My first thought would be VPA.

Most any 125 glue-on and a long aluminum adapter will get you a 175'ish BH.

VPA or Simmons.  Can't go wrong with either of these!

Magnus 1 with long aluminum adaptor...  Right at 175...  Easy to sharpen, and cut a wide path through a critter.

what are you hunting?
And what type of setup are you using?
draw weight, draw length..etc

the VPA, simmons, and weight adapters ideas are all good.

Good affordable option right here


I do like the Simmons, too, though.

Don't forget the Zwickey Delta.

Any 125 and a 50 grain steel insert will get you 175. I use the Ace Express and it flys great.

If you like the zwickey but want something narrower, the No Mercy is pretty close to 175 as a screw in. Mine come in at 170.

Haven't killed anything with them yet, so your mileage may vary.

Zwickey delta and a long adapter.  Fair price and tried and true.

I would also recommend the Tigershark 175 screw in.  This is the glue on model but the blade is the same.  The screw in does extend rearward past the point insert a bit though as do all screw in Sharks, about 3/8" of an inch.

Love the Sharks!  Two blade penetration with multi-blade blood trails.

  Simmons Sharks at Braveheart Archery (http://www.braveheartarchery.us/eclipse_broadheads.htm)

You should be able to make a good 175 screw in (or close enough) from any 125 grain glue on head with long adapter though.  That opens up a LOT more options for you.

The Tigershark , looks like a awesome blade.

All awesome suggestions.  Here's mine:  145g STOS glue on with 34g alu screw in adapter.  179g of penetration!
