Title: Heavy Multiple Blade Head Configuration
Post by: IronCreekArcher on March 19, 2009, 10:19:00 PM
Hey guys I am looking to find a combination of a heavy broadhead (200-250 grains) or broadhead and steel insert combo (200-250 grains) with multiple blades.  I have shot the Woodsman and they whistle a bit...don't know if I care for that.  Any suggestions out there?  The 300 X-treem seems to be xtreem in price as well...  :eek:    Do the Muzzy Phantoms (220 grain 4-blade) whistle?  Is penetration good with them?  I shoot a 49lb Black Widow PMA with a 550 to 600 grain arrow.  Thanks in advance ladies and gentlemen...

razorcaps come up to 200 gr, snuffers can be weighted with steel adapters.

As Hattrick mention, the Muzzy Phantoms whistle and are dull right out of the package.  IMHO....you should go with a good sharp cut on contact 2 blade with your setup. Just my 2 cents worth which you did not ask for....I know.

A Zwickey 4 blade on a long adapter would be silent as there's no venting, and offer lots of cutting too.

Razorcaps are silent for me but I also have the 125 snuffers with 75gr steel inserts inside and they fly quite too,,, only way to really tell I think is to have someone stand off to the side down at the target but I really havent done that yet.

finally I use the same bow and weight as you and my choice for hogs next month is STOS 145gr 2-blades with long 42gr adaptors--> dead quiet and fly perfect and with worn-in parabolics I doubt theres any hint of whats coming to whats on the revieving end with my heritage it totals 560grains total from a 50# recurve.
