less to do with the not blades not opening and more to do with what was hit and where on the deer. Sometimes that just maybe luck, but I highly doubt there’s a remarkable difference in blood between a deer shot with a fixed blade and one shot with a mechanical. It’s mostly in people’s heads. 1000s of animals are shot with both every year.

Are you sure it didn’t open? Do the trocars lock in place when open? I’ve had some of the original grim reapers open, pass through the deer, then find the arrow with the blades closed.
