Why the single bevel? Almost every trad guy I know who kills lots of critters has moved to WIDE 2 blades, or 3 blades, or 4 blades. More blood on the ground, and it really doesn't effect penetration nearly as much as the Ashby studies make it sound. Maybe if you're shooting rhinos.
I have it on good info that DRT has killed several pigs with a rage hypo out of his recurve. Long story, short... a well tuned arrow will jam a 3 or 4 blade through a whitetail no problem.
Personally I migrate back and forth between Iron Will Wides, and VPA 3 blades on my trad bows, with an occasional magnus 4 blade stinger or black hornet in the quiver, just to mix things up.

To hear him and ranch fairy tell it if you don't use a heavy two blade the arrow is gonna bounce off the hide of anything larger than a jackrabbit.
Ive shot thru too many animals with a 3 blade over the top expandable to buy into this b.s.

But These will be spin on 125 grain on gold tip traditionals 500 spine. Prefer a solid single bevel. Bow is a black river archery hybrid 47 pounds at 28”. Actually got it here on TBH. Thanks good luck to you and everyone else as well!
Choose from the largest selection of Fixed Blade Broadheads at Lancaster Archery Supply. Modern Aerodynamic Fixed Blade Broadheads fly accurately from a tuned bow and are the ultimate in giving complete penetration with deadly results on any big game animal.

I have used Wensel Woodsmans 3-blades for years with trad and compound. Some find the 3-blade are easier to sharpen. You do not need to worry about keeping the sharpening angle consistent, just two blades flat to the stone or file. Tune your arrows properly and get some weight up front and they will fly great.
