Broadhead test-lots of heads tested

[Jellymon]

Here is a great chart a guy on archery talk put together. He did a lot of unbiased testing. First link is a quick chart of his results, second link is his method and all the results. Might help some of you choose a broadhead this year.

There's nothing explaining the categories so its-
Pen- Penetration
Dur- durability
Dep- dependability
SB- sharp before
SA- sharp after
Flight

slick tricks are good but no way are they nearly as tough as shuttle t's . good post thank's

[Jellymon]

It doesn't say they're tougher, only reason the shuttle scored lower is because of the sharpness scores. Look at the total penetration for the shuttle though!

Glad to see confirmation of what I have always thought. My Steel Force heads are some of the best I have shot.

I use the Helix and there's no other broad head currently in the market I would use in place if it. Devastating, durable, dependable. Love it! My 2 cents.

I would like to see your data backing this statement 

I have smashed through many opposite shoulders and not had a single problem. All blades intact and ferrule still straight. Shuttle Ts are a great head but aren't as sharp as I like.

I shot my Entiat doe w/Strickland's Helix 150gr BH recently, and all I can say is WOW!  Big entrance hole, big exit hole and Lots and Lots of blood!  Blood was still pouring out of her as she was lying dead on the ground!  Plus, they fly like a dart and are tough.  BH seemed just as sharp as before the shot.  No dents or dings even after pulling out of ground on opposite side of deer.

  I've seen more shuttle Ts broken then slick tricks....

OK.... Just to  I performed a shuttle t vs stryker test of my own this past season. Documented with pics. From my data I believe Basically  we can conclude..
 A) That shuttle t's are junk
 B) Strykers are awesome 
 C) shot placement trumps all
or
 D) Shooter should have shot a better arrow than goldtip

   Also as a side note is it bad if the first thing I thought when I pulled the arrow out was if it could start a war on huntwa?

That's a cute puddle of blood from your Stryker.

   Nice!  I understand now....  since shuttle t dont punch all the way through. They hang out in the animal to finish the job.
