This. Everyone has to start somewhere. It’s hard just starting and being an a-hole though.

If you aren't a novice, you should know that a shot (bow or gun) that doesn't have an exit won't leave much blood.

Again, it isn't the broadhead. I've shot a shitpile of deer with different broadheads for 25 years, from 200fps to 300fps, every arrow and broadhead combination. The broadhead marketing these days is just that, marketing. They all kill deer and leave blood trails when shot with a straight-flying arrow placed properly. The differences between mechanical and fixed blades are simple. Fixed blades may give better penetration which is beneficial when a deer is shot through the shoulder or an angled shot (or if shot in the arse), and a mechanical may cut a bigger hole and result in higher recovery percentage when shot placement is too far back (or in neck, high, or any of the other soft places on a deer people somehow hit).

I'm a firm believer in Rage, but if I was going elk hunting or shooting something large I'd shoot fixed FWIW.

I think it must be required or some outfitters require it. I know someone that jut got back from CO and they had to switch to fixed.
