Default THINKING OF CHANGING BROADHEADS...ANY THOUGHTS?

I currently shoot Rocky Mountain- advantage 100gr. broadheads. After talking to the guys in my hunting party last November, they suggested I look into a multitude of other brands. I liked the performance of the RM' s but they were totally distroyed after a deer kill. I didn' t mind that because it did the job, but would another broadhead have done better. I thought about the Rocky Titanium' s but am unsure. I' m not sold on expandables and feel more comfortable with fixed.
Any feedback is much appreciated.

I' m using titanium revolutions.....
A little $$$, but great broadheads.
I' m not up to date with current broadheads retailers carry in the states but I know it' s much greater than the Canadian ones. Last time I was at Cabelas they had a huge section just on broadheads....it was great.

ONLY " MY" OPINION-stay with the Rocky Mountains_ I have bowhunted all types of Biggame & used many over the past 45 years. I have used them since they came out in the 70s BUT have tried others & when it comes time to head for the woods-I put a 125gr. Rocky Mountain Razor 3 Blade on. I took Elk, Whitetail, Fallow Deer,Axis deer & sevearal hogs(3 -150-250#) this past year. Excellent results thou my son did have 1 head damaged some on a HUGE BOAR. I have seen failure in almost any head-I have seen a few Muzzys end up looking like less than a field tip of a friend of mines-he has switched to another head. E-mail Barrie Archery & mention what happened-I am sure they will make it right. I know there are many excellent heads on the market but most are some type take off of some other head-Rocky " WAS" among the 1st with their type head & have only made it better. Good luck-don' t switch....

I' ve used the RM Ti-100s in the past and was very satisfied with the results. Only got a couple of deer but they worked flawlessly. Why did I change? Well I experiment a lot.....and there were some expandables I wanted to try.
Just my 0.02.

Those are some fine looking broadheads posted by Nub & Bigbulls. I have always used broadheads that have an immediate cutting edge tip on it. Currently using the Steelforce and like em alot.
