Rust is a real issue if they get wet. Some blade wax from MKC works really well. Vaseline also works, its cheaper but a bit more mess.

Trophy Taker Shuttle T. Flies true as a field point. Pass thru on every animal I’ve killed to date except last seasons Buck.  Since starting archery in 2015 that amounts to 6 big game animals taken in 8 seasons. My buck last season I crushed quartering away at 65 yards, arrow passed thru the heart and then was stopped by the front right leg bone, but only after breaking the bone in the process. Broadhead still sharp and ready to hunt.  There are new products out there that are more expensive and have better advertising but I stick with what has worked for me. Good luck this next season sounds like you’ll need a lot of vacation days to fill all those tags!!
No complaints with my shuttle T's, devastating to the animal.

Iron Will broadheads are as good as they get!!!!

A2 steel is pretty rust resistance but it is not immune.  With that said I haven't had any issues yet with them inside of a tight spot quiver.

I just ordered some day six 100's with 3/4 bleeders on Friday, looking forward to seeing how they fly

I shot Shuttle T's for a long long time, but when Dan Evans sold them, they seemed to have lost some of their quality. I and my kids have been shooting QAD Exodus for the last 4-5 years and they are wicked and fly great.

For my IW broadheads I snagged a tin of the Jag Wax from Valkyrie archery.  Its relatively cheap, goes a long way and is in a nice little package.
