Broadheads, Single Bevel and/or 150 Grain

[Brandon Pattison]

What are good two-blade, single bevel broadheads that are 150 grains?

Strickland Helix comes in a 150 or the Grizzly single bevels come in a 155.

I love the idea behind the Strickland Helix. I asked them about a blade design that was just one blade angle (like the Grizzly) but they said not at this time. A flat surface is much easier to re-sharpen.

Eclipse heads might be what you're looking for. That said I've never used one, just seen the ads....

I have the Strickland Helix's in 150gr for my buffalo hunt this winter and the 125gr for elk and love em. As far as sharpening just buy their $20 sharpener. I bought it and it's KISS simple to get your heads sharp as hell. The sharpener has a right and left bevel side

The more I read about single bevel broadheads the more I hear how they suck for blood trailing. I think that I will stick to 2-blade with bleeders or 3 or 4 blades.

I think single bevel is hype. Regular dual bevels kill just fine. Franklin, a VPA 150gr 3 blade is just what the Dr ordered. Damn near indestructible.

My buddy and I both took Blacktails with the Helix last year and will be using them again this year on elk and whatever else we can find that we have tags for. Quick kills and there was so much blood it was hard to avoid. We have had a great experience with them so far and I just ordered more

Hoping to arrow my first deer with a Helix this weekend.

Ok I'll bite...

Read or find the Dr Ed Ashby 30+ year broadhead research, and then decide if they are hype. You can/will kill any large species with any sharp broadhead, regardless if fixed or mechanical, on double-lung/heart shots. But what if you have buck fever or are winded from a dash uphill or you've held full draw for over 30 seconds, and as a result your anchor shifts ever so slightly and you hit a shoulder or spine? Single bevels are meant to facilitate killing/bone-breaking/maximum tissue damage on poor shots.

That said I personally never make poor shots, and I have never suffered from buck/bull fever... yeah right
