Cole14bowhunting Posted March 12, 2012 Report Share Posted March 12, 2012 wondering about g5 I suggest swhackers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swohiodave Posted March 12, 2012 Report Share Posted March 12, 2012 They seem to work well. Personally, i use thunderheads. You will get many answers. I suggest you try them and see what shoots best on your setup. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cowboy778 Posted March 12, 2012 Report Share Posted March 12, 2012 I like G5 Products I use the Montecs I love them... I use the preseason to practice with and then put them on and tune right before I head out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whitetailfreak55 Posted March 12, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 12, 2012 Ive heard the montecs are pretty good. I have been using grim reapers but after losing a nice deer last year I'm looking at new ones. Thank you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbHunterNY Posted March 12, 2012 Report Share Posted March 12, 2012 they work fine... can't use them here in my home state of NY though, as they are considered a "barbed" head by design and therefore illegal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shawn8157 Posted March 12, 2012 Report Share Posted March 12, 2012 My son uses g5 montecs and I've been very pleased on how they have done. He's 9 and only shooting 40lbs but had a complete pass through on one and hit front shoulder on the other, both ended in kills and both heads were still in great shape.

Thanks everybody that helps out a lot think I'll go with the montecs because I've been wanting to go hog hunting and I've heard expandables aren't very good with hogs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bowhunter97 Posted March 13, 2012 Report Share Posted March 13, 2012 Hey hey hey dont jump to a conclusion right away. lol But seriously look at muzzys and see what works best for you setup. I love my muzzy 4 blades. I have gotten pass throughs on hogs with them. And just to throw this in there on an acual box of muzzys i read "muzzy bad through the bone" Thats where i got my sig from.

whitetailfreak55 Posted March 13, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 13, 2012 Ya I've heard my buddy has used muzzys before I might try them not really sold on them yet LOL but have heard that they're good and he swears by them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamesmcw86 Posted March 13, 2012 Report Share Posted March 13, 2012 I've used the g5 t3 for the past 2 seasons. I've shot 3 deer, all with complete pass throughs. Very sturdy and I've been able to re-use. I did however lose one off the deer (big buck). More to do with shot placement, but the blood trail started good. I have considered the tekan or rage because I like the cut on contact. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whitetailfreak55 Posted March 13, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 13, 2012 I used a rage and the practice heads shot perfect into the target but when I went to put them on my arrow while hunting the blades would fall out like they were deployed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stinger-Hunter Posted March 13, 2012 Report Share Posted March 13, 2012 I use Muzzies and I've used them all (almost). I'll never go back to any other brand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cole14bowhunting Posted March 13, 2012 Report Share Posted March 13, 2012 wondering about g5 Yes I used rage one time to kill a coyote and I had two shoot it two other times do it would die thats why I switched and plus if I was shooting them at a broadhead target it would bend the blades Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trevor Posted March 14, 2012 Report Share Posted March 14, 2012 I use slick trick 4 blade broad heads. They fly straight like a field point, no need to re-tune.My brother in-law had a rage break off a blade on the rib cage and cut himself when field dressing.Was not a fun time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bowhunter97 Posted March 14, 2012 Report Share Posted March 14, 2012 my whole family and our life long friends family swears by muzzy. They are great like i said and u can reuse them too. If you could get your hand on one of each then that would be perfect. then shoot both and see which you like better and let us know what ends up the winner by ur choice.

whitetailfreak55 Posted March 14, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 14, 2012 Sounds good I will thanks for the help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisSeb53 Posted March 17, 2012 Report Share Posted March 17, 2012 Used the G5 Tekkan 3 last year with mixed results. The first kill was my biggest buck to date at 50 yards with a complete pass through. He did the ol' wobble and went down within sight. The second shot was on a doe and I hit the dreaded shoulder blade. Found my arrow with the broadhead snapped at the insert and blood about five inches up the shaft. Never did find the doe. I'm thinking I am going to switch to fixed blades this year. I have used Muzzy in the past and they are TOUGH. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
