my favourite is the aussie made blackstump. strong as and so easy to sharpen. i think you guys in the U.S would enjoy them. it's my "perfect head under all circumstances".

This thread has been fun.  My favorite two-blade head? A sharp one!  I've shot Grizzly, Zwickey, Ribteks and Magnus mostly.  Now I've got a bunch of Ace broadheads.  I like 'em all, have complaints about none of them.  

I will say this, when I first started sharpening my own broadheads (22+ years ago) I got them sharp enough to shave, but not "hair-poppin'" sharp.  I hope you all know what I mean when I say that, as to me there is a BIG difference.  I started out with no "trad" mentor and pre-internet.  Figured a bunch of stuff out the hard way.

When I finally met someone who showed me a better way to sharpen broadheads, my blood trails became much, much easier to follow.

I would say, judging from some the pics you all are posting, that your broadheads are more than just "shaving" sharp.  I do believe, all else being equal that sharpness is much more important to serious blood-letting than number of blades.

But, as Terry mentioned earlier, that is from "my" research.  What does "your" research say?

It is good to see a thread, that lasts this long, with-out everyone getting bent out of shape and getting there feelings hurt....Especially with a subject like this......StanM and Terry are correct and "hit the nail on the head" about "my" research, a person tends to stick with what works for them.....A great example of this is of an elderly gentleman who went Bass Fishing with me recently on Lake Guntersville...He had Never fished here before in his life and he asked me what the bass were biting. We were doing very well on Spinnerbaits for the first few hours of daylight.....I ALSO TOLD HIM THEY NEEDED TO BE ANYTHING THAT WAS SHAD COLORED....WHITE, SILVER, BLUE, ETC...THAT WAS THE BEST COLOR BY FAR...well he showed up with a COTTON CANDY/PINK spinnerbait tied on...I told him no way would that work....I tried to loan him a GOOD spinnerbait.....He absolutly kicked my butt catching bass and good ones....he said it was the only color he owned it worked everywhere....So much for me knowing everything  :knothead:  I guess this could apply to broadheads also....but I'm sticking with Multi-blades Myself  :)  .......DAVID, HERE A FEW MORE......

Shot this buck in his right shoulder and broke it, he turned and stood there with his leg hanging wondering what just happened and bam I shoot his other left shoulder braking it.

He tried to run but, both front legs where broke, he had no front end. 1st kill with the   GRIZZLY and it made me a believer .    :thumbsup:
