Ace Standard. Cheap as can be, and sharpens so damn easy.

I'm going to try the new left wing El Grande Grizzly
probably. If I don't like them back to the Magnus 1 two or four blade or an original WW. So many great heads to chose from who knows.

Recently I've dropped my draw weight from 62# to 55# - and I've been concerned about having enough to consistantly get a pass thru shot.
So this year I am going to use Magnus Stinger 4 blade.  Which co-incidently looks a lot like the old Bear razorheads when you put them side by side - hmmm, old Fred must have know something that the new generation has discovered !!!
I've been experimenting with sharpening using a diamond stone, sharpening guide, etc and I can get them preeeety sharp.  Although I need to take them apart to get the bleeder out and sharpened - which is a bit tedious.
I'm going to stay with heavier shafts too - using the weight tubes in my C.E. Terminator shafts.

Looking forward to my first bow harvest this year. I have the same debate going on in my head... 2 blade for penetration... or 3 blade for blood trail.

Right now it's between Magnus Stingers or Snuffers.

Please steer us right!
