I shoot a few different 100gr mech 3-blade heads. I still have some Scorpion XP and Rage to shoot up before I move to fixed. This season I'll be using slick tricks as well.

I am in the minority but shoot 125gr. and could use heavier for kicks ..
but have tons of 125s.... I do have one set of 100gr. and it is a mechanical ... for my desert stryker for really high speed and longer range for jacking with predators and whitetails... at a little longer range than what I am using the phoenix for ..

I shoot an Exomax and I use 125 Striker magnums with the 25 grain extender. They penetrate exceptionally well and are very accurate. The 1&1/2" cut is deadly.
