I pulled out my old 1978 herters last spring and have taken two hogs and 1 doe with so far. Its nice to get back with and old friend.

As for shafts, id go with soft spin and start cutting about a half inch off at a time until you marry it to your bow. Carbons, aluminum, or wood will will work fine. As for broad heads, I like Muzzys and have recently been using sonics. Im really likeing the sonics, but the Muzzy three blades are fine as well. Another i have used with traditional gear is slick tricks. Slick tricks are hard to get sometimes and that is why I have not shot them in a while.

Good luck.
