I will need a bit more info. A lot depends on how much Kinetic energy your setup produces. The key is to match the heads size and performance level to your setup to maximize penetration and cut. if you don't know your KE, them give me your draw length, draw weight, arrow size/style point weight etc. Your arrow weight and speed if you know them.

I would gues your KE level is around 60 ft/lbs + or - a Ft/lbs or two. You need to look at moderate sized heads. rocky Snypers, Vortex 100 grn steel, NAP scorpion, Rocket steelhead, G5 Tekan II etc. all of these heads are medium sized, offer excellent penetration and accuracy.

Not yet, they are not out, but when they hit the market I will be sure and test them. I also have some Rocket Recons on order as well as the new "atom" broadhead.
