I would go with the Woodsmen for the penetration factor!

i havent shot either of them and i need a bh that would penatrate and i heard that woodsmans would do the gob but would a 530 grain arrow out of a 50 pound bow work? and if not that is why i was thinking about using the big snuffers

Check out this thread from a while back...

Lots of good info. Either of those would be a good choice for bear. You could flip a coin. I used a 3 blade on my bear with good success (Razorcap).

i read all of it good stuff. i still am thinking 160 grain snuffers are pretty big would they penetrate well with a 50 pound at 26 but i draw 29

That means you are drawing closer to 60lbs. o problem shooting Snuffers.
