    Hey Ya'll! I just bought my first bow a couple weeks ago. I am stoked to do some hunting (never hunted for anything bigger than a squirrel). Up here in Washington, I am looking to take advantage of Elk, Deer, and Turkey. Is it possible to have a broadhead that will bag me all three (assuming I bag anything)? Mechanical? Fixed? I'm cheap. Really cheap. Gimme your input. Be gentle. I'm new to this.

    Original Muzzy 125 3 blade will do nicely for anything you hunt. Many are going to decapitation blades for turkeys though.

    For the money it will be hard to beat an original Muzzy 3 or Slick Trick.

    NAP Thunderheads probably have the most value for a great, proven head. The packs come in 6 for about the same price as most other heads pack of 3.

    I'll give another vote for the NAP Thunderhead. It's killed more animals than any other broadhead on the market and is a great value. If they were going to stop making broadheads tomorrow, that's the one I would stock up on.

    Another vote for VPA's, only way you stop shooting them is if you lost it.

    NAP KILLZONES for mechanicals.........no extra parts like rubber rings or plastic collars they fly well and cut nasty
    I'm leaning toward a non replaceable blade fixed blade due to its re sharpen ability, VPA terminator for sure, solid construction........kill a few zombies and sharpen it, back to the quiver for more zombies :)
