Default RE: broadheads. More oppinions please.

Ditto the 2 blade Zwickey Eskimo.

Because of the lower weight (54#) of my bow, the 4 blade doesn't penetrate as well as the two blades do, which isn't satisfactory to me and the reason that I don't use it. To be totally fair though, I've shot them into a broadhead target, but have never used them on critters, so don't actually know if they will do the job with my bow or not.

Another head that I'm very satisfied with is the Ace brand. I've been playing with a some of their 60s heads that weigh in at 160+ grains and man oh man do they fly good, sharpen well and kill with big gaping and bleeding holes. I just havn't bothered to order any of their newer heads yet, but I will.

The 3 blade Wenzel Woodsman is supposed to be an excellent head, although I've heard it has a weak point that needs to be filed a bit, but that's no problem as I do that with all my hunting heads anyway.

I've shot some of the more modern heads like the titan (tough to sharpen) and I really liked the thunderheads. One tough broadhead.

The best advice I can offer up is that you choose a strong and proven head that flies the best, penetrates the best and leaves a good blood trail, when shot from your bow.

Make em sharp and shoot em straight, or leave em home.
