Getting back into bowhunting...Not real familiar with expandables, have heard all the bad stories. Shot Thunderheads in the past...
Any insight on the newer stuff?

I've been shooting Thunderhead 100s since I started bowhunting in '92. They haven't given me a reason to try anything else.
83% of all statistics are made up.

Slick tricks > Thunderheads > Muzzy
All for about the same price. Go with the tricks.

I shot thunderheads for years on aluminum arrows. I never could get them to fly right when I started shooting the newer graphite arrows. Now I shoot slick tricks and they fly great. I can tell you from experience with both that the ST are a lot tougher than the thunderheads. I’ve never bent a ferrule on the SL and to date haven’t bent a blade either. I did break a blade. They’re easy to sharpen, fly great and leave fantastic blood trails.

I hadn’t shot a deer with em yet (shot a smaller critter or two) but I shoot Snuffers. I like you can run a file over em and have em sharp in just a jiffy.

Spitfires always shoot just like my fieldpoints and leave a huge hole and blood trail. they also shoot good in a 360fps crossbow and never open inflight. for fixed broadheads i like slicktricks

I shot slick tricks for years and switched to rage hypodermic last year. Like them both. I prefer the two blade 125 grain hypodermics if you have a fast bow

180 gr Silverflames from German Kenetics. Best, by 1000%, broadhead on the market today. Come scary sharp and stay that way forever. Easy to touch up and damn near indestructable.
I've spent most of the money I've made in my lifetime on hunting and fishing. The rest I just wasted.....
