Hard to say...I haven't shot them all. With that being said, I have had great success with Rocky Mtn. Snyper 2 blades. It is a poor mans Rage. Been around for years. Flies great, leaves gaping hole, very dependable.

Whichever one you shoot well. Just make sure the blades are razor blades.

The ones you have confidence in and can hit the vitals with. Simple as that. If the point of impact is in the vitals, you could shoot field tips and successfully harvest deer.

For sure, but the tracking difficulty of that animal shot with a field tip may jump considerably.  Not to mention the cost of the fine for using one in the first place! 
I agree...just trying to reinforce that "shot placement" is more important than the type of broadhead one has on the end of their arrow. To further illustrate this, I know a guy who is more of a tight wad than I.  He shoots the 3 pack from Wally World that costs $10 for 3. They resemble a Thunderhead or Muzzy but they are in a Realtree package. Some people I know chuckle when I tell them his broadhead of choice. At the end of the day he kills deer with them and the main reason is his confidence and shot placement, not what type of broadhead he uses.

Couldn't agree more. As one tightwad to another! I'm still shooting a HCA Maxx Force bow from 1995!
