Bought a used PSE Coyote 45lb just to have a bow to shoot again. Thought was to use it only for target shooting in the yard and pest control or take while scouting and setting up stands. However, after shooting it a couple of times I was kind of impressed with how fast the bow seems to shoot full length 2117 Eastons and a 125grain Judo. So now I'm thinking I make take it for a deer hunt. I haven't bow hunted in years due to selling my MQ1 cause my left shoulder isn't what it used to be.
So now to the question...what's your blade of choice for a lite-weight bow? There's so many out there now! I want something that is known to fly well of course but also resharpenable. Tough. 2 or 3 blade? etc....

I was referring to "sharpen yourself" type heads. But those new ViperTricks are looking like some serious penetration !

45 lbs will easily shoot a 2018 (or 2117) completely thru the chest of a big whitetail buck. i use either zwickey or magnus (2 blade) for deer and elk out of recurves and longbows. imo, you will have fewer issues regarding penetration with a cut on contact broadhead. others may differ, but have no hesitation taking that 45lbs for deer once you get your shooting where it needs to be. good luck this season.

I really like the 100gr Shuttle T-Locks, they fly the same as my 100gr field points.
