The stainless steel fixed blade broadhead proved most effective, passing completely through the Saran Wrap ball.

This video tests the penetration power of a 70 lb compound bow against a 5-gallon water jug. A field tip arrow penetrated but did not cause significant leakage, with the entry hole appearing to self-seal. In contrast, a broadhead arrow passed completely through the jug, causing substantial leakage, demonstrating its greater effectiveness for hunting applications.
