Like many folks I'm sure,  I get excited about broadheads.   After all,  aside from placing the shot appropriately, the broadhead makes it happen ..... and how well it does so can depend on many factors.  It's been many years now I feel since the single bevel became really hot on the scene,  with now tons of outfits producing them.  I would like to know your true honest take on this subject ....  especially if you have experience with taking game with BOTH single bevel and the good ole double bevel heads.  Did you start with double and transition to single for the long haul?  Did you start with single but then try a 3 or 4 blade and that's your poison now? Did you start with say a good ole Zwickey Delta that worked for you,  but then tried a single bevel that also worked,  but then went back to the Zwickey for some reason?  Maybe a sharpening method as a factor?
Really curious to see just how much preference comes into play with this, or even sheer coincidence being the deciding factor. Example being,  you started hunting with the stick bow just a few years ago and you went straight to single bevel and have taken game with them and because of that,  you only use single bevels because they did the job and brought you good luck.  Does a single bevel REALY outperform the same 2 blade in traditional double bevel?  Many of the new single bevels are being made with thick steel too,  compared to the same layout as an older double bevel thinner steel but just ground to a single bevel format.  What's your take on this matter,  all things considered and we are assuming the shot has hit it's mark (placement)   :campfire:
