Assuming you could get the final broadhead weight and flight characteristics correct, ..... Would you rather use a long 42 grain aluminum adapter or a short 75 grain steel adapter?
steel
steel
steel if I can, aluminum if I have to
I'm going against the flow on this one. I've had as good or better luck with the long aluminum.
When I was shooting carbon I used 42 grain long aluminum and haven't had one fail.

This batch of carbons isn't footed. I figure if I do enough damage to bend an adapter, I'll have have blown up the tip of the arrow as well (standard 18 grain aluminum insert).
I think I just made my mind up to use the aluminum for this batch.
steel.
STEEL!!!! You could also look into Titanium....I have seen them, havent had any need to try them.....but they would be a strong option for ya
