    I am looking for some new broad heads, and being new to Bow Hunting I am confused at the difference in grain Weight. I shoot a Dimond Marquis from Bowtech and I am looking for the most cutting and penetrating power. however i am noticing that there are different grain weights.

    can someone enlighten me?

    The grain weight you should use is more a function of the spine of your arrow than anything. You can use the charts to get pretty close and see what you should use. If you have a decent bow shop to go to, they should be able to help.
    Or if you post all the specifics about your bow, draw, arrow length, size etc someone here should be able to give you a weight to go with.
