Default RE: Best Elk Broadhead

The best broadhead for Elk sized animals is a Cut on Contact head, bar none!! Sure many fixed blade heads have harvested elk, but "COC" are best when you hit undesireable areas, and it does happen.

The ones that are best in the "COC" world are ones that will penetrate the scapula of an elk & reach the lungs!!! This is one of the biggest reasons for unrecovered elk, lack of penetration in areas such as this!!!

Don't be a recipient of this to find out the hard way!!

If you shoot an un-godly amount of KE, (kinetic energy) you can blast through the scapula with the better fixed blades. If you don't, look at Magnus heads, Silver Flames, Razorcaps, Swickeys & the like. You won't be sorry on those marginal hits!!

Not promoting bad hits, but am promoting heads that will get the job done!!!----------------------------------------ElkNut1
