Since they quit making Bears, then I would opt for Zwickey also. I don't think I have to worry so much though.

The one I could sharpen the best. That doesn't limit me to one though. I've never had much trouble getting them sharp.
Snuffers are good so are Woodsman. It's hard to argue with WhiteOaks' choice though. If I had to choose one that would work for any game on the planet, I guess it would have to be a Zwickey Delta two blade.

I've been using Zwickey broadheads for awhile now. The last to years I've used the NO Mercy broadheads and like them just fine. Hard to sharpen but very solid. I had a picture of one that I shot a concrete block with. After a little file work that broadhead has take two deer for me this year.

I like the new STOS two blades that have the tanto tip. The 3:1 shape is great....but then the Abowyer Brown Bears have the same dimensions and are built like a Mac truck! Hard to say.

Zwickey eskimo. Plenty strong, easy to sharpen razor sharp, and is the right weight for my setup. I like the woodsman fine, but I am confident that at 45 lb draw at 28 inches, the Zwicky will outpenetrate. At 50-55 lb I have complete confidence in either head.

zwickey - deltas.
I really think your ability to sharpen a broadhead is the most important matter. If you don't keep them sharp; they will not work as they were designed to. You should never shoot a dull broadhead; and that means if you shoot it once- or let it sit in your quiver. It does not mean get it sharp and shoot it into foam- then you need to sharpen it again- so get a head your good at sharpening and shooting; and go with it.
