I really like the way the G5 Strikers fly! I've killed two bull elk, a mule deer and a javelina with the 100 gr.broadhead. My buddy shoots the Thunderheads and really likes them. Muzzy's don't shoot as well for me but I've got friends that shoot them. I think if you find one you like and you shoot it well stick with it. It's about shot placement and super sharp blades imo.
I am a fan of Muzzy. Last year I shot my deer at 65 yards with a 100 grain 3 blade and it went through both front shoulders and he almost dropped on the spot.
I was going to shoot Wac'em's this year for fun to try something new but honestly I don't think a broadhead is word more than $5-7.
If your bow is tuned and you sight in with your broadheads you will kill what you hit with them.
Wac'em Triton 100 gr head for me! Thet are very reliable and fly like field tips at all distances! I use the Triton XL's for Turkey. This large cutting head flies like field tips as well.

Our group all shoots G-5 Strikers 100gr on Easton FMJ 340's with Blazers. On a calm day with no wind you can cover a quarter at 50 yds and tennis ball at 60 yds. Strikers shoot same as field points on a quality bow with small diamiter arrows and Blazers.
The kenetic energy with total arrow weight 466 gr. is unbelievable on elk using Strikers and this set up....
Yes, and I am sure titanium is very expensive which is why the price is way up. However you would have a head that would stand right up there with steel and still be light weight. What I don't understand is why the heck Rage didn't fix their dang problems! Why bother?? Same design, same problems wont make a difference what they are made of.
Has anyone here tried the Double Whammy by Inventive Technologies in American Fork? I really like this broadhead, it flies extremely well and the blades are .045 thousandths compared to a lot of blades at .025-.030 thousandths of an inch. Durable broadhead and locally manufactured for us utards.
I love the big ole snuffers. I have shot them for about 25 years now and I still don't think there's a better head made from the standpoint of killing critters with a bow.
Have a good one and choose your broadhead wisely, as it just happens to be the most important piece of equipment a bowhunter uses.
