I’ve killed a boat load of deer with a zwickey delta. Sometimes I put standard inserts in them for a finished weight of 170 or so. Sometimes brass when i want a finished 200 grain head.

I usually forgo the model with bleeders.

This is going to be my first year going full trad instead of a compound. Currently tuned up with 200 gr 1.25" VPA 3-blades that will hopefully get blooded in the next couple weeks.

I’m using slick trick viper tricks for most hunts and slick trick 2 blades for elk. I just like how sharp and no nonsense they are.

Zwickey Eskimos this year since dropping down in weight, they've performed great. Prior years I've used Wensel Woodsman's with great success. Bow is a 47# Toelke whistler.

I killed some deer with the old blue anodized Super Razorheads back in the early 2000’s. Always got pass throughs with my 50lb Martin recurve an aluminums with zero tuning. The chisel tip was great for not skating on bone on quartered shots, still file them on my broadheads today.

Shot Simmons Swampsharks for a couple years and a couple deer. I like the idea and they make big hatchet wound holes. But they’re a bitch to sharpen compared to more conventional shaped heads and my 41lb longbow is a little underpowered for that much cut.

Have been using Zwickey Deltas and Cliffs the last couple years. Way better penetration with my little dinky bow, passed right through a buck a couple weeks ago cutting ribs like a bandsaw.

Lucked onto a bunch of Tusker Aztecs not long ago. They sharpen and shoot really well, I like them better than the Zwickeys in the sharpening department. They might be bad luck though, I missed a deer yesterday morning with one.
