A super sharp one, with a good tuned bow.

RE: 85 gr. broadhead
something that is cut on contact, like the old fred bear broadheads.

RE: 85 gr. broadhead
When I first started bowhunting with a 45-50# bow, I was using a Satelitte cut on contact head. I used the 100 grain ones, but did not put on the 2 additional blades. Killed 5 deer using this setup.

Slick Trick all the way

RE: 85 gr. broadhead
Just becuase your only pulling 50lbs doesn't mean that you have to shoot 85 grn heads. You should be able to move up into the 100 grn range and expand your options a great deal. That is unless your arrows are right on the edge of being spined properly. My first choices would be a magnus stinger or possibly the 85 grn slick trick. You can check out my website www.broadheadtests.com I have some tuning info along with a few articles on broadheads for low draw weight bows. The main thing is to make sure your bow is tuned well, and you put shots where they belong. At 50lbs of draw weight you main concern is going to be accuracy and penetration.

RE: 85 gr. broadhead
I was thinking the same thing. Why would you want to use such a light head if you are pulling 50#'s.

RE: 85 gr. broadhead
I'd recommend a weight set or maybe a gym membership.

RE: 85 gr. broadhead
do you want more speed or knock down power ?
With my 85gr I will get pass thrus... If I go heavier I won't get a pass through.. 46lbs - axis 340's - 85 gr tip --- 22 yards shot my doe thru and thru.. What more would you need? |
RE: 85 gr. broadhead
thunderhead 85 grain is the way to go

do you want more speed or knock down power ? With my 85gr I will get pass thrus... If I go heavier I won't get a pass through.. Not real sure of your reasoning. Is that because your bow will be out of tune if you go with a heavier head? |
