I've just got back in to Traditional Bow Hunting with a really nice Custom Long Bow built by Mike Ballinger. It's a 62" bow with a 48 lb draw weight @ 28"s.

I've always wanted to kill a deer with a real Flint Arrowhead, and was wondering if anyone here on the Campfire has hunted with a Flint Arrowhead for deer or hogs, & if so, what size did you use & did you make a successful kill with it???
For hunting with flint, I will be using real wooden arrows custom made out of Cedar by Mike

Also, for right now, I'm using the Byron Ferguson Gold Tip Heavy Hunter Carbon Arrows for hunting with a traditional Broadhead for my first season until I am more proficient with the new Long Bow. And I'll be limiting my shots to 20 yards or less as to not wound anything. Nothing I hate worse than a wounded & lost deer by a hunter who takes a risky shot that's beyond their capability.

So my other question is what type of traditional Broadhead would the the other Traditional Bow Hunters here on the 'Fire reccomend for my Carbon Arrows?

I've got it narrowed down between the Slick Trick Vipers, Muzzie 4-Blade, Magnus Stinger 4-blade. Or the More traditional Zwickey Black Diamond Broadheads. But I'm trying to finalize my decision on Broadheads, so I Can start hunting.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated ! Thanks for your input!
