I hunt with selfbows 90% of the time and glass bows the other 10% (Schafer, Robertson, Dale Dye, Rocky Miller Heritage, ECT...).  The weight at my 281/2" draw is usually between 50 -65 pounds.  I don't have a preference with any of the following heads; just use the broadhead with the weight that makes a particular set of arrows fly best from a particular bow.  I have found that straight flying arrows are the number one priority for penetration, followed by arrow weight, then type of head (two, three, or four blade).    

1.   Eclipse 4 Blade (155 grains)
2.   Woodsmen (125 Grains)
3.   Grizzly El Grande (190 Grains)
4.   Magnus I 4 blade (165 grains)
5.   Magnus II 4 blade (135 Grains)

Number six on the list would be the Eclipse 2 blade at 145 grains.
The broadhead used, regardless of how sharp, is nowhere as important as being able to place it in the correct spot.

Since I am new to hunting with a stickbow, these are the only heads I have used. I have taken a lot of stuff with other heads that, in my opinion, wouldn't work very well with recurves and longbows.
