My #1 choice for hunting in western Washington is the 100% stainless steel Zephyr scirocco. Same shape as Zwickey except it won't rust and has vents to resist wind planing. For longer shots in open eastern Washington I like the Magnus stinger. Last year got a Muley doe at 51 yards with double carbon longbow, 2016 shaft and Stinger Broadhead.

Zephyr makes a great broadhead as well. When I run out of dead heads they will be my pick.

Zephyr is making some good stuff :tup:  For stainless traditional heads they've really done a nice job. 

But I'm curious!  Why is it people believe vents will resist wind planning?  I've always found that facinating.  Isn't a car with it's windows rolled up more aerodynamic than a car with it's windows rolled down :dunno:  Advertising spin has really gotten the best of bowhunters the last 25 years.

Also, do people honestly believe "stainless" means "rustless"?  I need to get the camera fixed on my microscope ;)  Posting some pics might really open peoples eyes.  And get people shooting some sharper broadheads too!
He asked, Do you ever give a short simple answer?  I replied, "Nope."
