I shoot Stingers at deer and Rocket Hammerheads at turkey. As with every other piece of archery equipment nowadays, making that decision is tough. Sky's the limit.

I shoot rocket hammerhead expandables. With 3 blades and a 2 in cutting dia. you hit them right and watch them fall. Never had one fail to openbut would not recommend them for slow bows. I have shot at angles and haven't had any kick out problems either.

there are lot's of good heads, it's just a matter of picking one that fits your needs best. You can check out my website www.broadheadtests.com for a lot of good info on picking the right head.

NAP Spitfires certainly get the job done, only problem is your tracking skills diminish cause you dont have to follow blood trails when you see the deer fall.
