Cut on Contact?
 
What would ya'll recommend for a COC broadhead.
I don't like Hole punchers or Mechanicals, no offense folks, I just don't.
I'm lookin at about 75-85 gr. range.
Ideas? I like the look of Montecs but hear they're hard to sharpen.

Let's be honest.....

If my 125gr Muzzy .......is shot out of my 71# Bowtech Allegiance........

Do you think it's going to cut .....on contact?

Really, No offensefolks. I just don't care for hole-punchers. Muzzys are great broadheads. If I was going with a chisel-point, it'd be Muzzy for sure.

For a true cut-on-contact style, I suggest Simmons Sharks and Magnus. If you go to the Simmons site, it doesn't show it yet, but they are making a smaller version of the Razor Shark this year called the Mako in 85 grains (and 100 grains). Magnus makes a 85 grain Stinger that is great as well. I think Steel Force and Sonic/American might have a COC that light, but I can't recommend them as I've never used them. In order to get more selection, you either have to jump up to 100 grains or shoot chisel tips.

Hope that helps a little.

In that weight range, I would go with the Magnus as well. I've checked out the Sonics, and I just don't like them, can't really put my finger on it, but they just don't do it for me. Plus, with the 85 grain Magnus, you still get a good cutting diameter. If you are looking to go up to 100 grains, I think the Muzzy Phantom is the best COC head out there right now. Any reason you are stuck at 85 grains?

Hey Deep....

I wasn't offended.....I'm just trying tointerject somerealism. My hunting arrow weighs in at 460gr+. My 3D arrows are traveling over 300fps.....so my hunting arow isn't far behind. I think ANYTHING my Muzzy touches......it's gonna "cut on contact".

If you're shooting a much lower KE setup.......I guess it matters. I guess????

A standard muzzy is not condsidered a cut on contact head, a muzzy phantom is. I know some people though that sharpen the trocar tip on the standard muzzy, so I guess that's pretty darn close.

Wish I could help you Deep, but I have never used that light of a head. I have used pretty much every COC head in the 125-220 grain range though. My favorites being Stinger and Phantom.

Not really sure what you are looking for, but the New RAGE two and three blade mechs. are nice. fly true for me anyways

I like the steel force heads, just don't get the ones with the serrated edges. Sort of defeats the purpose of using a cut on cantact head.

Are you a kid that is pulling 35 - 40 pounds? If not why do you want such a light weight broadhead. You literally have dozens of more choices in the 100 grain weight than you do itn the "less than" 100 grain weight.
