So many choices with all the steel adapters available these days.

Get a 120 grain Grizzly broadhead and glue in a 75 grain steel adaptor. This gives you a broadhead around 195 grains and is indestructible.

I shot the Aztecs by Tusker last season I killed a little sow with them on a not so great shot. I have to admit they are some of the sharpest heads I've had. and pretty durable for the money.

If I was buying a 2 blade screw in right now I'd get either the Helix or Werewolf heads. Werewolf at about half the cost of Silverflames have got to be one of the best deals going on that style of head.

for 200 gns I like the 160 ACE w/ adaptor ... killed heaps of critters with those .. sharp, stay sharp and tough ... plus they don't cost me uber dollars ...

As Flyne said ... if you can go up in weight a bit I have had great results as well with Trophy Bowhunts Widowmaker 215gns ... performed beautifully for me in New Zealand a few months ago .

I've been using Ace 200gr Super Express for several years now and I love em.. Triple laminated and copper brazed, they're extremely strong and they're easy to sharpen....plus they fly like they're on a string...    :archer2:

And those pictures are actual size! I agree with Ron. Easy to sharpen, fly like darts, plus a great value!

I sure hope they aren't actual size! I'm looking at them on my phone so they are about the size of my fingernail.  :p  Thanks for all the help guys! It looks like there's are a lot of options out there

Can't go wrong with Ace for the price or Grizzly if you want single bevel.

I would recommend the werewolfs, Grizzly 120/130 grain head with a 75 grain steel adaptor, or VPA Terminator.
