Broadheads for 45 lb bows

[LookMomNoSights]

VPA is having a killer sale right now on the glue ons specifically.  Marked down almost $20 a pack!

Sharp ones is about all that matters if it is put in the right place

Opening morn NY. Pass through and buried in dirt

A little late to the party but any 2 or 3 blade cut on contact head will work out of a 45# bow. A 45# bow is not a lightweight.

Doubt I'll ever have all of 45# on my fingers.  At 40#ish I've had great results w single bevel grizzlies, Magnus stingers, 3 blade vps and yep--Eskimos.  I've heard a lot about how soft the Eskimos are, so I paid attention this year.  After taking a doe in which the Eskimo went through offside shoulder (meat only), it still felt sharp.  Less than a minute on strop and it was popping hairs!  I guess that makes it my new favorite.

PS--- yes I know a lot of coc heads will do this, but not many at the price point I paid for the Eskimos.

The only reason I’d personally gone away from Zwickey was they were unavailable way too long. Thanks for response.

 Well they are available now and with improved machinery.

I'm running Z4s through hogs and javies with them with my 50# Centar.

I also agree with the 1/8 cut 3 blades.

For 100 grain heads I like the original Muzzy 3 and 4 blades, for 125 -175 its a toss up between Tooth of the Arrow and VPA, and for 200+ Zwickeys with steel adapters. I generally try and keep arrow weight over 550 grains and get them flying as well as possible.

[Flbowhunter]

Put simply, a sharp one. I’m not sure if anyone’s mentioned stingers yet but that would be my pick for a light bow. Another option would be a Simmons mako shark for a little wider cut. Woodsman’s are always a good choice.

[Bowguy67]

Thanks for the input guys. I appreciate it. Doesnt seem anything dramatically different so far from low 50s weight. I’d just never gone that light

My set up is a Northern Mist Classic, 46@28 and a Creek Walker Gator 45@28. For both I use Douglas Fir 55-50 and 60-65 spine, cut to 31inches, 5 inch shield cut fletchings and both the Simmons 165 Glue on and the Ace 200 gr Glue ons. At 18 yds and in, both shoot pretty much the same out of both bows. Speeds are 146 to 148 over my Garmin. Haven't gotten a shot at a deer yet, but I think if I do my part, my equipment will get the job done.
