Easton Power bolts and 100 gr Rocket Steelheads. Only using mechanical cause it is what my compound likes and I have them. I would move on to fixed blade broadheads if they were as accurate out of the Xbow as there just seems to be less to go wrong.The biggest reason I would try fixed as you can practice with them all day not worrying about O-Rings.
Hey Green Pee...Do you know how much the Power Bolts weigh???>>>Whack!

Oops.. I did mean Green Pea not Green Pee. I must have urine on the mind or the colonoscopy I have scheduled for Monday which is also opening day here. Geez....I thought I remember the Power Bolts weighing in at over 400 grs but that seems like way to much. They do seem to be cooking right along and a few FPS is not gonna make much difference to me out to 30 yards. Who knows, but I do like picking them up at $5 bucks each. Sure cheaper than cut to length arrows for the compound. >>>>>>>Whack!!!

Horton lightening strike arrows and spitfire 100's. Fly 2" lower than field points (minor adjustment). Two deer already this year and they have hit very well with massive damage.
