Members hambone80 Posted June 5, 2009 Members Posted June 5, 2009 Just wanted to see what your favorite broadheads are. I'm a fixed blade guy myself. I've always wanted to try mechanicals, but I heard/read some bad things about them from time to time. I'm really into the Red Head Blackouts available at BPS. They're made by G5 and are almost identical to the G5 Strykers, but they are 1/16" less in cutting diameter and 10 dollars less in price. The blades are the sharpest I've seen right out of the package and for me they shoot right with my fieldpoints. Shooting 1/2" groups at twenty yards. I can't wait to put 'em down this season.
catman Posted June 5, 2009 Posted June 5, 2009 I've used Vortex blades for years they are mechanicals & open up to 3", I don't think they are even in busness anymore. They were high priced 15 years ago @ $5 bucks a piece. I still have 10 of them left. I've hit deer in the neck on very close shots and almost take there heads off. I was born at night, but not last night. Odds are with the prepared...

Members Deer Slayer Posted June 24, 2009 Members Posted June 24, 2009 Completely agree with Fishmeister- 2 Blade Black Diamond for my recurve, 100 grain Rage for the compound.
Members hunter@heart Posted June 25, 2009 Members Posted June 25, 2009 NAP Spitfire 100 grain. I have used these for years and only remember one deer that I have shot with these that got more than 50 yards after it was shot. Most dropped within eyesight.
Members shadman Posted June 25, 2009 Members Posted June 25, 2009 mechanicals all the way,, spitfires are reasonable,, i like 125 grain... shoot just like fieldpoints in open areas,,,, notso good in brush, but we shouldnt take those shots anyway, right? lol
Members hendernt Posted July 13, 2009 Members Posted July 13, 2009 I shoot sonic pro 100 grain heads and they took a deer down @ 60 yds with a clean pass through and stck in a cedar tree behind the deer the deer fell about 20 yds away from where I hit it. They shoot just like my field points as well
Members Rackersc Posted August 29, 2009 Members Posted August 29, 2009 Rage 100 grain and WASP Jackhammer
