Broadheads

[Caribou Dreamer2]

What is everybody favorite size of broadheads grain that it??

I use 100 grain spitfire but was maybe thinking about going back to either 125 muzzies or 100 thunderheads will have to try them and see what fly better.Up for suggestion on fixed blade if anybody has any??

[Q2XL]

was shootin spitfire but goin back to MUZZY 100s

[Steve]

Try the 125 grain B52's. It will bust through cinder blocks.

I use 100 grain 3 blade Thunderheads. Never lost a deer and all I have shot have fell in sight of my stand.;)

3 Blade 100gr Muzzy!! Bad to the Bone:D

old fred bear razorheads/125 gr. 2bld.

This past season I shot Wensel Woodsmans and Zwickeys. Killed a doe with the Zwickey on the end of an ash arrow that I made. Have no complaints about those heads. Shot a squirrel with the WW. Those were an easy head to tune. This year I am going to be using the 125 grain WW with a 125 grain steel insert on the end of a Carbonwood arrow. I wouldnt mind getting some different broadheads to try but dont want to spend the money for the 6 packs. Anybody up for a broadhead swap?

[george tinkham]

i will probably be giving the wensels a test soon...i've used a lot and always seem to end up back with what i used in 1964

[Caribou Dreamer2]

Better be careful george giving away your age here:D

I think i will give the old thunder heads a try this year and see how they perform

[george tinkham]

even though i dont use coneheads or trocar tips anymore the 125 thunderhead is one of the best i've used...when i did my part well it always resulted with pass thrus with the 125 3 bld. thunderhead...i rate it more accurate then my 2 blds and easier to tune but not quite as good a penetrater as the 2blades or cut on impact...it takes much more pressure to run them thru your hand...

One you see one of these:

You'll never go back to anything else.

Steve nice looking blade,Do you shoot these out of a compund or trad. equipment,If out of compound how is the tuning,do you get much planing from this broadhead.Might look into then they look good,How is the performance end results

[Turkeyfoot]

Steve.....Looks like a good head, very similar to the two blade Snuffers I am now using. I like the new idea of machined heads as others have to be glued and spun tested repeatedly to get em straight. Expense is one drawback for most archers, but if they are consistent in flight and killing efficency they're worth every penny! The two blade Snuffers are now discontinued and getting hard to find. I was lucky to find a six pack at Buckeye Outdoors and they have a few left if anyone is looking looking for them! May have to look at the B-52's in the future.....TF

100 grain Steelforce !!!!!

[mikenbow]

125 gr. thunderheads have never failed me. However, I must say they are very hard to tune with my current set up. They fly nothing like my field points. I like them though.

[Ðe§perado™]

Sounds like your you need to paper tune your bow. Maybe it's a bit off. I have never had a problem with tuning thunderheads. Just get the bow shooting bullet holes though paper and throw on a thunderhead and there you go. Hitting in a group the first shot out. But this is what I have seen with my bow.

[lakefork archery]

I have sold alot of Steelforce 100gr and have gotten very good feedback on penatration and arrow flight.I'm going to try some myself this fall.

mike might not be the broadhead , could be the arrow have you tried an offset or helical vane or fletch. With broadheads too it's better to be slightly over spined that slightly under spined.

[george tinkham]

b52,nice name...i may check into them

[Aimrite]

Ive used 100 grain spitfires with excellent resuts. Now Im using 4 blade muzzy 100 grain. These heads have 1" diameter but actualy have more cutting surface than 125 grain 3 blade muzzy.
I shoot 28" Carbon Express with weight tubes 4" feathers fletched left helical.
They fly beautiful with this setup for me.

[george tinkham]

one thing i have learned using trad. equip...cut on impact definately is the best penetrater...not saying they are the best overall head but they lead in this category

[Thunderflight]

I've had great success with 100 grain 3 blade Muzzies.

I'm going to try using expandables on turkeys this year. I just bought a pack of Rocket 90 grain Slammerheads off of ebay.com.

[george tinkham]

seems like them xpandables are the ticket on turkeys thuflt

[shrivl]

I shoot 125 snuffers and 125 muzzys.

[Spitfire]

They have performed above and beyond the call of duty for me. Hey C.D., you need some 125 muzzy heads let me know I only have about 3dz. here at the house that never get used.

[Caribou Dreamer2]

Hay spitfire thanks for the offer,will have to take you up on your offer if i decide to go this route this year,I can never make up my mind untill sept. thenit to late and i usually just pull out the old spitfire and screw it back on but i'm wanting to go back to fixed blades again though.

[Spitfire]

Why are you wanting to go back to fixed blade? Those expandables have worked pretty good for you I thought.

[Caribou Dreamer2]

Yes they have worked great but just a change i guess,Those spitfires have killed alot of deer in the past for me but would just like a change,but you know me i will show up on opening morning with those spitfire in the quiver as usual more than likely,but if i can find some time this summer i like to shoot some fixed blades again and get them tuned in real good then i willstick with the fixed blade,Not changing for any bad reasons spitfires are a good head

[Spitfire]

Heard that! They put a hurtin on those deer. They have yet to fail for me but w/ all that kinetic energy they don't have a choice but to open.

[george tinkham]

its always interesting to try new heads...bout all will do the job if the hunter does his

[Ðe§perado™]

Great point george. I have killed deer with a field point before. It's in all things coming together at the time of truth. If you don't practice ,no matter what bow, arrow, or broadhead you use won't do the job.
