Title: broadhead for boars
Post by: lewy on March 17, 2011, 07:01:31 AM
I'm going on a boar hunt in July and am looking for a good broadhead for the job. Who has had good luck with what? No restrictions either, mechanicals are ok......Thanks :)

I have never hunted boar but have seen the shows and read the articles in various rags. One thing I always hear is fixed blade only, no mechanicals. I would thing with enough arrow to do the job a good 3 blade like the G5 line would do the job.

I picked myself up a muzzy 3 blade 100gr this year after i did a broadhead tune they were flyin nice wth my filds. I then did the jug test wth water n it was leakin pretty good.

Any sturdy fixed blade head will do fine.  Just remember to take lots of arrows and broadheads if you'll be at a ranch that you expect lots of shots.  A buddy went in Texas and ended up with a full 2 dozen arrows and broadheads getting ruined from pass-throughs hitting stuff.

I've killed a couple hogs and seen another couple killed, all with 125gr Thunderheads, worked well and hogs went no where with good hits.

Ive killed 5 hogs using slick trick 100gr work awesome and leave big holes that dont close and are very tough i use them for all my hunting.   :twocents:

I would recommend any good fix bh from all the popular brand will do the job.  Hog is not any different than elk or moose.  Good luck.

I think any good broadhead that you would use for deer or elk will be just fine.
