Squirrelhunter91 Posted June 1, 2008 Report Share Posted June 1, 2008 I recently purchased some G5 strikers from need2hunt and man do I love these broadheads. First off, they're scary sharp right out of the package and they really do fly like field points. I've tried alot of different heads out of my DXT and couldn't get anything to fly right without having to adjust the nocking point. I tried Muzzy 3 blades, Slick Tricks, Montec and Rage. Nothing would fly the way it should. First shot I took with the Strikers at 20 yards, whammo! Right in the dot. I think I've found the head I'm gonna stick with for a while. =] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WVreddot870 Posted June 2, 2008 Report Share Posted June 2, 2008 G5 My boy and I shot 4 gobblers this spring with the Mag Striker. G5 1st advertised them as a short range head. We did a little tuning and had perfect flight to 50 yds----they leave a huge hole in a turkey!!!!!!!! If you like the regular strikers try the Mag's----you will not be dissapointed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdvantageTimberLou Posted June 3, 2008 Report Share Posted June 3, 2008 They are one of the best out there. Some will scream Muzzy or Slick Tricks but out of my set-ups, with no adjustments my Strikers fly JUST LIKE my fieldtips and no adjustments needed. No tweaking the sight or right to make them fly dead on, they just shoot great and like a fieldtip! And indeed Joe they are scary sharp! Awesome heads for sure, you picked a great broadhead Joe!

hutchies Posted June 4, 2008 Report Share Posted June 4, 2008 Are you guys basing this on flight characteristics or actual field tests? I and a buddy each got 3 of these heads. I slammed a small buck right behind the should......shot looked great. Blood trail was speckles for well over 200 yards. Never found him. Shot a doe with the striker. Found arrow after 40 yards and practically no blood. Blades were trashed. Also no luck in recovering that deer. Tried them on small game...........Shot a squirrell with them and the edges of the blades again were trashed(no blade retention at all and the blades were wavey)...............................That was my last straw. They are on my dillo arrows now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest bowhunter56 Posted June 4, 2008 Report Share Posted June 4, 2008 I actually use to use two sights on my bow, one for field points, then i would have one for hunting and shooting broadheads, then i tried the stryker,,and that all ended..
