There are roughly 4 1/2 million threads covering this very subject. If you were to perform a search, you would be absolutely inundated with opinions on the subject.

 Zwickey Eskimos for me. Going to try the Steel Force traditionals and classics very soon.

For me, I like Zwickey eskimos, 125 grain, I am sure there will be a wide variety of answers here.

Good Luck

Several tough 2 blade heads out there, but I think the Eclipse heads are a notch above the rest.

I like the Ace standard. Easy to sharpen and very tough, fly great and priced fairly.I also just like the way they look.  Bob

I'm presently using Magnus II broadheads. But I also have some Ace standards on hand that I plan to try.

I use Zwickey Eskimo's.  Blades are 125 gr, and with the threaded insert come up to 150 gr.

I use Stricklin Helix single bevel ....

Only comes in a screw-in but is hunt ready sharp and 85, 100, single set screw 62-thousandths of an inch thick and 125, 155, 200, 230grain double set screw 72-thousandths thick ....

 

Concrete wall 10 feet ..... GT 3555 5" RW Shield, 100gr insert, with 100gr RW Helix .. Helix was in great shape but the impact almost knocked the fletch off   :)  

 

When I shoot wood I use Abowyers ....

I like the Magnus 1 in both 135 grain and 160 grain... but there are many good choices as you can see...

Hard to make a mistake w/2-blade BH's; Bear, Zwickey, Ace, Magnus, Stos, Grizzly, etc. Make sure it's hair shaving sharp & you're good.

My opinion and the 1st choice for me without any doubt is the Abowyer single edge "any model"

I also use the Strickland Helix, single bevel 2-blade. Complete pass-through on a doe at 21 yards. She went 52 yards and crashed. Make sure you get the same bevel (right or left) to match your fletching (righ vs. left wing).  I shoot the 100 grains with 75 grain insert in Beeman MFX Classic shafts.

Magnus I 160 or the Ace Standard 160.

Both are tough, fly great and priced right. Magnus even has a lifetime replacement warrenty.
