Here's the deal. I'd like to see each member list their bow weight, bow type (L or R),draw length.

Then I want you to list what you think are the five best broadheads. From favorite to least favorite.

Wanna see if there's a pattern.   :readit:      :thumbsup:

Good judgement comes from experience.  Experience comes from bad judgement.

Recurve, 65#@28", maybe 62# at my 27" draw

Zwickey & Bear Razorhead, all I've ever used (ya, I know, variety is the spice of life)

Grizzly, have some, need to try them

Magnus, not tried one, but is there a bad one?

Wensel Woodsman, not tried one, but think I will

Did use a Snuffer one time and didn't get penetration I wanted, but could have been due to other variables. It did kill the deer though, so...

the Ferret

45# selfbow 27" draw, river cane arrows

Zwickey Eskimo
Magnus 2 (2 blade)
Bear Razorhead

57# glass recurve 28 1/4" draw tapered cedars

Snuffer 125
Thunderhead 125

Interesting thread Charlie. I have one more suggestion. How about arrow shaft material. After using woodies for 30+ years I've gone to carbons for hunting and I'm not looking back. Still love to make those woodies though. I'll bite.
