I'm on the same page as Bisch except my best performing head has been the Razorcap.

started using sharks in 98 and settled into them by 02 - I don't lose animals and blood trailing is fun with abundant sign even my old eyes can see. I have tons a heads that have been mailed here and given to us to test but I would rather buy sharks

I have killed deer with Woodsman and Snuffers, but after watching a Zwickey Delta zip through a nice buck at 22 yards from my little 46# Kanati, then seeing the damage one does to a turkey, I'm a two blade guy.
I was intrigued by the massive blood trails guys seem to get with Simmons broadheads, so this year I am shooting some Tiger Sharks. I have the Deltas ready to go too though.

Argh! I had my mind made up on using woodsmans. Now I'm thinking about packing a few bear razorheads too. I can't decide!

I've bought a couple different heads since returning to curves in 2010 (Silver Flames and Magnus) but I have only used the Helix (3 different weights) these past 3 and current season. Killed number 6 this morning with em. Went through near shoulder and broke the far shoulder ... 70 yard recovery.

I love the variety that traditional archery offers. Not just in broadheads but pretty well every aspect of it.
I plan on trying out some new Grizzy's and Stos soon. Right now the Ace express heads are in my quiver waiting for next Tues.

It`s all good. I did the same thing many years ago. (when the things were cheaper to experiment with)
Through it all I did learn alot. I settled years ago on any WIDE two edge that is easy to sharpen.
With the wide two blades, you must shoot a tuned arrow...other than that just get them sharp and they will take care of your blood letting needs.
For many of us, they experimentation is how we customize our archery in order to customize our enjoyment.

I usually stick to the classics like Zwicky Delta's or Deadheads but do like the STOS heads and My go to head will always be a Delta! Tried lots of others but this head is tried and true!

Agreed Rob. I've tried quit a few myself. I've found that I like the ones that are easy to get really sharp the best though.

I'm a Grizzly man myself... Shot the old ones for years but Bill's new heads are the GREATEST! My tinkering is with arrow spine... Then I adjust my Grizzly broadhead accordingly! What a curious lot we trad hunter's are... Trying to perfect our individual kit!

There sure is a great bunch of heads out there,i've been wanting to try some of them.But it hasn't happened yet,i wind up every year shooting the same heads.Been shooting the Grizzly's Zwicky's and the small deadheads for many years.And they have never let me down yet.

I have used Zwickey Black Diamond Eskimo 2 blade for years , they hit exactly where my field points do . They are not hard to find , very durable and not hard to sharpen . If it's not broke , don't fix it .

Yea I have it. I have some zwickeys they worked. Got some muzzy phantoms they cut a really nice hole but I was not really good at sharpening them then. So I got some snuffers easy to sharpen and cut good. But wait those sasquatches look like they would cut a really big hole and do. I have a bear razorhead that is begging to get bloody. What to do? Gonna need a bigger quiver so I can carry them all and just do luck of the draw.
