Slick trick magnums.   4 blade 1 1/8 diameter  big hole, fly straight.
Waiting for the Savoras to come out.   
Old enough to know better.
Young enough to go for it.

G5 Striker 100 gr. 

That law has always been the same.  There was no rule change regarding what broadheads we can use.  Also be careful there are two types of Exodus broadheads.  One is legal the other doesn't meet the rule requirements.

"It is unlawful to hunt big game animals with a broadhead blade unless the broadhead is unbarbed and completely closed at the back end of the blade or
blades by a smooth, unbroken surface starting at maximum blade width and forming a smooth line toward the feather end of the shaft and such line does not
angle toward the point."

I'd say both those heads are questionable.  I'm not sure either would be legal.

Why do you say that?

The open gap between the bottom of the blade and the arrow shaft could be called a barb.

Also the back side of the blade appears to angle slightly toward the tip of the arrow instead of the feather end of the arrow, if that is the case then it would be illegal according to the rules.
