What does the question have to do with the number of blades on the broadhead? What are you planning to shoot and how big? For most average size deer, hogs and black bear, as well as for turkeys, either a two or three blade would work fine. For big deer hogs and black bear at that draw weight and draw length, I would prefer to use a two blade.

I prefer cheap as I can find, and sharpen cleaner than a whistle. Doesn't matter to me how many blades sharp. You put the steel in front of me, I'll figure a way to get it sharp.
Turkey and the deer aren't going to be available to vote on this one.

You could always just go for the sure thing. The Grizzly or the Zwickee Eskimo.

Look at my signature. All of my bows are considered lightweight. I use a 2 blade glue on STOS 145 grain broadhead glued to a 36 grain screw-in Zwickey long broadhead adapter. STOS are tough and the points don't curl when they hit bone.

Either will work...just make sure they are super sharp. Limit your shots to broadside or slightly quartering and you will be fine.   :thumbsup:

I didn't see a three blade head in the poll. If you want a three blade, I think the Woodsman Elite would work great. Long and lean!

I think it depends on what you are hunting and what will fly better for you.

A sharp two blade head has NEVER let me down.  I've shot Zwickeys over twenty years and hope to another forty... Yeah!
