 I have used the Eclipse 2 blade 125 grain glue on broadhead a few years back. They fly true and straight with some minor tuning. They are a tough and proven broadhead. I took several nice deer with them with decent blood trails. The only issue that I came across was that they weighed more than the 125 grain that they claimed. I believe they weighed in close to 138 grains if I remember it right. And the Eclipse broadheads was a little more expensive then my Zwickeys.
Now therefore take, I pray thee, thy weapons, thy quiver and thy bow, and go out to the field, and take me some venison;

I prefer their 145 grain broadhead, but have used the 125 grain numerous whitetails with good results.
The broadhead used, regardless of how sharp, is nowhere as important as being able to place it in the correct spot.

I have the 145gr. and have had good luck with them. My only issue is that they are supposed to have a lifetime warranty, and after several attempts to contact the company about getting a couple replaced with no answer or reply, I’ve got a bit of a sour taste in my mouth towards them!

The new one named werewolf are a real junk for the money, Made in china. I bought a 6 pack 200 gr HEX (the one with bleeders) for an African hunt in summer 2018 $119. They were in fact 220gr (not an issue for me) and seemed very nice and needed a little touch for my sharpness standart.
I shot and killed 3 animals with it and got the 3 BH significantly bent at the ferule level. I felt very disappointed about quality for the price. I killed the next 3 antelopes of the safari with the same zwickey delta and 3 monthes later a big doe with the exact same delta

Glue on 125 gr Eclipse are my favorite head, but they are too expensive now so Zwickey Eskimos are my go to head now.
