The Delta broadhead has the widest cutting diameter of any Zwickey broadhead. For those needing a dependable and hard-hitting broadhead that leaves easy-to-follow, short blood trails. The Delta 2-blade broadhead is what you need in your quiver. Special high-carbon Steel construction allows you to get the edges "hair popping sharp" and the triple-thick tip with special heat treating resists curling and blows through bone. The straight edge will have a slightly better penetration advantage over convex edges. No vents for deadly quiet arrow flight. Designed to fit all carbon and aluminum arrows as they have an industry standard 8-32 thread. This is the same thread used by all arrow inserts (except Easton Deep Six). Ferrule is 11/32". Measures 2-9/16" long x 1-3/8" cutting diameter. Weighs 170 grains. Sold by the 3-pack only. ...read more

Bought to set up my Easton XX75 camo hunters 2213 's for hunting with my 45# Samick Sage recurve. All nine (3 pks) weighed exactly 173 grains and spun perfectly true. 4 light strokes per edge with a 6" mill file followed with leather stropping and they were extremely sharp.
Great Broadhead
Well made. Super sharp. I plan on deer hunting with these this fall.
Flies true , scalpel sharp , great wound channel
i have used these primarily with trad bows , and live up to the rough and tough nature they are exposed too . as far as , the sharpening , they require a file initially to even out out the edges and put a chisel point on them . then use a stone to finish it to a razor sharpness . if the flight isn't to your liking , try turning the broadhead a quarter turn at a time till you achieve… read more desired flight .
Not sharp
I just opened my new heads and I wasn't impressed with the sharpening. There are roled edges from the VERY rough grind. I expected to have to hone them to get them to be hunt ready but wasn't expecting to have to regrind every head then hone them. A couple of them may as well be a single bevel they way they are poorly ground. I'm not looking forward to sharpening them.... If you… read more plan on getting heads you can take out of the package and hunt with, these are far from that.
Yes they awesome
Hunting Zwickey products are awesome.
Flies Straight but Sharpenings a chore
I love the product and decided to buy it before I even saw one in real life, the reviews were spectacular, however I try to sharpen it and it took sooo long and it's still not sharp, it'd be nice to have a pre-sharpened option for 10$ more so I wouldn't have to spend hours and hours, I'll probably end up having my brother sharpen them because I don't have a lot of time with work… read more and school
Have shot this broadhead 30 yrs
I've shot these on all shaft material options & don't see myself switching to anything else
Mixed feelings
Love Zwickey Broadheads, but the quality of the cutting edge and the balance with the inserts has been bad on the last few packs that I've bought. Spent more time than I should have to correcting the problem.
Eh.......
Heard alot of good things about theses, however maybe mine is defective. The glue that bonds the inner aluminum insert to the broad head on two of mine came apart. One, in Zwickeys defense, came apart after the arrow missed its target and slammed into a brick wall. Cant complain right? The second however simply came apart while removing it from a target. Hadnt really applied alot… read more of force pulling it out. I believe the culprit to be a weak glue joint. The glue appeared to be C/A glue which is common, however, it can go bad with heat and age (pre-use that is) Only my thoughts. Otherwise these tips flew very well, consistent point of aim/point of impact with field tips which was very nice.
Tough Broadhead
Zwickey been around since 1938 for a reason. Because they work!! I shot numerous broadheads over the years and nothing matches up to Zwickey!! I shot a 140 class whitetail November 7, 2015 that field dressed out at 239lbs here in southern Iowa. He dropped within 30 yards! Remarkable broadhead for the money.
We do not have a wire loop, we have tested it it with just tying it behind the ferrule of the broadhead
I can not really answer that question. I have seen broadheads that will fly like darts out of one bow and cork screw out of another. I would use field points to play with the weight that you need for your arrows and then look for a broadhead of a similar weight.
Easton has a pretty nifty kinetic energy guide on their website that will let you know if you are generating enough energy for the game you plan to hunt...
Try doing a search about bare shaft tuning your arrows. That will help you determine the right weight. I bought the field point trial kit from 3 rivers that had several weight points. The 175 grain shot like darts, which led me to these broadheads in a 170 grain. BTW, Im also shooting a 55# Grizzly, but with Beaman 340 grain Bowhunters.
you may have to get weight tubes. And I mean the HEAVY tubes or get the adjustable gold tip brass weight system. But yeah 55lbs and a beefed up carbon should work well on this 170gr broadhead. Bear Grizzly's are sweet arent they!
The Zwickey Delta broadheads would be a good fit for you, but you may need a stiffer spine if they are not the same weight as you are shooting now. The extra weight on the point of the arrow will make it shoot stiffer and if you are not normally in the 150-170 range now, it will require some retuning of your bow to get them to fly perfect.
These will be 5-10 grains heavy as well so 175 grain area.
The screw in style will have the adapter already glued in so all you have to do is screw them into your arrow.
They come fully assembled (as long as your purchasing the screw in model - should be apparent from different weight). Moderately sharp(definitely could use some cleaning up/honing).
The Zwickey Delta broadheads that I purchased came with the screw-in inserts already installed. Dwayne Ordner Senior Project Manager 2749 Chaparral Road Killeen, Texas 76542
No, ready to go Tom W. Dorrell Jr. MD.
Yes they will fit.

Yes you can use the Zwickey broadheads with the Easton Axis.
Yes they will screw into the Easton Axis arrows.
Weighs 170 grains. Sold by the 3-pack only.
Those come in 170 grain and are sold by the 3 pack.
It came with 3 broad-heads. It's either 165 or 175 gr, but to be honest if you're shooting trad the surface area of it adds more variability than the weight. It acts like a wing or fin and changes how the head of the arrow deflects as it flys off axis (slightly sideways). On top of that, zwickeys tend to be 5-10gr over their labeled weight In my limited experience. I've hunted with eskilites for a few years, have a dozen or so of those. Lodged one in a whitetails shoulder blade who never stopped running. Least not on my property. Haven't hunted with the deltas, but they should provide wide cutting dia. Maybe less penetration? Just speculation.
It will all depend on the tuning of the arrows. There is no set grain weight that is needed for certain arrows or bows. You will want to use the point weight that gives you the best arrow flight. I recommend getting a field point test kit before purchasing any broadheads. The test kit will allow you to try several different weight points with each arrow and find the weight that you will need. Then you can narrow your search to broadheads that fall into that weight range.
a 2 blade zwickey eskimo or similar...
The cutting diameter is 1 3/8".
