I would like to see the following:

FIXED BLADE
--Shuttle Terminals (what I currently use and like)
--Montec CS (ability to get sharp compared to original)
MECHANICAL
--2-blade Rage (are they up to the hype)
--G5 tekan (heard some not so good things on them)
--Schwacker (spelling?) seems like a dumb name, but are they good?

Slick Trick Magnum 100gr.

Have worked well for me. Don't have experience with anything different. They tuned great in my bow. Guess I'm looking for a test that doesn't include shooting into a 100 gallon steel drum. I don't understand way that is significant. Real hunting situations would be great.

X4 on the Slick tricks to be added to your test. It is also my opinion and an opinion only, but I believe a fair amount of hunters use a mechanical head because they dont have a properly tuned bow resulting in poor Fixed BH flight. Would you be able to add a paragraph or two on the importance of properly tuning your bow and BH's.

I also would like to see some of the two blade fixed heads, and there characteristics of arrow flight out of some of todays faster bow setups

Another vote G5 Montec CS.
I would also like to see the Magnus Buzzcut 4-blade as it looks like the best option for my wife and others with low poundage draws on elk and larger animals.

Last year I used the G5 Striker and was impressed with a quick, clean kill. But, I would still like to see how they stack up. Rage in the cage is all the RAGE lately, so let's see how they stack up as well.

Thanks to everyone for the feedback. Looks like my test list is aligning with what you guys want to see but I did add a couple more heads that weren't on my list from reading the posts on here.
