The best choice I know of is the G5 SGH its a fantastic choice for any bolt or arrow.

When younger and in shooting tune, use to hunt rabbits with my 45 auto, yes, I shot more often then hit them with a .22scoped rifle always took them out with a head shot but, with  crossbow, where do we aim or does it matter?

Looks like a good sturdy head. I'll give these a try for groundhogs as well as other small game.

Thanks. :)

If your going to eat them and your using a blunt or small game head, aim for the head or abdomen. I found they bruise the meat something fierce. I use my crappy arrows with a broad head, and wire grab combo so my arrows don't head for parts unknown. A cutting edge does less damage to the meat.
Happy hunting,
