Best Head for Mule Deer and My Bow -

Diamondrock · 11-05-2011, 08:05 PM

OK here we go, I'm shooting a Diamond the Rock at 60 pounds with a 26" draw. 369 grain arrow at 250 FPS for 51.3 ft lbs of kinetic energy. I'm using a QAD HDX Rest...

I am wondering which head would be the best for my set-up and my purpose; hopefully I'll get responses from others with the same type of gear, draw weight/length and arrow speed.

Well I imagine muleys and whitetail are pretty close to the same creature. And I shoot 60 lbs at 27.5" and feel confident using just about any broadhead on the market for whitetail.

The smaller Shwackers should do the trick.

OK thanks guys. I have two broadheads in my arsenal right now, a fixed 3 blade and a mechanical 2 blade, since the mechanicals fly exactly like my target tips I will more than likey use them.

for a fixed blade, you should shoot the Magnus Stinger or Magnus Buzzcut. Quality product, great price, and the best warranty out there. If your fixed broadheads don't have the same POI as your field tips, you need to broad head tune your bow. Go to the Easton site, and download the bow tuning pdf. Go to page 11. Apparently I'm not allowed to post links or pics, as I don't have enough posts.
