When it comes to broadhead rotation, our lab and field tests have presented clear observations that single bevel broadheads not only rotate during flight (with offset or helical vanes), but maintain that rotation through the animal.
A double bevel broadhead, alternatively, rotates during flight (with offset or helical vanes) and stops rotation upon hitting and passing through the animal.
Want to do a simple test yourself? Shoot a single bevel broadhead into a foam target and try pulling it out. When pulling it out, you will find you need to rotate the arrow in order to follow the entry hole back out. Next, shoot a double bevel, and notice that you will be able to pull that straight out.
When single bevels rotate through an animal, additional trauma is created and the internal rotation props open the hole for better blood loss. The result is better blood trails and a quicker, more ethical recovery.
