Mechanical's are Illegal for Deer.

Love my G5 montechs.

[lokidog]

I like my Muzzy MX-3's.  If you can, I would suggest trying to borrow some broadheads and see if one works better than others for your setup.  This is, of course, after tuning your arrows carefully. 

[demontang]

Ive shot muzzy and they never failed. Theres lots of great heads out there. The new truefire t1 is the next one im going to try.

steel forse makes a tough blade and slick trick four blades fly well and cut even better .

Disclaimer: Mechanicals are illegal in WA

having said that, two seasons ago i was hunting in a mechanicals are legal location and the guy i was hunting with had a set of 3 blade rage heads, we put a sneak on a doe and he pin wheeled her, i have never in my life seen a blood trail that prominent or see an arrow stuck deer die so quickly it was impressive the wound holes were HUGE and made me a believer in mechanicals

Now mechanicals being illegal in WA rules them out

Ive shot deer with cabelas FX3's, muzzy's and even (dare i say it knowing BH45's stance and everyones opinion) Wasp boss bullets. the FX3's are junk in my opinion had two have blades fall out in the quiver and yes they were put together properly, the muzzy's did just as advertised and even the wasp boss bullets killed a deer dead. the wasp required the least amount of tuning in my set up practically same as field points.

best advice i would give is shoot a few and see which fly the best for you out of your set up and make sure they are sharp

It's all about shot placement no matter what head you use. I've killed deer quick over the years. When I last hunted 7 years ago I was using Thunder heads. I'm going to use Magnus Snuffer broadheads in 100gr.

ive went through a few broadheads in my short archery career.grizz tricks fly well out of a well tuned bow but i have yet to kill anything with one.shuttle ts are the best flying quietest broadhead i have personally shot.
the only experience i have with mech heads is last week i went n grabbed 2 packs of ulmer edges for turkey season and i could only get one to spin true so i decided on my trusted shuttle ts and phatheads

I really like wac'em broad heads. 

[EA338AI]

85 grn Montec G5.  Best i have seen on penetration

[bow4elk]

Wac'em just sent me a pile to test and hunt with this year...the new four blade "EXIT".  I am a lifelong NAP guy (Thunderhead line, Nitron 100), but tested the Muzzy MX-3 and MX-4 last two years - all GREAT products.  Don't overlook Shuttle-T's either!

[yakimarcher]

I use Zwickey eskilites, 6pack costs less than 3 of almost anything else, but my old Martin only gets up to about 265 fps.

[D-Rock425]

I really think you'll like the wac'ems

[HUNTINCOUPLE]

Old school here. Thunder Heads 125. Provin time and time again. Also easy to locate if you need more. NAP!!!!!

Love my 100 gr. Steel Force.

Be carefull using the trufire t1, there is a barb on the back of the blade that may make them illegal here.

It is illegal as the definition is written in the regs.  But, I've seen exceptions for similar things in the past.  That barb can be quite big if your arrow diameter is small.  So if I was going to shoot it I'd be sure to have a signed exception by the state.  Never know when some gamie with a Napoleonic inferiority complex is going to start getting nasty about it.

I have a ? for you guys. I was looking at the Steel Force Sabertooth. It seems like it would make a bigger hole but would they be legal.

Look legal to me.

[turkeyfeather]

I wasn't sure if the serrated edges would go against the definition of a legal broadhead (smooth) or be considered a type of barb.

[Jellymon]

The barb were talking about is on the back(unsharpened) part of the blade. The back of the blade cant angle toward the point, it has to go straight down or angle backward. Serrated cutting edges are legal.

[turkeyfeather]

Cool thanks. That being said has anyone ever tried these. I have been using the regular Steel Force heads and like them.

I would stick with the regular ones.  Much better wound channel, better bleeding and you can sharpen near 100% of the blade instead of 25% of the blade.  Serrated generally means small sharp points followed by large dull spots fore and aft.  That's great for carrots and cheese.  Not so much for killing live critters.

Regular blade Steel Force is a pretty dang good head.

[coachcw]

steel force with bleeders are a dam good head and fly well when set with the string , make sure you use the bleeders much better blood trail.

[turkeyfeather]

Last fall I took my first deer with them. She didn't go 20 yards. Much bigger hole than the muzzys
made.

Slick trick magnums - 2 elk full pass through and big holes.
