He's lucky that the bear knew some pro wrestling moves and wasn't serious about tearing him up.

I've never used expandable broadheads personally, but my hunting buddy gave my son some to try a couple of years ago. They are still in my closet new in the package. They aren't terribly visible before they deploy and expand on contact. The longer "arms" on the blades are tucked tight to the arrow shaft, sometimes even held with rubber bands on the older models. The expandbles haven't been legal in Oregon for very many years. Honestly, I couldn't really make out much from the video, other than it sure didn't look like any standard fixed broadhead I've ever seen.Blades are visible, and seemed more visible than an expandable head should show. But it sure weren't no bigazz Zwickey head!
My best guess is a short, light, fixed (replaceable) blade. Much like a Slick Trick and others all the rage now, and I agree would be "out of place" on such a bow.I've never used expandable broadheads personally, but my hunting buddy gave my son some to try a couple of years ago.

Absolutely! For some reason, when I hit the Play arrow it starts at 29 seconds. I had to back it up to see the first 28 seconds, and I agree completely with your assessment.0:15/0:16 looks like regular broadhead to me, but i don't archery
Please stay on topic with the OP.Not to put too fine a point on it, buuuuut... Everytown is a blatantly-biased anti-gun organization of soccer moms who have no idea how firearms work and wear that ignorance as a badge of honor.
They think you can buy an M16 at Big5.
BAN SCHOOL BUSES, NOT GUNS!!As of 2020 a K-12 student in the United States was 20X more likely to die in a school bus crash than from gunfire inside his or her school. But I never saw a group of concerned parents called "Everytown For School Bus Safety."
10mm deff on the table, but looking for a revolver. Someone also recommended a less powerful .44 round. So I think we're gonna explore a coupla options. Thanks for your input.10mm
15 rounds
5" barrel
Yeah that's what I'm looking for. Something that he can get off a follow-up shot just in case. The bigger challenge is, TBH, the "talk."Other options might include a .41 mag or just carry his existing .44 mag with something akin to a .44 Special +P or lighter loaded .44 mag? I know that my S&W 629 can blast the heck outta the hand with a stout load and the shorter barrel!
Yeah, i hear ya. I've had to have a similar talk with my pops... not in any shape to carry what he wants into the woods anymore. Hell, he can hardly get around on level pavement anymore and he still wants to go up into the hills.Yeah that's what I'm looking for. Something that he can get off a follow-up shot just in case.

So hard to watch them in that last stage, isn't it? I mean only ten years ago, pop could beat me in arm wrestling. Now I don't even try any more b/c i can't stand the agony of winning. Our dads are such a gift.Yeah, i hear ya. I've had to have a similar talk with my pops... not in any shape to carry what he wants into the woods anymore.
