    Not sure - thinking 100 or 125 gr. What about these:

    The Strikers are excellent.
    Absolutely razor sharp out of the box.
    Match the weight of the broad heads to the weight of his field tips and check that they fly true on a target first before hunting.
    Broad heads will often fly differently and may need to be tuned to the same point of impact by moving the arrow rest slightly.

    Thanks Matt - are broad heads ok to shoot into targets. We have a home made target made from plastic bags etc, compressed into a cube, works great for field tips. cheers

    There are commercial targets that are suitable for broad heads but they do ruin them pretty quickly.
    I have shot a target similar to your home made one with broad heads and they can be a little tricky to extract but should be fine for the amount of arrows required to make sure your field tips have the same point of impact as the broad heads.
