I will be trying Centuar Big game Heads, 170 grains, plus 100 grain brass insert in Beman MFX 400's. Should weigh around 630 grains and I will be shooting 51# Morrison Shawnee longbow with carbon/foam limbs.

Ace Express 165 for elk/bear in CO! Magnus Snuffer 160 for bear over bait when i come back to MN! I can get these heads sharp very fast with the "old" Norton stones and a KME!

Any comination of four of the following;

Ace Express 200s
Snuffer 160s
Woodsman 250s
Zwickey Delta 2/4 blade
Zwickey Eskimo 2/4 blade
Large Deadheads
Small Deadheads
Magnus 1 2/4 blade
STOS 160
Silverflame 210
Silverflame 1-7/8" 185
Grizzly 160
Stone points (150-300gn)

Well, that's what's currently in my 'Bucket o' Death' They all fly well, sharpen well & poke big holes in stuff. I see no reason to discriminate   :)

Abowyer 175 gr Wapiti single bevel on a swaged 2020 out of
a 51# Predator recurve. I can also shoot a 200 gr single bevel on
a swaged 2117. They fly great and they are Tough!

STOS 160's
Woodsman 175's
Stingers 150's
Snuffers various weights

They have all worked in the past and I would expect them to do the same this year. I would think the Woodsman's will see the most use deer hunting this year.

125 or 150 Razorcaps with 100g brass adapters.  I'm going to try some Ace Standards also this year as they are cheap and easy to sharpen.

Abowyer Bonehead 145gr.  I hunt from treestands and I figure it will give me a good chance at a passthrough/exit wound.

Everything I kill I shoot with Magnus 125 grain two blade head.  From Javi's to elk,they go thru and the animal goes down.

I switched from Zwickey Eskimo's to WW's 2 years ago and will probably never shoot another head other than the WW. They just plain work.

Love them old Bear razorheads with the bleeder blades.   Like you, Dave, have quite a few in reserve which should last me for many-a-years.

STOS 125s with a 45 grain insert (out of longbows), and 175 razorcaps (out of recurves) - for deer.   STOS for hogs out of both.   At this point that is all I am scheduled to chase - hogs and deer (and maybe the unlucky turkey).   But who knows.

I love my Bear Razorheads,but I went to woodies this year,so I decided on 145gr Ace standards.I ran them on the belt sander to take off the factory burred edge they come with.They were almost hunt ready just doing that.And they don't cost a fortune...

Sold. :)

Hopefully they will be passing thru some deer this year.I've heard nothing but good things on here about them.
