I like to shoot as close to 200 gr as possible.  Snuffers and Tusker Deltas being my "go to" heads right now.

Let's just say I am a steel force fan, I am eager to put my 150 grain Steel Force Hellfire 4 blade broadheads to the test on an animal, they flew so well with my field points that I accidentally shaved part of the hen feather of my field point arrow off! I got that sucker razor sharp too, I got it to where it shaves the hairs off my arm (they are really sharp out of the box but I wanted them to shave!)

Either that or I would go with the 190g Steel Force Phat Heads (2 blade), or 220g Steel Force Traditional Series left wing bevel (2 blade) (true 3:1 ratio: 3" long, 1" wide)

Simmons Treeshark.  It's the only broadhead endorsed by the CBA (Colorblind Bowhunters Association).

Having bowhunted since 1954 the most lethal broadhead I have ever used is the Razorcap. Most game I  have killed with them has gone down in sight and those that didn't left excellent, and short, bloodtrails.

125gr Magnus Stingers are what I use

I like the RFA Pheonix heads (single bevel VPA's) the best but I simply can't get them to fly well for me out of my particular longbow setup and my Stingers fly like darts so it's all Stingers for me.
1pc and 2pc Sarrels Sierra Mountain Longbows - both 53.5lbs @ 29"

:laughing:  That's good!

You will find either STOS 160's or Snuffer 160's on the end of my arrows.

That's funny Chris. If you doubt it I know Chris has some pictures of the carnage the Tree Sharks do. I tried them this past weekend. Holes like big mechanicals with the benefits of a great fixed blade cut on contact.

I have killed critters with Thunderheads, Magnus, Steelforce and Stingers before I tried the Treesharks. I don't foresee a change unless it's to the Tigersharks.

I don't mind spending on quality, I use the Abowyer single necrosis exclusively. I have yet to handle a single bevel as nice as the Abowyers period.

Gen273

simmons landshark or vpa 3 blade
Jesus Saves (ROM 10:13)

Stumpkiller

Stos 130 gr.  Though I have no complaints with the Magnus II 125 gr and RibTek 125S & 125W I have used in the past.  

All seem to work equally well. I have three kills on the same Stos head I used this year.  They fly great and kill well.
