I am shooting a Hoyt Vantage Pro, slinging 2315s with 125gr heads, weighing 560grs, 241 fps, for a ke of 72. I have been all over the place trying to decide and here are the final contenders taking some advice from more experienced folks.

Snuffer
Thunderhead
Razor trick
Phathead
Landshark

Which would you choose?

Have take deer with all except phathead. All good proven heads though.

think the easiest to tune are thunderhead and razor tricks.

The Hoyt vantage pro is a great stable smooth Quiet bow. Are you shooting fingers or release?

yea, at 100 gr. Faster increases pass-throughs (on deer and elk).

Of those you list, I would go
Snuffer, Phathead, Landshark, Thunderhead, Razor trick in that order.
