Ive been a Thunderhead junkie, but am considering switching to Montec G5 or NAP HelllRazor. I also like the concept of the Crimson Talon xt just trying to figure out if its legal-i cant find a good pic of them to tell.

Looked at their site? Thought they had a big pic on there..........
I am wondering if they will really provide good penetration though. The force of the spin imparted by the blades will be almost immediatley lost on impact and without the force or drive to continue the spin, I do not see how they will drive into the animal too far. I amy be wrong completely, but I do not understand the science too well either.

Better match your fletching twist to the Crimson Talon. They will screw right off your arrow if you don't have them super tight and use a RH helical. Personally I tried them only into targets and they constantly broke and were a POS IMO. I know one person who killed a couple deer with them. Never had full penatration let alone a pass through but deer died. Don't buy into the hype and advertising go with a traditional design.

For the one piece broadheads like Montec G5, are you guys practicing with one set and then changing to a brand new set for hunting? Would replaceable blades like the Montec Strikers be easier and cheaper to shoot up for practice, then just put new blades on? Haven't bought any broadheads yet for my new first bow and only been using field points so far, so still trying to decide on first set of broadheads.

I love the montec by G5 outdoors. Best broadhead I have used hands down! I personally, buy a 3 pack of the "real blades" for target practice, not the "pre-season blades" they offer for target shooting. This being because I wasnt to practice exactly with what I will be hunting with. Then I will buy a dozen or so broadheads for hunting and devote the one 3 pack to target shooting.

Just bought a pack of Wac 'Em 100gr Triton broadheads. Shot them into my block target at 20 yards and they hit right with my feild points, but at 30, they hit high? After about 5 shots, one of the blades broke for no apparent reason
Spend $30 for heads only to have one blade break within minutes? I have checked and rechecked, but do not see anythng in the target or hay bale behind it that would have caused this........
Should have got the Tricks or Montecs...........
