Broadhead Fascination?

RE: Broadhead Fascination?
I am a little bit of both. I always use the Rocket Steelhead 100 as my goto head but I am constantly tinkering with new heads each year. The latest crop of super short replacement blade broadheads has my interest at the moment.

RE: Broadhead Fascination?
I started hunting with a cheap broadhead that flew bad and I didn't know anything about tuning to understand the importance and after the season I read everthing I could about hunting and asked tons of questions at the archery shop and switched to thunderheads for about 5 yrs and wasn't happy with them, then switched to Muzzy's and have been shooting them ever since.I shoot Spitfire's when I take my sons early season so if I shoot one the blood trail is more profuse for them to track. They are very good trackers for 5 and 7 and tracked two deer all bythemselves last year

I kind of tinker with new broadheads to see what they do. I remember starting out with a cheap broadhead calleda"Golden Key Deadhead" It was like a poor man's Thunderhead. But the blades went in either in right offset or left offset. What a weird broadhead!! It never flew right no matter what. Word to the wise when tinkering... NEVER mount the blades on a broadhead (Golden Key Deadhead) in a left offset, when your fletchings are right offset! You will have some interesting arrow experiences!
Anyway, I shot Thunderheads for a few years, then I discovered Magnus Stingers and now recently discovered Slick Tricks.

I like to tinker with new heads that come out. My goto head has been the NAP Scorpion XP but I tried the Wasp Sharpshooter and it will be in my quiver this season. I think it is funny that some people are so dead set against trying new broadheads when they buy a new bow each year. Technology advances in every part of bowhunting.

ButchA, my first broadhead was odd too. I think the name of it was Magnum or something like that and it was slotted for two to six blades, your choice. I think it sold in a three pack with nine blades. I was so young and inexperienced I shot one six and a three and left one for a back-up with no blades. I figured the more blades the better--wrong. That thing must have weighed a ton.
