What are your guys favorite broadheads? I am looking to try a new broadhead this year. I want to shoot 175 grain heads. I like the look of the two blade single bevel grizzlies but not sure I want to go as narrow as 1" for deer.

I like anything VPA makes...pricey but well made and a lifetime warranty. I had a 3 blade screw in that didn't spin 100% true. It shot fine though. I mentioned that head to VPA in an unrelated email and 3 days later I got a new 3 pack in the mail! I didn't ask for it to be replaced (let alone 3 new heads!), I just wanted them to know about it because I have been on a hunt with the owner and I know he is all about quality control. VPA also makes Cutthroat broadheads for RMSG and they are the easiest to sharpen single bevel head that I have owned. Good luck in your search for a new broadhead! Mike

I have used the Eclipse Werewolf Single Bevel in 175 grains for deer, boar, and gator.  It is an underrated head.

Zwickey Delta is 175g in a screw-in model. Zwickey is a time-tested, time-proven head. Tough as nails. And you can buy two 3-packs of them (or more) for what several other heads cost for 3.

The ONLY BH I use are 235 gr. Grizzly Kodiaks right bevel with a 75 gr. steel adapter.  The past 4 years have taken 2 moose, bull elk, whitetail buck, 3 Javelina and 2 hogs ....... so far.  My personal "Best Buy".  

Actually anything Grizzly makes is going to be great.  Haven't tried the 3 blade Instincts but have heard good things about them.

Grizzly Instinct
Woodsman
Snuffer....in this order of preference, although any of the three are first class broadheads.
Never measure the mountain until you have reached the top, then you will see how low it is.
