So I have the Killer Instinct Lethal 405 Crossbow, what would you recommend for a broad head for deer.
They recommend for the bow a 100 grain head and my sons bait pile is 15 yards.

I am using 125 gr slick tricks broadheads with my crossbow..... Slick tricks seem to work well if I do my part
This one??

As long they fly true those are more than adequate for deer. Deer are thin skinned and light boned and as long as the crossbow shoots accurate they are easy to kill.Quote:

Not for any particular reason other than they have always worked and have literally put many 1000s of pounds of venison in the freezer along with the odd bear. The ones you posted look fine though and like i said if they are accurate they will work.
Your right Species, Deer have been killed with sharpened stones tied to a stick from 32 lb recurve bows long before we colonized this country :)Quote:

Accuracy and shot placement are the keys...always practice shooting from your treestand before you go hunting, cuts down on the surprise of missing a deer a 20 yrds when it counts. :)
I have been using the Excalibur 100 gr mechanicals for the last 3 years in my crossbow, and they work great on deer - furthest one ran was only 25-30 yards.
I've used both the bolt cutters and montecs. I am partial to the 125gr though.
I am going to try the 150 grain bolt cutters this fall, if I don't get the results I will switch to the Excalibur 150 grain mechanical trailblazers
I use 100gr bolt cutters use to use those replaceable fix blade look a lot like bolt cutters can’t remember what they where called take them off bolt they fall apart
