Having shot Eskimos for yrs, I went to a different head this past yr, but after great luck with the Eskimos for many yrs. I think Im going back. What a great head with a great history of successes.
Who's shootin'em?

125g 4 blade eskimos and the original WW are what I prefer. Fly great and I can put a hell of an edge on both of 'em with ease!

Blaino, ease of putting an edge on them is one of biggest reasons for going back, that and the fact that they fly great, as well as getting the job done in short order.

Been shooting them since 1979. I also like the 135 grain 2 blade Zwickey Deltas.

For the money you can't beat them. I got my first trad kill with a zwickey delta. Then I went to vpa and stos now back with 4 blade deltas and eskimos. I wont ever turn back. They are the best head out there.

I went from Hilbres mounted on Microflights (glass arrows) to Eskimos a long time ago and except for trying Magnus it has been Zwickey all these years. The biggest animal I regularly kill however is the whitetail and I shoot low # bows. They are easy to sharpen, fly right and the two blades give me the penetration I need despite 40#ish bows. Lou

Count me in. Eskimo's are my go to head. I'll have to try the Delta's, Iv heard a lot of good comments on them. I do wish they would make a 160 grn. zwickey. Also partial to Ace. The first Bh I shot was the four blade eskimo back in about 1971 or 72

Been using eskimos for many years. I've tried other heads, but always go back to the eskimos. Good flight, easy to sharpen and inexspensive. Whats not to like?
