G5 MEGAMEAT Test

A buddy of mine is using these as his primary deer roaches this year… he hasn’t stuck anything other than a broad head target with them yet… but he’s claiming they fly perfectly true to his field points and are penetrating deeper than the rage mechanicals he was using previously… he’s pretty sold on them for now
 
Like the testing showed: Light is excellent. Blades are extremely sharp. Opening is excellent. Cut size is excellent. All that helped them get a fairly high score and will take down a lot of animals.

Penetration is decent, largely boosted by the blades tending to close when they hit softer spots.

Blade durability is weak; one is the weakest of any mech on the market. With most hits on an animal, that won’t be an issue. With some, it will be a issue.

How all that affects anyone’s choice to use this head or not is up to them and their own personal needs/desires for what they want a broadhead to do.

I realize how hard the bug has bit. I’m on the cusp of safari #2 and I’m looking to plan #3 with my 11 year old a year from now while looking at my work schedule for overtime and computing the math of how many shifts are needed….

I'd like to get some too.

My wife (a biologist, like me) had to have a melanoma removed from her arm last fall.

Hallo Marius- do you have possibilities for stags in September during the roar? Where are your hunting areas in Romania?

I'm about ready to pull the trigger on another rifle but would love to see your rifle first, any way you could forward a pic or two?
Thanks,
