Use jb weld on one of them. Instant practice point! 
A touch of frost has heightened your awareness and your heart steadily beats in anticipation. Your senses are suddenly alert to the movement on the forest floor and you realize that the moment of truth is at hand.
Re: Trailblazer 150
I was thinking that but I wonder if it would hold up
Re: Trailblazer 150
My experience with the 150 trailblazer. I hit forward on a doe at 30 yards broadside and caught shoulder, got about 6 inches penetration. Arrow broke and lost deer ( called tracker dog, we found bed but tracker believes deer will live ).
Next day switched back to swhacker, another doe came to same exact spot. Again I hit forward and caught shoulder. This time penetrated clear to nock, she ran 40 yards and expired.
My takeaways :
1. I made 2 poor shots (or they both ducked a little forward.
2. I wonder if the 3 blades of the trailblazer slowed down the penetration as compared with the 2 blades of the swhacker.
For me, jury is still out on trailblazer, but I've learned my lesson to not fix something that ain't broken ( havent lost a deer yet with swhacker and all have died within sight ).

Re: Trailblazer 150
I appreciate the ideas.. I was thinking of trying some for next year. I always liked a good mechanical just for accuracy..
Re: Trailblazer 150
Soak the head in acetone to remove any manufacturing oils, dry well and use a toothpick to spread JB weld in the important areas . build up a little in front of the closed blades. I have hundreds of shots with mechanicals JB welded shut. Cleaning is important.
