Muzzy broadheads
I like the 3 blade 125 grain but the 4 blade 100 grain are excellent as well.
I agree with the muzzy broadheads but I like the 3 blade better, The muzzy heads are very strong and bust through bone with no problem. I have even miss hit deer quartering away through the front shoulder and they have had no problem fixing my mistake just destroying the front shoulder
muzzy 3 blade always make sure you use a 3 blade or 4 for a good clean kill
I prefer the Fred Bear Broadheads….The farthest any Whitetail every went was eight(8*) yards…..
Muzzy’s a pretty good brand but I have been getting some really good performance form the Crimson Talon broadheads. I hit a deer with one of these and I got a huge blood trail and the deer droped maybe 10-15 yards away.
Wow ! Am I the only one who like Thunderheads ?
I have hunted with the 100gr Muzzy 3 blade fixed head and loved it. I want to try the new MX-3 from Muzzy this year. It’s supposed to have a short profile which leaves less area to affect the flight. Muzzy’s are tough!
I’ve never tried the Muzzy’s, but they sound pretty popular. I’ve always used the Wasp 100 grain expandables. One thing I would suggest though, broadheads usually come in three to a package. Buy two packages and use one or two broadheads for target practice. Your arrows will fly different with them, and some of your broadheads may whistle when in flight. I’ve had that happen with the Sattelite broadheads, but not the Wasps. Good luck, and archery is a blast; you’ll be glad you’re getting back into it. I’ve had good luck with my expandables so far, several does and a six pointer. BUT, as most anyone would tell you, arrow placement (not broadhead) is the key.
Rage mechanicals.
I’m an expandable man. Grim Reapors are the best by me. Killed probably eight deer with reapors and never had any problem, good blood every time. The one guy is right though, any sharp broadhead is good as long as you hit them in the right spot.
I have taken over 40 deer with bows and have done so with cut on impact heads! I do shoot a cut on impact expandable now with good clean kills!
I have taken 6 deer with other heads but came back to cut on impact!
You will find that almost all broadhead manufaturers are going back to some type of cut on imact head because of super ***********.
All broadheads are a tool keep them tuned and razor sharp but never forget accuracy!
Fixed blade. I shoot montec 100gr by g5. They really put the smack down on the deer.
100gr thunder heads are the best.
The ones that shoot with ur field points. My bows shoot Montecs & ABC Sonics best. I shoot 3-D weekly. I have never witnessed pin point groups from any Muzzies. It’s just a name & yes I fell for it, they were the first broadheads I bought but I’ve now learned better…………….
