favorite broadhead for the money??

[owlbait]

Only you can decide how ethical or unethical a shot is. Nobody else will be able to convince you otherwise. Broadheads are made to kill by terminally disrupting the circulatory or respiratory systems. Head shots and spine shots don't fit what  b'hs are designed to do. SOMETIMES the results are the same, but in many cases they are not.

Add another for Zwickey 2 blade.

Before we left Africa our PH had us all shoot into an elephants shoulder blade, the only head that could be used after shooting was a Zwicky Delta 4 blade.

Do you recall what other blades were shot?

I would like to know as well what other bh's were used in this testing.

I'll bet the new Tuffhead would pass!

[mnbwhtr]

I was shooting ribtek 145's, folded over about in half, the others were shooting Bear razorhead, also folded up and rocky mountain titanium 4 blade, the nosesmashed up on that one.
 The 4th person was shooting the zwicky's.

Ready7 to shoot screw in I would opt for BuzzCuts. Screw in resharpenable would be Zwickie Eskimos or Deltas . Take pick.
Biting my tongue on the head shot thing. I saw a deer shot in the jaw by a guy trying that once. It was not a pretty scene. I'll leave it at that. God bless you all, Steve

OK...  I'll add the Zypher heads... Sasquatch and Scirocco.  I love em and have kill a good bunch of stuff with em.  I like hollow ground edges.

If ya get in a pinch you can stone em into flat ground edges and they have been a tough head for me.

Just received 9 sasquatch from Horne's yesterday. I think I paid $90 including shipping which is about all I would spend on broadheads. They look great for deer. They were hair popping right out of the package, but I plan on polishing them further with a paper wheel. This will be the first year that I will use them. First impression is very good.

I have tried the sasquatches , and was disappointed that the welds broke! I looked it up, and it seems there has been issues with the welds on them. I was disappointed, and could not risk it anymore! I do have several new ones, if you are interested on them .

Yikes! Did they fail in the field, or on targets? I am not sure that I woudl use them on anything other then deer ot turkey. I thought the weld looked pretty good. Hope I don't have the same experience though.

[Dave Lay]

I have had the same thing happen with sasquatch's . the blade broke loose from the furrel (sp) on several heads, i have lost the main blade in a bear and a deer, Talked to hornes and they felt i may have been getting them to hot while mounting them, so I epoxied the next few  but had the same results, one in a foam target.  Its a shame, they are a killing head with precision mounting and fly great.

[stevewills]

head and spine shots...sounds like someone should be cutting shooting lanes,and prepping his hunting area before season

[Thebear_78]

A head shot on a deer isn't even a good idea with a rifle.   There is just too much margin for error.     I have found several deer over the years that had faulty shots into their head.  Usually the shot just damages the face or jaw leaving the animal to suffer for days before eventually dying.    

I think its an ego thing,  too many people watching sniper movies and wanting to be "as cool".   Seriously get over yourself and take the vital shot.

That's what stops me from buying Abowers, it looks like a weak point to me and I've seen a couple posts where folks have complained about it. Tuffheads look like tanks but I wish they made them 1 1/4" wide...can't please everyone. So I shoot STOS or cough up the cash for Asbey's
