I've been very pleased with the Ace line of heads that I've been using for a few years now.  Great, strong heads, well made, sharpen well and stay that way.  If you limit me to one model, I'll shoot the Ace Express 165's.    :thumbsup:

Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside thoroughly used up, totally worn out, with bible in hand and loudly proclaim...WOW...What a Ride!!!

Magnus II
Reasons:

1.  You said one broadhead for everything.  Magnus II will penetrate well enough for any game that I will hunt or hope to hunt.

2.  I have modified these broadheads to accept a Bear razorhead insert.  Works very well.  Simple dremel tool cutting disk to make slot.

3.  Easy to sharpen

4.  I have plenty of room in my bow quiver for them.

5.  They are black and don't tease my eye at full draw

6.  They fly well

7.  They are still reasonably priced.
