What is the best broadhead for deer hunting?  I know this is like
asking someone to explain their choice between the various brands of
pickup trucks but I am curious.

For background, I shoot a Martin Prowler set to 60 pounds draw with
50% letoff.  My arrows are Easton XX75 2117's.  I may move up to
65-70 pounds and 2219 arrows.  I am currently thinking about a 125
grain head but am willing to change...

Also, what sort of heads are used for other game such as rabbit,
quail, turkey, and squirrel?

thanks
