RE: Broadhead Poll
* Started out shooting Thunderheads and G5 Montecs. Took one (ill-advised) shot with the G5....but never gave it a real chance.
* 2006 - Started the season with mechanicals (rockets). Took one shot (poor shot) and then sought the advice of friends I trusted.....who knew my set-up and my abilities....and went to a heavier (125gr) BH - Muzzy 3-blade.
- Took 5 deer with this head.....with only one being a complete pass-thru.
* 2007 - Started the season with the same 125gr Muzzy. Didn't EVER like the blood trails I was getting with the head....and decided to switch to a larger cutting surface.
- Took 2 deer with the Muzzy....with 2 complete pass-thrus.
- Switched to the Rage 2-blade.....achieving INCREDIBLE entrance holes and INCREDIBLE blood trails. 5 of 7 animals taken with this head were complete pass-thrus. KE was over 76FP's.

RE: Broadhead Poll
I've used a lot of broadheads and the vast majority have performed well. My vote was for the Spitfires because I have taken more deer with them than any other broadhead and they have a 100% recovery record for me.
With that said I will be trying out new broadheads yet again and will be shooting Innerloc Falcons and Innerloc 3 blade EXPs. I'm pretty excited about the Falcons because I'll be using them on my first ever bear hunt. I like the EXPs too because they are nearly identical to the Spitfires, but have a better method for changing out the blades making them reusable.
Who knows, maybe they'll be at the top of my list next year.
