I’ve got my Easton axis 5mm arrows set up with 125 grain field tips right now to start paper tuning. I’m trying to figure out which way to go with broadheads and have settled on some flavor of iron wills. My question is, should I just go with a 125 grain iron will? Or should I go with a 100 grain head with a 25 grain impact collar? Are the impact collars necessary to prevent arrow damage?

I shoot the Easton axis and 125 grain G5 strikers. I have the half out inserts at 75 grains. Don't recommend half out inserts, they bend easy. Next time I will go with 50 grain inserts and 25 grain collar. This is what my wife is shooting. I did just make her up some cheaper SPT axis arrows with full 75 grain insert for target and pigs.

Ive been gifted a slew of axis shafts split all as previously described. Not split by me. I seem to channel an archery pack rat that wont leave my garage.
This discussion has helped make my mind that HIT and splitting shafts aint my bag. Collared protects the ends.
MrCowboy, I killed my first archery buck shooting left handed from a 30yo right handed bow picked up a month before killing with it. You got this. No problem.
Good skilling. I look forward to the LDPs.
