Can't go wrong with thunder heads or montec G5 either 100gr or 125gr the heavey one is what I would recomend.
those are the two that I either use or have used don't know much about the others but I'm sure you'll get plenty of ideas here.

I agree with Owl, Thunderheads or Montecs and although I use Thunderheads for moose Muzzys are a good head too.

Muzzy, Steelforce or Thunderhead.

Magnus stingers, Muzzys, Wasps, Rocky TI's Nap's new Nitron and Crossfire, etc. The list goes on and on as far as high quality heads go. Pick a weight, tune your bow well and use a high quality head. With your shorter draw length I would consider a cut on contact two blade head to maximize penetration though. Stingers, phantoms, Zwickeys,bear razorheads G5 B52's are all excellent choices.

Take 5 shots advice. Go with a cut on contact. I love Muzzys but I have a friend with a similar short draw/light weight set-up and Stingers have doubled his penetration on large critters like elk. Good luck and be prepared for the addiction of a lifetime!!!!!

5-shot - if you could pick one or two 125 gr broadheads to go chase an Elk with - what would you personally put on the tip of your arrow? :)

I've used Steelforce and this season I'm going with the MontecG5's in 100gr both these heads are top of the line.

Whatever works and shoots well from your bow and is legal.

I use Thunderhead 100's but if my set up were to change I wouldnm't hesitate to use a 75.
