Default What do you keep in your quiver?

Does anyone carry a selection of bolts when they head out or just stick to broadheads?
I can see it being benificial to have a couple different combo's like a small game head on one or two bolts, unless of course your only target is going to be deer..
Latley, with some help, I have been experimenting with different size vanes, and have found smaller vanes (4") to work very well with a cross wind, so maybe even a vane variance for weather patterns.
Am I looking too deep into this? I have a tendancy to do that every now and then.

Along with my broadhead tipped carbon bolts, I have an aluminum bolt with a field tip for uncocking duty. And an extra battery underneath the foam insert for the scope.
