I am trying to get a consensus of what weight broadhead most tradgangers shoot.  So, if I'm doing this right you should see several options below.  Any information received will be very helpful to me.  Thanks

I picked 150, but I'll shoot any thing from a 130g Zwickey to a 200 VPA 3 blade, they all work!

I shoot 145gr Bear Razorhead S/S's but I just picked up some 190gr Tree Sharks to try on my heaviest/fastest bow.  I'm trying to get it to where all three of my bows have similiar trajectories so I can switch between them without having to adjust my shooting.

I assume you are looking for total head weight?
Normally a 175 grain broadhead with a 100 grain brass insert for a total of 275.  But just set up a new batch of arrows with a total of 350 grains up front.

Probably should have went with total head weight.
150gr + 75grain hit insert... 225 sounds better lol

The one that flies the best out of my bow, which right now seems to be 225.

Todd Cook

160 snuffers  As close to perfect as I've found

SilentT

Thanks for all the input guys.  Keep it coming.  I've been trying everything from 145 to 210 and so far my bow likes the 150 heads.  It seems like a lot of guys are using heads in the 200 grain range.  Food for thought.

220 no optiopn, so I went with other.
