I'm in the same boat as many here. I've used a lot of heads in the past. I was a long-time Zwickey Delta 2 blade user and killed a couple of bears a lot of deer with it. I've also killed critters with Magnus 125 grain 2 blades and Grizzly 125 and 160 grain heads. Lately I've been using Razorcap 200 grain heads on carbon arrows, but I do have some Magnus 125 grain 2 blades mounted on some cedar shafts.

I've never had any trouble with my Zwickey, Magnus or Grizzly heads. I recommend them all as excellent choices.

I still think those Magnus I 2 blades are like meat cleavers though.   ;)

I mount alot of broadheads and I can tell you one difference for sure. Zwickeys quality control is much better than Magnus. I've had oval ferrules in magnus but never in a Zwickey.

What I always tell guy's is when your broadheads have been around as long as Zwickey's have,then you can come talk to me.

I have used and like Zwickeys, Magnus, Ribtek, Phantoms, and Snuffers. I like Grizzlys but find sharpening them to be a minor pain in the posterior. My biggest deer fell to a Delma MAII(not a head I recommend due to ferrule splits but it worked fine on that deer.) I'm going Javie hunting in a couple of weeks. My heads? Eclipse. Is the teflon coating essential? Nah. Will it help? Maybe. I want to try 'em. if they work well I'll tout 'em simply because I like Blake Fischer and wish him success.

I used the Eclipe 145's last year to take quite number of critters. Great head as far as I'm concerned. I used Zwickeys for a long time before and have had great luck with them.

I think I'll stay with the Eclipse for now, very nicely made head.
