aluminum arrows meaning "screw-in" right???? if you don't want to mount inserts in the taper only broadheadsa AND if you don't know how to get them sharp from scratch or you are not sure on these two things----> for now get the Magnus Stinger or buzzcut or the Muzzy Phantom..  

theres many many more like everyone is posting but they may cost more or need to be sharpened or need to have inserts mounted ""correctly" so they spin straight..

I bought screw-in woodsmans from 3 rivers and all 6 wobbled on my spin tester,, glue on woodsman yes screw on NO.

30coupe,

Absolutely you are spot on with WW's...I was just sticking with 2 blade heads.  I do not currently use the WW or Snuffers though, as I feel they are too noisy in flight, many dispute this, but test it for yourself.  Despite this, I have killed a number of nice bucks with Snuffers and would not hesitate to do the same with the Woodsmans.    

More choices out there than we could exhaust in a lifetime!  All the "traditional fixed blade heads" are a good choice IMO.  

Use them where they apply, obtain excellent arrow flight and shoot them as sharp as you can possibly get them (old news).

Best of Luck!

Kris

STOS glue on broadheads. Strong, tips don't curl, easy to sharpen and fly great.

I get the Magnus Stinger two blades from Braveheart archery.  They're a sponsor here and they have great customer service, quick shipping at reasonable rates and the broadheads are under $30 for three screw in heads.

I've shot a bunch of different broadheads over the years... 2, 3, and 4 blades...  I'm sticking with the Magnus 1 2-blade and the Zwickey Delta 4-blade.  Easy to sharpen, hold an edge well, durable, and put critters on the ground when I do my part.  

As many have said, there are a bunch of broadheads out there, some more expensive then others...  But, if you get yourself pretty much anyone of the "Name Brand" cut on contact fixed blades out there (be it a 2, 3, or 4 blade), make sure that it's sharp and spins true on your arrow it will do the job for you.  

The rest is just semantics IMO...

If you hurry we've got the Magnus II's on sale for $19.99, a fine broadhead, but they are going fast.

They are glue on's, I couldn't tell if you wanted screw in's or not.
