I used to shoot thunderhead 100s and I won't go back. Between my dad and I we shot five deer with them and everytime the aluminum ring behind the blades broke. I don't like field dressing an animal knowing there might be broken blades inside.

Thunderheads. Used them for years and years, then tried Muzzys for 2 years because of all the hypeand went back to Thunderheads, never should have switched to begin with.

Between Thunderheads and Spitfires, if both are flying perfect why would you want Spitfires. Thunderheads would be a garuantee, etc..

STINGERS..........But if your set on the others...Thunderheads. My uncles shot them for years...they did switch to Stingers this year though after they shot mine. Spitfires do damage...I just would never shoot expandables.

I'm waiting on my Wac em's to arrive. I've heard they fly great! I'm either going with those or slick tricks. Sorry not exactly what you asked for...

Thunderheads are some real good broadheads witha good reputation, I never had any issues with the breaking or anything I was just unable to get any type of pass through with them. The I went to the 4 blade muzzy's, havent had an arrow stick in a deer yet, sail all the way through...,but in my opinion i would choose the Thunderhead over the Spitfires any day. Theres not many heads out there I havent tried. Ive tried most on the market from $2.00-$65.00
