Well, I don't have any pics, nor do I shoot the Eskimo, but one of my friends shoot them and loves 'em.  I shoot the Delta, not a better broadhead made IMHO.  Followed closely by an ACE super express.  The Eskimos that I have been around in action have done a super job.  Lots of blood on the ground and they are tough.  There is actually an Eskimo stuck in a rock at our bow range.  The head still has an insert in it.  Leavings from a broadhead shoot we used to have and a shot placement gone wrong...lol

Excelent broadhead if you ask me, I just like more cut.  I would shoot a meat cleaver if I could ever get one to fly.  :bigsmyl:

I've shot the Eskimo over twenty years... Easy to get crazy sharp and the fly perfectly.. They "work" everytime..

this was done by a Eskimo...

I shoot 'em and love 'em.  They are indeed easy to get very sharp, penetrate great, have worked for decades--"if it ain't broke, don't fix it."
The years accumulate on old friendships like tree rings, during which time a kind of unspoken care and loyalty accrue between men.

I have shot both the two and four blade and prefer the blood trail that the four blade leaves behind.

Have been shooting the Eskimos and Deltas for more than 30 years, always fly well and definitely are tough and hold a edge.
The essence of the hunt for me is to enter nature and observe+ return safely occasionally with the gift of a life taken.

I have shot 6 big game animals with Zwickey Eskimos and trad bows so far.  Never had a problem with one, they fly good for me, and I can't break them.
