Think'n I might need a heavier broad head, but wanted to hear what ya'll might be shoot'n as far as weight goes.

I need new arrows also, so you mite want post your arrows choice also & how out it works with your chosen broad head.

Thanks in advance.

Snuffer 125 with 100 grain adapter on a 29 inch gt 5575
Vpa 250 on same arrows
625-650 grain total weight
Worked out good this January

175 gn Brown bear 80# cedar or doug fir; combo is killer!

125 grain wensel woodsman on a 100 grain insert in 3555 GT trads cut to 28 1/2".  Gives me around 535 grains total weight, unfortunately I didn't get to try them out this fall....sold a house and bought a house and moved during bow season!!!!!!   :confused:  not sure what I was thinking!!

160 grain Ribtek, Magnus Mag I, or ACE

30.5" GT3555 with 160gr Zwickeys. It worked fine from a 42# bow a couple of years ago. Couldn't find a deer to point it at this year

200 grain woodsman BH with standard insert, on a  7595 GT Pro Hunter, cut to 30.5". Gives me around 585 grains total weight. Have not killed anything with it yet, but I'm confident it will drop anything that I hit.

Wood arrow, 125 glue on 2 blade Ace.  Kills fast, goes deep.

160gr Snufer
160gr Journeyman

on tapered ash gives me an arrow in the 750gr range

165gr. Treeshark with 100gr. Steel adapter on a 30 in. CE Heritage 250.

Has been my favorite setup the last couple years.

125 grain WW with 50 grain brass inserts

160 grain Grizzly on a Surewood 80-85 spined tapered  douglas fir shaft @ 28.5" does the job for me!  I've yet to have a "return" customer thus far with this combo and my Black Widow PSA   !

130 gr Stos and 125 gr Magnus II on Douglas fir shafts.  I prefer simple two-edged heads.

I have stuck them deep in roots behind the deer after full pass-throughs.  Normally get a foot of shaft out the backside.  I shoot 30-1/2" BOP with the last 12" tapared down to 5/16" for about 630 gr all up arrow weight.

160 gr grizzly on a glue in glue on adpater and 2020 legacys. 630gr overall. Works perfect out of my 63# longbow

50gr. brass insert behind a 200gr. broadhead.

Ribtek 160s or 190s on doug fir shafts
Grizzly Kodiak 200s on sitka or doug fir
Snuffer 160 on doug fir


shoot them in everything from my 50-60# selfbows...longbows...and recurves.

300 grain tuskers on beman mfx 340's with 75 grain brass inserts.

Centershot 55/75, 100 grain insert, and 250 gr. VPA Terminator bh, for total weight of 695 gr and almost 12 gpi.  Would like to move up a little in # or down in arrow weight.  Happy with performance on game, but drops quickly after 20.

Shooting wood arrows, I went from 125 to 160 gr many years ago and have now moved to 200 gr plus.  I really like the flight and performance from the heavier heads.  Looking forward to my new 235 gr Grizzly Kodiaks.

52@28...Dryad ACS RC

Personally confident set-up for the game I pursue.


Note: Used the following arrow which shot out of 51@28 Vyperkahn in arrowing a doe from sternum thru body and resulted in an~6"-8" exit beyond the inner ham. She laid down on the spot.
