Going with the ole Muzzy
Guys
I have been shooting broadheads for 2 weeks, Muzzy 3 blade, Steel Force, and Montec G5' s......... I really want to use the Steel Force because i like the design but i am having a confidence problem with them...... I like to be able to take a shaft with a broadhead and stand it on its tip and spin it and see it spin like a Gyro.... I cant do that with the Steelforce because of the way they rind the tip to keep it strong....but it is usually not DEAD center so the only way to test them is with an arrow spinner which is ok, BUT I also like to shoot a head before I hunt with it and doing that with a steel force means re-sharpening which I have fond is tough with that head as far as taking it apart.... The Montec is an A+ head as far as accuracy, and alignment... as good as they get but not quite sharp enough for me - SO Im going with the Muzzy 3 blade.... I may try the other on Hogs as Im getting good accuracy from all 3 but being that I am driving 980 miles to deerhunt I want to KNOW I have shot the head arrow combo and hitt the dead center at 20,30,40 yards..... So MUZZY it is for me for now......
No reason for the post - just felt like ventin after really wanting to shoot Steel Force....

I' ll throw in another vote for the muzzy. I shoot a 100 gr. 3 blade and they fly awesome. They also spin like a top (providing the insert has a nice fit). And I love the fact that you can practice with the practice blades, and, without taking the head off, put in the hunting blades and you' re ready to go. Awesome set-up.

I have been shooting muzzy for the past 3 seasons. 90gr 4 blade. The only problem I have encountered is finding replacement blades in local sporting goods stores. In fact I can not even find a muzzy in the store that is less than a 100gr. Lost of 3 blade 100 and 125' s but no 90' s.
For this reason I am going to switch to 3 blade 100' s for next season.

Earlier I shot a doe with a Montec G5 and it did a good job, but I' m starting to believe they are a pain to keep sharp. They are super accurate though. Well tonight I shot another doe with my old standby 3 bladed Muzzy 125 grain. It was a complete pass through at 40 yards. They' re still a great head.

RE: Going with the ole Muzzy
Been shooting Muzzys a long time now and they are the best out there in my book. The only test I need is seeing them group great in the back yard and seeing what they do to a deer. I' ve seen some of these test where they shoot into carpet, plywood, barrels,ect....The real test is a double lung shot on a deer.
