You probably don't need an expensive broadhead to kill a deer. But the cost of broadheads is so small compared to the overall cost of hunting, why worry about it? After spending thousands of dollars each year on land, seed, fertilizer, clothing, vehicles, gas, guns/bows/optics, stands, etc.; I'm not going to base my broadhead selection on price. So what if you save $5 per broadhead, and shoot 6 of them a year? That's a whopping $30. That's two bags of fertilizer.
