[Trx480Ryan]

Whats everyone using for broadheads out there, pro's cons? I'll be looking for some eventually for my equinox. So far i was told to go with muzzy's, so lets hear what you guys run and the pro's and cons of them?


Thanks

I use Muzzy 125, 3 blades,with 2" Bohning Blazer vanes,I could not get them to fly good until I put the Bohning Blazers on my bolts.Now they hit exact spot as my Field Points.

100gr spitfires for me.

I use Spitfire & Slick-Tricks & Striker by G5.I don't use Muzzy nutten it goes back into History of them down on CB's!

Wac'Em Exit -

Was given a pack of them about 3 years ago. They hit right with field points from my bow and I've had 100% success with them as long as everything else held up. (had one shot ruined by scope failure)
Put one through the "boiler room" and it's a very short blood trail.

Down side - replacement blades can be very hard to obtain. Had to call the manufacturer last year to get blades.

I've been using spitfire's for years...experiment with some different brands sometime's but alway's come back to what works for me.
If it a'int broke...

125 grain G5 Strykers and so far, they're pretty awesome. Used Slick Tricks last year and didn't care for 'em. Was thinking about trying Rage, but I'm hearing more and more about blades not deploying. My Cousins had two last weekend they didn't open on them. Thankfully one was a heart shot and the other through the shoulder. They never found the shoulder shot deer.

Whatever you use, make sure they hit the same place as your field tips. And also, shoot at all yardages to make sure your broadheads hit the same. Just because both hit the same spot at 20 doesn't mean they will at 40!

130gr Wasp Cam-loks, I believe they were once the reccommended broadhead for Excaliburs back in the day....

I have some Excalibur Bolt Cutters and some Excalibur X-Act broad heads. If they are good enough for Bill T, they are good enough for me. I am satisfied with them. I will buy myself some other kind for small game sometime when I can afford to, that is the only difference for me.
Thanks,

Muzzy MX 4 for me,they fly great.Havent shot a deer with them but a friend did and I was impressed with the performance

I've only shot 2 deer with my Equinox, but both times I used the Excalibur Boltcutter broadheads. They're heavy at 150 grains, but tough as nails. Just to look at them, they don't really look like anything special, but they definitely get the job done! Between the accuracy of the Excalibur itself and the broadheads, you definitely don't shoot at the same spot twice while practicing!

I've thought about trying the Rage broadheads for crossbows, but I'm leery of having to rely on anything mechanical like that on such a critical component.

sold on boltcutters only shot one turkey so far but it didn't like it!! what really sold me was the fact that after it went trough the bird it skipped and hoped for another 50 to 75 yards in rock and gravel and stuck in a slate pile about 4 to 6 inches!!and i thought trash for sure the blades were dulled and bent on the edges but not chipped and were still firmly in place but new blades and a bath and you can't tell it had ever been shot! never hurt the tip at all.if it can take an old strip mine like that i don't ever have to worry.

Ok, I'll be the odd one, 100 grain Trophy Ridge 2 blade MeetSeekers. I had a post on here a couple of weeks ago that showed some of the holes they made. I have shot 4 so far this season and only one managed to run about 30 yards. The other 3 dropped where they were standing with threw and threw sholder shots. They are also tough broadheads. I havent had one to bend or break yet (knock on wood).
