Best Broadhead for Elk?

Post by BackPackerTX » Wed Sep 07, 2011 2:31 am

Hey Guys new to the site. Going on my third and fourth elk hunt next week. Our TX whitetails are less than 10" thick through the slats so I typically shoot large expandables for the excellent bloodtrail. I was wondering what most of you guys are shooting as far as broadheads go for elk and big muleys. I was told to stick with a fixed blade. I was wanting to know if a 1" diameter is two small and if anyone has tryed Rocket Ultimate Steels. Any information would be appreciated.BackPackerTX

Any good Cut On Contact out there will do the job...Heck a few Mech's out there I'd have no worries about shooting...Biggest thing, is one you shoot well and can control to put it in "the spot"...
