Mostly 64-66-inch mild r/d and some straight longbows -- Great Northerns, Robertsons, Dwyers and Hills.  Shoot mostly 55#-60# at my 28- inch draw.  Always wood shafts spined 70# plus and weighing 600 plus grains.  My favorite head depends on what I'm hunting.  These are the heads I use.  

Zwickey Delta two and 4-blades, STOS, Howard Hill and Magnus I two blade. I round the tips on all.

68lb recurve @ 29 inches.

Zwickey Delta
Magnus I
Zephyr Sasquatch

Never tried  Grizzly`s or Eclipse. I`m sure they would make the team if I had, and possibly move a name or two from the top five.

I'm not sure if I ever posted the first time around, but what the heck:

My bows are generally mid-upper 50's at 32". Right now I'm shooting a longbow. Top 5 broadheads I'd use out of it:

1. Ace Standards
2. Anything else by Ace
3. Zwickey Delta 4-blade
4. Zwickey Eskimo 4-blade
5. Zephyr Scirocco 4-blade
