Mathews Halon set at 70#, Spott Hogg 5 pin sight and I still like a whisker biscuit for the ease and reliability.  Just had arrows shortened a bit and inserts added for more weight and improving FOC, have 125 grain tips and an insert, at 464 grains overall arrow weight and 13.5% FOC.

Last year I shot a bull with GrizzlyStick single bevel 125 grains overall arrow broadheads.  Penetration was good but blood trail was abysmal to non-existent.  Recovered the bull and it didn’t run far, but I want more blood so I’m looking at something with more cutting edge this year.  Thoughts from this group?  Looking at iron will single bevel but with bleeders.
