Why Shoot a Fixed Broadhead?
First off, why should we shoot a traditional, fixed broadhead instead of a new, expandable broadhead? For some people, it boils down to a trust factor. They have used fixed broadheads their whole life. It’s what they know, believe in, and have seen positive results. For others, its a science equation. With less moving parts – and less, literal parts – you’re stacking less tolerances; thus, a higher likelihood of a predictable result: success!
What Makes for a Good Fixed Broadhead?
What makes fixed broadheads good and valuable out in the field has been alluded to, but we’ll be more blunt: less moving parts, more rigidity, more reliability, and more crushing power to go through bone. A fixed broad head has less parts and this ensures stability in flight as well as upon impact. Furthermore, when travel through tissue and bone on a game animal, it has a higher likelihood to crush through – true to its path – instead of ricocheting or moving in a direction you didn’t intend. This all equates to more crushing power (Foot-Lbs of energy) that land; not dissipates.
The Best Fixed Broadheads for Deer Hunting in 2025
#1 – Annihilator Fixed Broadheads
Annihilator has only been around since 2019, but they have been making big waves in the archery industry; collecting awards everywhere they go and turning heads with their creative one-piece design and its lethality on game. The secret sauce behind their broadheads is that you are launching a singular piece of metal at game animals. Its unique geometric shape also offers a lot of positive attributes for quickly and humanely harvesting game:
- Trap air in flight, forcing it into the chest cavity upon impact
- Create a large, non-closing wound channel that reduces drag and resistance
- Induce cavitation, rapidly altering internal pressure and disrupting function
- Trigger a sucking chest wound, accelerating collapse of the thoracic cavity
Their pricing ranges from $64.99 to $94.99 per package (quantities in package vary), and while that might sound expensive to some people, ensuring you always recover your game and are honoring the animals you hunt by having them expire quickly is well worth it.
Their newest offering is the Katana broadhead, which is quite striking in appearance and is definitely something you will want to check out while you contemplate fixed broadhead purchases for 2025.
#2 – Muzzy Fixed Broadheads
Conversely to Annihilator, Muzzy is a legendary brand in archery circles for having been around since 1984 and many of us being raised on their 4-blade, screw-in broadhead. Having assisted countless hunters harvest innumerable deer over the years, their reputation and status is undeniable.
As we mentioned, the 4-blade, screw-in broadhead is what drove Muzzy to daunting heights of fame and popularity for the past 41 years. I have personally been using Muzzy Broadheads for 25+ years and never had a doubt in mind about the efficacy of these broadheads. They flatly perform!
Keeping in step with recent, young competitors like Annihilator Broadheads, Muzzy has come out with their own one-piece broadhead design for all of the desirable aforementioned characteristics we’ve already covered. The Muzzy One Series can be purchased in several grain weights for varying uses and is a phenomenal, more-affordable option in the one-piece, fixed broadhead craze.
#3 – G5 Outdoors Fixed Broadheads
With one of the largest selections of fixed broad heads of any company mentioned here today, G5 Outdoors does a lot of archery gear well with possibly their best items being their fixed broadheads. Their hallmark fixed broadhead is the Montec. They offer this original design in a host of variants for crossbows, compound bows, varying grain weights, and multiple designs. It is both the bread ‘n butter of their portfolio as well as the trophy of their lineup.
The Montec broadhead’s foolproof design combines tough one-piece, all-steel construction with 100% spin-tested accuracy. With no components to assemble or replace, simply screw on and shoot. This simple to use, high-performance broadhead is what every hard-core hunter is looking for.
Final Thoughts
Fixed broadheads are something that have been around for hundreds of years. From the latest and greatest that Annihilator, Muzzy, and G5 have to offer to some of the very first Indian arrowheads chiseled out of rocks, a fixed broadhead has proven is efficacy for as long as archery has existed. The only thing that remains is deciding which one you are going to take hunting with you?
