On my carbon arrows I use 125gr broadheads with brass adapters to build up to about 220gr.  I do this so I can use 125gr judo points with the same arrows I deer hunt with.  On my woodies I use 200gr Ace Super Express.

well i guess i had to be the odd ball, i shoot less than 50lbs. draw weight, and have been shooting 100gr. for 10 years. they fly good for me, and my other reason is i shoot three under, look down my shaft and it is dead on anywhere from 0 to 25yds. i would like to have more forward weight, and if anyone can tell me what to do i would give it a try.  :archer2:

Thanks for all the replies guys. I figured most would fall between 145-160 grain heads, but I am surprised at how many are shooting much heavier heads than that. Interesting.

95% of the time - 175 grains - since the mid 80s.

That is normally a long aluminum adapter and a Zwickey Delta 4 blade making the 175 grains.

I use 125 grain multi-blade heads with a 50 grain brass insert which makes 175 grains up front.

200 screw in.   I like the weight up front and I can swap my BH's with 200 gr hex or hammer heads whenever.

And I cannot get anymore weight up front on my CE 350s.  If I could, I would go with another 50 or 100 gr inserts and stick with the 200 gr heads.

I'll be using Ace 160gr. standard broadheads for this season.
