I experiment alot. I've always been a Zwickey/Magnus guy, but shot my bison with a STOS. I was impressed with the head and took quite a bit of game with them after that..

Then I won some Ribtek 160's on the St. Jude auction. They fly and sharpen really well.
If I had to pick one, I'd take the STOS.

I havent hunted with any 3 blade yet...

Don't care. I have a 5 gallon bucket full of broadheads. I just grab 4, load my quiver & go hunt. They all work.
They all weigh between 150 + 300gn & honestly, at 25yds I can't see any difference in arrow flight.

Right now it's two-bladed Magnus 125 gr. vented with aluminum screw-in inserts installed.

But, I do have a few Magnus two-bladed Stingers that I may try soon.

Pretty much using the VPA 3 blades these days. Always liked the Snuffers and had good success with them too.

VPA 3 blade...never seen a better flying head, penetrate like crazy, easy to sharpen, tough as nails.  They got it all.

I'm always switching broadheads. It is cheaper than switching bows.  :D  

The flavor of the month is Simmons safari's and I really like them so far.
This stuff ain't no rocket surgery science!

VPA's/Woodsman Elites are my fave.

In two blade heads I really like STOS.

I like the Ace 145 grainers and also have about 20 190 ribteks.  Looking at the price of Ribteks from Oz, I won't be buying any more.  Gonna try the 200 gr grizzly!

Another vote for the VPA three blade.

They make a heck of a hole.  :thumbsup:

Anyone thats sharp. 2, 3, 0r 4 blade. But if I had to choose one it would be the Zwickey 4 blade.

I like the VPA's, I have the 160gr on my 2016's for my 52# bow.

When I was shooting my 48# bow with 1916's I liked Magnus Stingers in 125gr.

False Cast

I like the Grizzly line with the weight depending on what works best for my arras. Combined with the KME sharpener, I found out just what "scary sharp" really is!

I like my Zwicky Eskimos as well!

WESTBROOK

3 blade=VPA, especially the 1.25"

2 blade, Z Delta, Magnus 1, Ace, Eclipse (wish they made a 160-175).

I like to play around with different arrows and have probvably tried most of them. My favorite to date have been VPA 3 blades, however this year I gave 160 gr Grizzly's a try and killed a small buck with it. I also tried 150gr Stinger 4 blades a week later and killed a nice mature doe. After seeing the damage the Stinger did to the doe it has become my go-to broadhead.
Do not follow where the path may lead.  Go, instead, where there is no path and leave a trail.
