Default broadhead for elk/moose?

Anyone out there use the steelforce phatheads? my local pro at the archery shop recommended these heads. they look good and tough, just wondering how they shoot compared to a field point. seems like slicktrick bh's could be a good choice too. i shoot 63# with a epic st 400 and 100gr.

Thunderheads and Muzzy's are pretty proven heads in my opinion. 125's work well on elk.

For elk i would not be afraid to use the rage (if legal). Buddies and I went 5 for 5 last year in colorado all using the rage. 1 buddy shot a 450 + lb cow at 48 yards, hitting a rib going in. I had shot two other elk before and liked what they did but his rib shot realy sold me on them.
