I'm sold on Muzzys..I shoot real heavy, 220 grain Muzzy Phantoms total arrow weight 543 gn. Giving me 21 % FOC... you can get by with Muzzy 100 Gn. They are awesome in my books. But you'll get as many opinions.

I prefer a COC head and depending on whether or not you are willing to sharpen or replace blades, Id go with a Striker or a Montec.

I'm afraid to say anything with all of the Muzzy users who answered you. You need to get moving with only 13 days to go. I can get Muzzy's to hit where I aim, but my group size is larger than with other heads, but they're accurate enough to 30 yards. I can't stress it to you enough that you must try every head on a target before hunting with it. It's common to switch heads and arrows until you find a combo that flies OK. I've found that even swapping the trocar tips between heads can help with run out and accuracy problems.

In my opinion, I would recommend that you try Slick Tricks. The way that they are built from a single piece of steel eliminates all of the run out issues that are common with other heads. MeanV has the best price and if you order tonight he'll more than likely ship tomorrow.

85gr Magnus Stingers worked real well for me with the same arrows at the same draw weight on a Hoyt. Good luck!
