I can't over emphasize that! WAITING is so important; I've even seen it with gun hunters. I've been hunting since Jesus was in high school and I still get anxious to see what I shot; but I have to force myself to GIVE IT TIME.
Use the broad head that you shoot best (shot placement is more important than cutting diameter). I like to shoot heavy; I've been using Muzzy Phantom 220 gn for years because I like the KE and I can knock the sneakers off a rattlesnake at 40 yards with my set up.
