Hi folks. Im new to crossbow hunting and was wondering what broadhead you shoot with your crossbow? I bought a Horton Team Realtree crossbow and love it so far. I sighted it in using Horton Aluminum arrows and 150 grain field tips. All advice is appreciated.

I shoot 100 gr Muzzy MX-3 out of my Barnett Revolution. Never had an arrow that didn't pass thru out to 35 yds. That's the longest shot I've had to make. Granted, all my shots have been heart/lung shots and never hit shoulder bone. Furthest an animal has run is approx. 35 yds.

Spitfire 125grain is a hard broadhead to beat. Field point accurate and makes a nasty hole with great bloodtrails.

I shoot 125 grain NAP Thunderheads with my Parker Enforcer. I shot a 350lb+ oryx with it the week before last. Shot at 40 yards and she went maybe 10 steps before falling - those Thunderheads are BEASTS!!
