    My Z7 is sited in with Muzzy 3 blades - so I'll just leave that as is.... My new rig should be here in the next couple of weeks. I picked up some Trophy Taker Shuttle T-Locks - so I'm planning to give those a go with the new bow....

    My buddy started his own broadhead company D.R.T Broadheads by Dirt Nap Gear. Good looking fixed blades. Looking forward to shooting them. Dirt Nap Gear - Home

    Those look pretty neat.

    I tried to go to GrimReapers (again) this year after trying them w/ my x-bow last year, but just cannot get them to group well with either bow. Went to Hypodermics and was grouping crazy tight. Sticking w/ my NAP Spitfires for the x-bow.

    I switched to the Toxic as well, as shot my bear with it. Worked fine, but wasn't ALL it was cracked up to be. Granted the shot wasn't near perfect.

    I made the switch this season to Ramcats. No tuning was needed when I switched out with my field points. Broadheads fascinate me and Ramcats intrigued me the most this season. I haven't been tied down to one kind of broadhead lately.

    2011- Boss Wasp
    2012- Muzzy
    2013- Ramcats

    The Wasps and Muzzys both performed well. Both killed deer effectively, were cheap and flew like my field points. I was never very impressed with the blood trails on either one. I will probably have another new broadhead in 2014.

    Switched over from the G5 T3's to the Slick Trick Standards this year. Had 2 herniated disc's that I had operated on two years ago and I'm not pulling as much poundage as I used to be so I decided I needed to make a change. They both fly GREAT!!

    I am shooting the spitfires this year. I have had them a couple years but never had the confidence to shoot them. I have been shooting all summer with the practice head and loved them. I am switching over from thunderhead.

    100 gr. Standard Slick Tricks. Been using 100 gr Thunderheads since they came out but always had to readjust sights from FP's to BH's. ST's and FP's are dead on together! Very excited to try these awesome looking heads out!

    went with the G5 T3's. shot two deer Sunday and both died within 50 yds. Blood wasn't the greatest but high lungs will do that. Killed em dead tho and blew through a shoulder.

    Not really new to the market but they are to me, I bought some swhackers last year late and didn't get to use them til this season and shot a coyote with one and a doe with another and put very large holes in both, tracking was very short and heads were definately resuable. Only paid $20 for them from a buddy and was really glad I did!

    I've shot G5 T3's the last couple years. Nothing but good things to say about them. Always worked. Picked up some trophy taker shuttle t's for elk hunting. I'm going to try them on deer to see how they do since they weren't used elk hunting. Both fly great. I like the idea of fixed broadhead. Probably have some of both in quiver

    Couple of buddies shoot ramcats and really like them.
