I'm shooting the Woodsman Elite 175gr which is basically the VPA Terminator from what I understand.

any 125 with a 42 grn adapter works well enough... but out to 25 yds... 125 with 75 grn steel adapters works just as well as long as your set up tunes well with it..

There are lot of 125 grain heads to choose from..... with adapters you can also use glue in adapters and (lose the inserts...) get the weight down enough to use some of the heavier bigger heads...

at 175 grn, you have Mondo choices!!!

I'm with ALDO.....love my Razorcaps and they are weight adjustable from 100 to 200 grains in 25 grain increments. They are made with excellent steel that is takes and  holds the best edge I can get on any broadhead.

I really like my 170 gr Zwickey Delta screw ins. Inexpensive, easy to sharpen and lethal ... the bear I shot in June went less than 50 yards before piling up.

To me, the ultimate challenge in bowhunting is not how far away you can succesfully make a killing shot but rather how close you can get to the animal before shooting.

Another vote for Razorcaps! I can get them very sharp on my flat stones.

I just talked to Simmons broadheads and they should have a 175 grain screw in Tigershark out in a couple of weeks. I like this head as a glue on with and insert. I know I will like the screw on better.LCH

The terminator's make a nasty mess of critters. We cary them also.
