Let's talk broad heads...

[CrossVolle]

What is everyone shooting these days & what kind of performance are you getting out of them? I am shooting Afflictor K2's and absolutely love them.. Fully American made from start to finish using American materials. I really like the thick reinforced tips. They do not bend and just flat out work. Also, the easiest head to tune i have ever used. Required quite literally 0 adjustments.

 

[paradis1142]

Sevr's for my compound.
VPA and Magnus Stingers for my trad bows.

 

[Andy S.]

Slick Trick Magnum 125s. I bought a bunch before Gary sold out, so still shooting the originals.

 

[CrossVolle]

Sevr's for my compound.
VPA and Magnus Stingers for my trad bows.

I always keep a stinger in the quiver for when i'm hunting one of my doe spots.. They are a really solid head imo.

 

[Billboy]

Still shooting old slick trick magnums.

 

[PickettSFHunter]

I'm shooting hand sharpened Magnus Stingers. The serrated with bleeder blades. I do want to switch to a more durable head but have a ton of the stingers and they work fine on deer.

 

[tree_ghost]

I'm shooting Exodus 125 in my compound this year. I'm hoping the 3rd blade gives me a little better blood trail. I think this head will be very durable when contacting bone or the ground during or after the shot with the high performance of compound bows.
In my recurve I'm shooting 125 magnus stingers w/ bleeder blades. I like this head in my trad bow because the profile of the head lends itself to the best penetration possible with minimal speed/KE behind it.

 

[Harold Money jr]

I see several people shoot stingers as do I. They are great heads, their durability is the same as a bunch of heads and better than most, the accuracy is great as well. I've killed a few with the same head and ruined one on the first deer some times. They've ALWAYS killed the deer bent or not. The best part is put them in the package and send em back. Get 3 new ones in short order in the mail.

 

[Shanman]

Going to try some Black Hornet Ser Razor 125s this season.

 

[paradis1142]

Also trying out some Ironwill S125's this year.

 

[dhpro]

NAP sling blade, love the accuracy and amazing short blood trails!

 

[david k.]

I probably have two or three lifetime supplies of VPA, Magnus Snuffers, Slick Trick SS3's and ViperTricks.....any of them will get the job done.

 

[JCDEERMAN]

Montec G5's 100 gr

 

[102]

This past season I killed my 300th whitetail by bow.
I started bowhunting in 1981. Things were different then. We all shot HEAVY arrows. Carbon wasn't even a thought.

When I began my hunting in Tennessee the coveted tag was an either sex tag. Because it meant you could kill a doe. If a hunter hunted with all weapons, in Unit A,(now Unit L) B, C, and D( I believe) that hunter could bag ELEVEN bucks...YES 11!

So there was basically no daytime rutting activity in most places I hunted. In fact, we saw FEW, if any deer at all.

Trophy bucks were non existent to a novice hunter.

So I decided to start learning how to kill ANY LEGAL DEER with a bow.

I learned a lot about arrows and Broadheads!

Magnus 4 blade 100 grain Black Hornet Serrazors!

Nuff said!

 

[Smo]

I haven't used it yet….

But plan too!

 

[Smo]

Here's the heads I used back in the day with good success.

Satellite 3 blade

Before those it was the good old Bear razor head with bleeder

Yep, I'm older than dirt..

 

[paradis1142]

These are looking pretty nasty.

 

[EastTNHunter]

Muzzy 3 blade

 

[bowhunterfanatic]

I'm still slinging Rage 2 blades until I run out. I've yet to have an issue with them so I'll probably continue to shoot them until I do.

 

[Weegee]

Bought some Montec G5's in 125 grain last month. I've heard they are hard to sharpen, what do you guys think?

 

[Bell3wv]

I've used Rage since probably 2004. I've only lost 1 deer during that time. Several that I shot I probably shouldn't have recovered but the Rages helped. Here's a pick of a doe I shot in the neck a few years ago.

I could never get them shaving sharp…with that said I ran them on a flat diamond stone then on an Arkansas Wet stone and they worked fine for my wife at 42lb draw. She now shoots Magnus Hornets I believe, they are very very sharp.

 

[Rem7600]

Been using muzzy 100gr for over 20 years probably only switch if they go out of business. I buy replacement blades and keep one or 2 that I shot adeer with for coyote if I get the chance to swap arrows which doesn't normally happen.

Man I don't know why I ever got away from them. They never failed me and they were cheap! Sometimes the grass ain't always greener…

I picked up a bunch at Walmart 2 years ago after season on sale for$7 a3 pack. I've had they go through bone in and out blood is always good. I think they are reasonably priced at regular price looking at 40 after tax for half dozen. What do you all spend on your Brodheads.


Type and price per 6?

 

[Smo]

Another old one from the 1980's..

Rocky Mountain Razor 1 1/2 " cutting diameter 140 grain ….

I never could get these too fly right for some reason….

 

[tree_ghost]

Shoot my Magnus are $40 for 3!

 

[Smo]

Another old one that was posted here a few years back by bowmaker48.

Apparently the head is made into the shaft…

Back then Eddie C mentioned someone from another site said they thought it was made by Trueflight ….

I've never seen another one like it …

 

[CrossVolle]

My Afflictor K2 4-blade fixed heads ran me $43 for a 3 pack. But they are direct to consumer so one would think they would be probably $55-60 retail.

 

[Ladys man]

Been shooting swhacker since they came out with good results, but changed my arrows this yr to heavier with more FOC and will either go with magnus stinger or exodus 125s.
