They say replaceable steel blades, not stainless steel like the Montecs. Guess you have to give up something to gain another.

It has been in the mix a while...Reminds me of the Wac'em broadhead.

Broadhead looks great, but I wonder how well it did in tests.

I used the G5 Montec with mostly success over the past 2 seasons. But I am upset about the sharpening process of the montec. It looks as though G5 solved the problem, but it may be too late for me.

Very good looking head.......should be much sharper than the Montec.
I heard some grumblings about G5 and the WacEm' heads having some sort of patent licensing issue between the 2 companies which could account for the obvious physical similarities.

I will probably have 3 different heads in my quiver this season , Slick Tricks (Mag), Rocky Mt. Turbos, and this one.........The main head will probably depend upon which one flies the best out of a well tuned bow doing about 315fps. [:-]

yeah, they are very similar to wac'em broadheads. I'd like to see how they perform in tests. We'll see I guess.
