Default RE: Broadhead Questions from a Novice

I prefer fixed blades, 3 blades (Thunderhead 100s to be exact).

If you have a setup pushing reasonable KEyou could go with a mech head. Some of them have really large cutting diameters which helps in tracking and recovery.

Dont fall into the trap that mechs will fly like a field point though. Most often they do, but that is something that must be checked. Agood fixed blade BH (squarely seated to the arrow) will also fly just like a fp out of most bows. And if not, its just a simple matter of tuning till it does.

Post your setup, and we could give you a better idea of what broadheads to look at.

Above all, make sure you shoot broadheads out of your bow. Afterall, they are what get loosed at living animals.

Take care, and welcome to the boards.----Matt
