I really like 4-blade Zwickeys.  Very nice holes, blood trails, but I don't have pix.

Probably 90% three blade here with the Wensel Woodsman but I also have other bows and arrows set up with one carrying Zwickey 4 bladers.  I love the wide 4 blade Zwickeys because I can get them rediculously sharp and I like the solid bleeders.  Have only shot one deer with them but the blood trail was great.  Although I think any broadhed would have done the same where I hit the deer.  No picks of blood, sorry

Magnus 1 4-bladers for me. Between them & Zwickey Delta 4-blade, I'm good to go.

Randy, aka ferretwyo, has used 4 blade stingers for yrs.  He has taken plenty of BIG critters with them.  Not sure if he switched this yr but his elk hunting got hurt by our boss, Uncle Sam.

Results look great, I just have never had the need for more than two blades, grouse to bison.
But that sure doesnt mean I woudn't use them. Great pics.

On deer sized game I have gotten complete pass-thru with both Zwickey Eskimo 4-blade and Bear Razorheads (with the bleeder blades) with 46-47 pound bows.  My shots were under 20 yards and I stuck 'em in the ribs.

I have been shooting the VPA 3 blade but the 4 blade stinger is always on hand. It's a great broadhead.

Terry    Jerry (Orion)  

can you give us some pointers on sharpening them buggers.  I still have a bunch,  and I love Zwickies, but I can't use them on a sharpening jig and am not quite as good at making them real sharp by hand filing.
