I shot Zwickey heads with the spring arms for years and they worked ok.But on a wim I ordered "The Hammer" heads to give them a try, WOW!
I have the 125 glue in heads with a 100 grain steel insert on a 340,for a total of 615 grains out of a 66# bow. My arrows really thump, and this head holds up! I figure I got over 250 shots on one before the arrow broke and the head looks great!
I have no stake in the product, just thought I would pass along

I also shoot "The Hammer". Really like it alot. I shoot 200g screw in on 2018's. They fly well and seem to be really tough. Hopefully, I will be able to connect on a tree rat sometime so I can see what they do on live game. I have shot judos and ace hex heads in the past, but to me they don't compare to the hammer.

I have been using the Hammer also on my fluflu's. Great heads for rabbit and squirell,and don't bury when hitting the ground if you miss.

Another Hammer user. If you buy the heaviest ones, make sure they are screwed down tight before each shot.
If there is any play, they will snap off with the thredded portion stuck in your arrow! They are really wide which gives them some leverage to snap.
Since I have been screwing them down tight with every shot, I have been OK.

The Hammers are great and probably the best overall, but I also like the Ace hex heads and judo points. They all work well and each of them will work better for specific conditions.

Nothing like a good ol' Judopoint for me! I shot in a lot of mossy terrain, and sometimes even Jodus bury under.. But far less then any other point

For stumpin' ya can't beat the good old Judo Head! Then again I'll use Hammer Heads matching my broadhead weight for small game and such right before deer season. Don't ask me to choose the "best one". Kinda dig Ace Hex Heads too! They are all good. IMHO

Judo all the way for me.
Do like hammers and hex for small game on occasion.

Judo for me, too, but I haven't tried a Hammer.

I like the hammer heads and the hex heads equally. I actually use the hex as my target head too. Yes on regular purchased targets.
I don't like the judo heads. They say the are indestructible, but I can trash them fairly quickly.

I use a regular old blunt on the surewood shafts I use with my Hill. I shoot a lot in the woods and found that the Judos snagged limbs and twigs. I do have to be a little more careful in my target choices, though. The blunts are definitely easier to lose.

I really like the SGT head for stumpin and small game. I shoot the 250 grain screw in. I also use the rest, but have been impressed with the SGT thus far.

I shoot a Talon
I recently slid a Zwickey Scorpio behind one for shooting in the neighbors field. Unbreakable with a cutting edge meets unloseable. Good combo for stumping.
