What Broadhead do you use

SLICK TRICK GRIZZ TRICK 2

[IronNoggin]

... I am an expandable guy and don't use fix blades anymore. I get much better blood trails and shorter tracking jobs.

X2.
I have run 125 grain Spitfires the past couple of seasons. Awesome blood trails & short recoveries. Chose these due to recommendations (PH Buddies in Africa) and due to the fact they fly almost exactly the same as my 125 grain field points - all the way to 100 yards that is!

Still toying with trying out the 125 grain Toxics this year. Paul has had some excellent success with these (expect him to chime in any moment now) and I just may have to give them a whirl as a consequence...

Cheers,

Simmons Land sharks, tree sharks and tiger sharks. Great flying and penetration. If you like two blades, look no further
JDMAX

[UPSMAN]

Muzzy Trocar. Fixed blade,tough as nails, right helix design. Shoots like a field point. Consistently ranked as one of the best all around heads on the market. "Bad to the Bone".

....and reasonably priced

I'm red green colorblind and so I'm hoping the nap foc's help me track this year but good blood depends on shot placement as much as cutting surface does. Slick tricks, xact's, striker mags have all worked well for me in the past. The striker mag really impressed me on the one kill I had but one kill isn't enough of a test.

I am surprised no one is using the Boltcutters and only one person said they are going to use them this year. Are they a bad broadhead?

I've been a HUGE Slick Trick fan for years. The past couple years I've used Toxic Broadheads with extraordinary results. However, I only have 100gr toxics. I recently picked up some 125gr QAD Exodus Broadheads but only shot them out of my 380 at 30yards. II'll be testing these with a new arrow recipe I'll put together with 125gr points and slugged plastic nocks to match my Luminoks keeping my foc consistent with the recipe I currently have. I'll be shooting them out of my soon to be custom 405. I'll post my results after doing some testing.

I shoot the 100gr Slick Trick Mags. I'm very happy with their accuracty, but I cannot say much for blood trails. Of the two deer I took last year I didn't need to track them. Down within sight so not all bad.

I've been thinking like JDMax, the Simmons heads look great as do the Centaur broadheads. But they are massive and I'm not sure about the weight with such a short arrow. Talk about extreme FOC...

Here is a pic of the Centaur Big Game next to a Slick Trick Mag...

I would not call them "bad".
That said I was entirely unimpressed with the lack of blood trails they left on 4 occasions despite dead center hits. That, and recoveries well beyond what I see with the Spitfires. Sold all of mine for a song. Won't be collecting any more.

As always, your mileage may vary...

I am using the 125 grain muzzy 3 blade fixed heads this year.. I have shot many different heads and I always seem to fall back to these ones.. had the 100 grain wasp jack hammer sst's mechanicals, and had issues with them fully deploying.. had the 150 grain bolt cutters and the last 3 deer I shot, no blood trails and no recovery ( tracked for over 4 hours each).. was going to try the 100 grain rage crossbow heads but couldn't get better than a 4" group at 20 yards.. then I got a good deal on these muzzy heads and figured I have never ( not yet anyways) shot a more accurate, reliable, tough dependable head ... I shot 3 deer with my phoenix a few years back with the muzzy's, all complete pass through.. picked up the heads, all perfectly fine and razor sharp.. cleaned them off and shot them again.. 3 deer with the exact same head.. not too bad... I find picking broad heads now is harder than ever.. with all the different designs, weights, larger cutting diameter.. man, sure makes it tough.. every time I read a post that asks about what head to shoot, I shake my head and feel sorry for the person, must have 1.5 million questions in their heads by that time..

Same here . . .killed 2 deer w/ the same head jus had to change out one blade a rock found. re-sharpened to a hair shaving edge w/ a lanskey. the only drawback if i can find one would be the small allen set screws and wrench.

Now I'm going to try NAP Spitfire Maxx this fall, but my go to, never fail me heads are NAP Thunder Heads. I always check my POI with them right before the season starts, and find field point accuracy inside 40 yards every time. Here is why I like them. Short recovery / massive blood trails. Right under my bow tip is my dead buck. 29 yard shot, 38 yard recovery from the treestand.

I tried muzzy and thunderhead 125s out of my 355 and had major issues getting consistent accuracy, especially past 30 yards. The muzzys were a little better but shot way to the right compared to field points. Switched to slick trick 100s. Magic. They shoot just like my field points

Switching from the Rage 100 grain crossbow head to the NAP 100 grain Killzone crossbow head for this season.

Will be trying Toxics this year, but I had good luck with X-acts also.
