RE: Broadheads
I suggest one that flies best out of your setup. Get one of those, put it right behind the shoulder and whether its a COI head, a fixed head or expanable you' ll very likely pass through and get a great bloodtrail.
That said, Thunderhead 125' s flies best out of my current setup, a 52# longbow with 300 grain ICS 500 shafts.

RE: Broadheads
I have had very good success with Muzzys. Both 3 and 4 blade.
Zelazny' s right, find one that will work for you. You could look under the broadhead post at the top of the page and see what is working for others.

I have to vote for rockets. They always fly great for me and the exit holes are pretty big. 2 years ago I actually had a buck lose most of it' s lungs through the hole after he ran into a tree.

RE: Broadheads
It really depends on your setup. There are lot' s of great broadheads, both fixed and mechanical and choosing is not all that easy. You have to find out what your Kinetic energy level of your setup is, then decide what you want to shoot, a fixed or mechanical head. Then you have have to find a head that will give you plenty of penetration while still doing the max amount of damage to the animal. The key is getting the right head for your KE level that flys great and penetrates deep.
