I'm trying to decide on broadheads for next year's Sweat hunt (yeah yeah, I know it's early, but I gotta do something!)
I'm told it's going to be mainly hogs we're after.
I've got a fair arsenal of heads;
Zwickey Delta 2-blade,
Zwickey Delta 4-blade,
Snuffers
Woodsmen.
They're all inserted to 200gn, they all fly like lazers & I can get them all ridiculusly sharp.
All other things being equal, which would you choose to hunt big piggies with & why? (Oh, I'm shooting a 59# at my draw Horne's Combo longbow with a total arrow weight of 600gn)
I would go with the snuffers. I like the extra cutting width and with your setup i don't think penetration will be a problem.
i like the woodsman.........and snuffer's too......
Zwickey Delta's 2 or 4 blade.
Any of the Simmons heads. They all seem to fly great.
Well, that's one vote for every head I own, plus one I don't! More opinions needed yet! :D
I don't think you could beat the Woodsman with a stick. But that is just me.
Rob"O"....I see a BIG OLE MAGNUS I with a Bleeder Blade mounted up front or maybe a Zwickey Eskimo. Better yet would be a 195 grain Campbell Trade Point :readit:
What Vance said!!
POP
Guess I'd vote for the Delta 2-blade. Why? Penetration of 2-blade plus cutting width. I'm a rookie compared to most of you guys, but I've learned I'd rather hit one in a good spot with a bad broadhead than to hit one in a bad spot with a good broadhead.
Woodsman. I blew through a big, fat hog with mine and my 61# Border. Went 30 yards max and no wondering where it went!
I don't think it is a matter of performance but "personal prefrance". If it were me i would shoot a razor sharp two blade. I would also a carry a snuffer in my quiver. I've shot a few deer with both heads, but I have yet too hunt a hog.
I'd go with the BIG SNUFFER.
Show no mercy!! :thumbsup:

How's the middle of September sound? 19th-27th. Soon enough? :D
I'll be kicking around East Tennesee with The Wife for a week's hunting. Property hunting that is!
Thanks so far y'all. Keep 'em coming...
Rob, I think you should forge up your own points...make 'em any size & weight you want! Doc
You have listed all very good heads, imho. Take em all and shoot one with each head. My quiver typically has 2-3 different heads in it and I chose whichever one to shoot on a whim because I know all will do the job equally well. Variety...one of the spices of life!
fuggedaboutit! Pick one, shoot that...you'll do fine.
Yea, I agree with Cosmo Ray. CK
Come on fellas...Don't make it so easy on the LAD :scared: :scared:
Ya all know he thrives on CONFUSION :readit: :biglaugh:
SNUFFERS Yep SNUFFERS
BIG pigs,
No contest, 2 blade of any well made broad head, ie Zwickey, Magnus.
Stay away from the 3 blades.
Just my opinion.
Have fun, Bert.
Oh, "That question again" ... I thot you wuz gonna ask "Is 3 pounds enuf fer alley cats?" Or, "Is 7 ounces enuf fer cockroaches?"
It's all fun. No matter.
