Default Looking for new broadheads

I am looking for some new broadheads for deer. I want to spend between $20-40. For hunting I use LT Whitetail 40/65's, 100 grain. I was thinking muzzy or steel force.

The muzzy seems to be a proven and respected broadhead. I will be trying Montec G5 myself this year.

Try the SteelForce heads........you will not be disappointed. I have seen 4 deer taken with the serrated edge hellfire's 100 grain in the last 2 years and they do an awesome job.......2 of the hits were not great (1 spine) and all deer dropped within 60 yards. They have great penetration and do a ton of damage. I butchered all those deer and many others.......the SteelForce heads leave a wicked wound channel.

Another head I recommend is the Magnus Stinger 4 blade. Wow. Fly as good or better then my fieldpoints and cut like a hot knife through butter. I use them over the SteelForce heads because I can shoot them right up to opening day and just replace the blades and head out to hunt..........oh yea. Both heads come freaky sharp from the box and Magnus has a lifetime guarentee.
