What is a good choice for a bow with a 60lb Draw?

laugh 100 grain Thunderheads, for the money, are never going to be replaced by any other head IMO. I shot 7 with 100 grain Montecs this season. They are a little more pricey, but they are a one-piece solid construction steel head that can easily be resharpened without buying replacement blades. I killed the first 4 deer with the same head. Now that I have told you the products I like I will go back to my original statement....Any fixed blade with sharp heads.

Thanks Matt, I have a new bow and had to have the draw alot lighter than in the past in order to bow hunt and was wondering if I needed to go with a different broadhead. I used Muzzy 100gr in the past.

What ever shoots the best out of your bow and with your arrow. It all comes down to sharp and behind the shoulder. I see to many people put on what they want and then it flies horrible and wonder why they miss

I have shot Rages and love them but you can't go wrong with a Muzzy or a SlickTrick. I think I like the ST's better. Good luck!

Without a doubt (IMO) the Muzzy will give you great cut-on-demand with manageable arrow effects. Now I am a fan of many broadheads, but I recently given the Rage a try and I am very impressed. They fly practically like a Field point with the end result looking like a 2" wide sword was used to slice a hole in the deer. You won't get as many pass throughs with a rage, but the entrance hole will bleed a deer out in no time.

A great resource to build your own opinion is YouTube. Look up broadhead comparisons and you'll see different broadheads used in some extreme ways to compare them.

I'm sorry I never came back to visit this thread. I missed your question T-town. I have the G5 diamond stone and it has worked great. I resharpen my Thunderhead blades on it as well. I've put an edge on some of them that makes them hard to handle safely. laugh

A guy I know lost a really good one this past weekend to a Rage, he hit a little forward and hit shoulder. He's shooting 80lbs and 320 fps. A fixed blade and he'd had a really goodun on the wall.

Anyone shooting is just one shot away from a disappointment and a lost deer.All you have to do is scan the bowhunting forums to find multiple hunters crying about lost deer. Yes,
on a perfect shot they will ope a deer up.
How many of us make perfect shots everytime when a wild animal and mother nature can also affect the outcome ?
