If pulling 60 pounds I would stick with a 3 blade chisel type fixed blade broadhead. Wasp Hammer SST are good as well as the new WASP boss heads.

Im pulling around 60 lbs myself and am planning on shooting 85 grain 3 blade thunder heads. So far at 20 and 30 yards they are dead on. A buddy of mine is shooting a wasp broadhead and they seem to shoot well from what Ive seen. Not sure which one it is.

IMHO it is hard to beat a muzzy 3 blade especially with my experience at that draw weight when i was younger.

I just switched to the Muzzy three blade - they sure fly nice. I also like the practice blades. They pull out of foam targets real nice. Muzzy claims they fly the same at the hunting blades. Can't beat the price.

www.broadheadtests.com read through the different pages. It should help you pick the right head for your setup. The mech vs fixed page and the tuning section will be most helpful.

Thanks 5shot, for that broadhead test page! I've used it many times - now I've just got to see the deer this year and I'm ready!

If you are looking for something that I know works, use a Muzzy. Whatever size and number of blades that fits your setup.

But if you are shooting 60 pounds you may have many other options.

I like Thunderheads and have shot them for as long as I can remember. They are tough, sharp, fly well and you can find them almost everywhere. Pick the weight that best fits your setup. Remember there are lots of great broadheads on the market, so find one that shots well with you setup and stick with it....remember to spin test your arrow/broadhead to insure proper accuracy.


Good luck

Ditto on the Thunderheads! I have used them since the mid 1980's and they have served me well enough not to change. Although, I'll be carrying a couple Spitfires this year to try along with my Thunderheads. Good luck in whatever you choose but I think you'll be better served with a fixed blade broadhead.

Maybe even Thunderhead 100-125 would do ya good. If you are pulling 60, a lot of broadheads are allowable. I am going to try out Muzzy 4-blade 125's this year. I love the way they fly so true! *Oh yeah, my 125 Muzzy's can fly out to 45-50 yds. no problem, in fact they were going through my archery target! *
