So many good heads these days and all of them will do fine. I've been using Grizzly's for several years now.

I really like the woodsman heads. Easy to get sharp and short blood trails.

I don't have "A" favorite, but I bought a slew of 160 Magnus 2 blade before they quit making them. I haven't found anything that they won't kill, I'd shoot a T-Rex with one.
Simmons Tree Sharks I have and like but the Centaur heads are heavier built and available in glue on. Snuffers have never let me down and are an easy blood trail to follow. All are easy to sharpen up to the point that you are scared to be in the same room with them.

Zwickeys, Ace standards, Magnus II. I've narrowed it down about as much as I can....

have a few bear razorheads left from the early 70's that I use from time to time. Went through a time where 125gr snuffers were my go to head. Last 20 years or so been mostly about 2 blades, grizzly, rib tek and stos. Lately been settled on ace 145 or 160's. Pretty rough out of the package, but like razorheads respond very well to file sharpening. So I can touch them up in the field with only a file. Very good quality at a good price.

Nowadays we are blessed with tons of great broadheads, lately I am been using single bevels. The only 3 blade I like are the VPA, Cutthroat , Grizzly, Abowyer, Tuffhead are all on my quivers. Since they are sharp I can go wrong.

Many excellent choices these days.
My own go to's in order of game toughness, tbe quarry being pursued and the fire power of my set up. :
1, VPA 250 gn two blade
2, VPA 250 gn three blade
3. Big Jim 300 gn three blade
4. Simmons Tree Shark
Have proven selfconfidence in all of the above.

Zwickey Delta or Stos.
The Eclipse looks promising as well, but I have not killed anything with it yet.

Zwickey or Magnus. I wish the old green head Bear points were still readily available.

Hard to beat the Ace line of heads. Their 165 gr Express is a personal favorite. If you like them wide, the 175 or 200 gr Super Express should be right up your alley.

I keep going back to the grizzly single bevel but I would definitely use a bigger head on whitetail if I could get good flight.
