What kind of broadhead do you use?

100 gr Wacem heads
100 gr 4 blade Magnus stingers
100 gr Wasp Jack Hammers
100 gr Muzzy 4 blade

I believe that 5shot tested the eastman heads.. and they had issues w/ the blades either breaking or coming loose... Which I have severe issues w/ even using.

Well,

They may break in the woods,I don't know,But I shot the same one five times into the heart of my 3D target at 10 yards and it never even bent,In fact when I pulled it out it went right back to the closed position,the rubber band didn't even break,It just rolled back and let the blades open,

But like I said,They may not do that on the woods,I mean if I hit bone or something then it might break,

I use those and some of the grim reapers,But I always get the 100 gr...

You do realize that once you shoot your broadheads into the foam 3D target, they get extremely dull. You now have to dissassemble the broadhead. Clean out all the trget material, sharpen the blades or replace them, before you hunt with them.
If you don't resharpen them they won't cut very good when you hunt.

If your broadhead won't cut a rubber band with very little presure it isn't sharp enough.

Don't go hunting with a dull broadhead..
