100 grain Magnus Stingers.  Not the Buzzcut ones.

Since I asked about arrows what broadheads are you guys using? I have always used 100 grain 3 or 4 blade muzzy's. They have never failed me, but is there something better?

I don't believe there is.  I have used 100 gr. muzzy's for years, I switched to the Muzzy MX 3 this year and like them just as well as the original.  I'd say stick with what works
for you!

I have shot basically every broadhead out there.. I still love my Muzzy MX4 the best.. the damage they have done on elk/deer is unreal and they fly great! also shot Shuttle T Loc this year and liked them, have shot inerloc, magnus stinger, montech etc any broadhead works.. its all about the shot. but I do love the muzzys

Video taped Friday with head gear, shot Sunday without, still had bloody stumps.
The yellow color behind the shoulder is my arrow.

 Thunderhead 100's for me! ... it's all I have ever shot since I started bowhunting in 90.

Killed 6 Elk using Thunder Head 85's. Then Switched to Montec's for one year, to much money. Then switched to Boss Bullet 75 grain. I really like those. Drilled one through my Desert buck at 52 yards in '05 and several Elk. Couldn't find them this year so I bought G5 replaceable blade 100 grainers. Killed my Bull and a Doe this year with those. They performed same as the Thunder Heads. All of these broadheads shot well at extreme speed and performed flawlessly on game.

Bottom line is any broadhead will get the job done if placed in the kill zone. My only concern is how they will fly. These all flew good.

That makes me sick with that moose, who would have thougth they would have dropped already. Thanks for all the info on your broadhead choices. I started using the muzzy's around 97 when I saw a field test where they shot them into a cinder bock and it shattered the block and didn't completely destroy the broadhead. I have also seen them shot through 55 gallon drums.
If you shoot the first one you will never get that true trophy.

My buddy shot his mx4 into a cinder block at 20yrds at 275fps and the broadhead was fine

Are the ferrules bent at all after the shot? I'd love to use a broadhead that I can shoot through an elk more than once and have it spin true. Sounds like I might need to try those out.

The ones shot into the cinder block just needed sharpend. The broadhead seemed fine. I have used the same broad heads before on different deer without changing the blades. Muzzy's are amazing. I just was wanting to know if I've been missing out on something.
