2 blade broadheads

[bayhunter]

just curious how many people use 2-blade broadheads, stories, setup, and pics please  

[Night Wing]

With the light poundage bows I've shot for 47 years, I've shot 2 blade broadheads for 45 of those years. The other 2 years, I shot a 3 blade broadhead.

This year, I'm going back to a 3 blade broadhead, but the 75 grain 3 blade broadhead I'm going to be using is the lightest 3 blade broadhead I've ever shot.

With a 2 blade broadhead, I've always mounted the blades horizontal. I don't mount 3 blade broadheads with any set rule.

Ive used both through the years,these days you only find 2blades in my quiver.

I've been using Zwickey single bevel for the last couple of years. Only thing I don't care for is that they take some work to get sharp. Other than that they are super tough.

[Spectre]

Zwickey is my main broadhead, too. However, I have made the switch to right wing so I can use the RFA heads.

this will be my first year hunting with a bow
and im going to use wood with bear razortips just cause it seem right to me hope it works out

[straitera]

2-blades only for 30+ years. Good flight, sharpen easy, & quick kills w/good blood. Prefer complete passthrough w/no arrow left inside the animal. Current arrow totals 700+ grains incl 160gr Ace.

135gr two blade magnus easy to sharpen great penatration

[joe skipp]

Zwickey Eskimo, Delta, Pearson Deadhead, Schulz Hunter heads and .....3 blade Snuffer.

 

[Jon Stewart]

Black Diamond two blade.  Easy to sharpen.

A few years ago I convinced my son who is a compound gizmo and gadget shooter to switch over to the 2 blade eskimo from the 3 blade razor heads.  That is all he uses now.  Couple of years ago he shot a deer, bear and turkey with the same arrow and Eskimo head in the same season.

I've used a wide variety over the years. I'll be using the same 2-blade, single bevel this year as I killed two deer with last year. The "Helix".

My broadhead was 100 grains last year fronting a Beman MFX Classic 600 grain carbon arrow. The arrow weighed only about 414 grains but I achieved complete pass-throughs on two, lung-shot white-tails with a 47# recurve.

This year, for no particular reason I'm going to use spine 500 with  125 grain Helix broadheads to get my total arrow weight right at 500 grains. I don't know whether I'll use the same bow or not -- probably not but the draw weight will be 46-48 pounds at my 26" draw.

[LONGSTYKES]

I use both Grizzlies or Muzzy Phantoms, 200gr up front.  They both work very well.

I've been using Snuffers for a lot of years and never had any problem with them. I am now working with the 2 blade Magnus Stingers that I recieved for xmas past. They seem to fly great but will have to see what kind of blood trail they leave if I'm fortunate enough to be able to hunt and get a chance at a deer. You know reading this thread convinces me that the more things change the more it is still the same. Hunters used to have these same conversations about 2vs3 blade heads it seems like forever.  Man I love archery!!!  

[awbowman]

I shoot 125 grain Magnus BuzzCuts with 50 grain insert up front.

[huskyarcher]

I shoot 2blade Magnus screw in heads. They have performed flawlessly on several deer. Good blood, only complaint would be that the blood trails are too short! i enjoy trailin as much as shooting!  

[Tom]

Used Zwickey's for more years than I want to admit to. Used stinger's for a few recent past seasons but am headed back to Zwickeys this year.
 Nothing wrong with the big 150 4 blade stingers but just like the old tried and true, sharpen easily and the only damage I've had is when I get a pass thru and hit a rock.Killed 8 deer and 1 turkey with the same bh, can't argue with those results.

[Stumpkiller]

I have used Magnus MA125 and RibTek 125 W and S (though I prefer the S version) with good results on whitetail and smaller game, and this year hope to verify the 130 gr STOS is a good performing head.  I use wood shafts of between 560 and 650 grains all up weight.

the buck in my avatar i shot last year with my long bow. specs at the bottom. he was about 20 yards slightly quarting away. i shot him through the back of both lungs. got a complete pass through. he ran about 30 yards away and stopped didnt know what happened. he stood there for about 1 min and then fell over. he tried to get back up but couldnt. i watched him fall asleep.

i was shooting a 475 grain arrow with 150gr magnus stinger 2 blade

Vantage Point Archery, makers of the fine line of Terminator 3-blades, has a new 2 blade under development. I'm on their pro staff and am expecting some prototypes of the head before too long.  When I have a chance to test one I'll post the results on TG.

Two bladed Zwickeys, Eskimo and Deltas for years. last year for a change I tried Ace Express two blade and they worked fine. I bought a package of Snuffers to use if I go bear hunting next spring. Seems for bears three blade broadheads get the nod. Bigger hole and not as likely to clog up with fat.
