Fixed blade or expandable?

What is your opinion on using fixed blades or expandables? Or is there a situation where you would use one for one type of hunt and the other for a differant type of hunt?

I have used both and have determined that fixed blades are more reliable.

I tend to agree Kerry. There is more that mechanically can go wrong with expandables. I do shoot both though depending on what I am hunting. Larger animals, definately fixed blade.

What fixed blades do you guys use and what are your draw back weights?

Both have there advantages the draw back with fixed is it can take a good bit of time to tune your flexhings so they fly true I love the f16 fixes blade and the cheep quap pro for small game

I think it may be very convenient. You can easily compare prices in different countries and find your dream hunting. Your opinion is highly needed!
