Jay- For the record I didn't give you a -1.. I never have for someone expressing their opinion and I never will.

2nd, I think you might be surprised at the specs of the blade sizes. Pay close attention to the large blade. If you look at how far beyond the width of the shaft the blade protrudes, you will notice the 2 blades seem to be raised above the level of the shaft about the same amount. It's somewhat of an optical illusion because the two parallel blades are coming up out towards us in the picture.

3rd, I'm not assuming these broadheads are going to outperform every other broadhead known to man, but if you calculate the linear measurement of blade surface as it would create a wound (blade measurement perpendicular to arrow flight), the extra 2 blades would provide more cut surfaces to bleed from. Yes the diameter of the cut wound is important, but the diameter is simply linear measurement of each blade added to the diameter of the center puncturing tip. If you add blades, you get more cut surface. In traditional broadheads, the only way to add cutting surface is to increase the overall diameter because all blades are affixed to a center axis. The only problem is the larger the diameter, the more space an arrow takes up, and the more cumbersome the arrow becomes. Adding blade surface inside the overall diameter of a broadhead seems to make perfect sense to me. Just my two cents.

Thanks for the info! I have one on the way. Can't wait to try it.

Mine's on the way. I think it's a decent marketing ploy. And if the broadhead performs well, it's a damn fine marketing ploy. I'm happy to take advantage.

Jay, no one is holding an F-15 to your head to order these.

Well, there are always those that will buy the latest and greatest gadget thinking this will give them the edge. I think I'll come up a new broadhead that has blades that rotate once fired and cuts thru game like a drill bit. I'll call em the AH-64D (Apache Longbow).

I cant see this broadhead surviveing any more than one shot thru a deer, unless it missed all the bones and ribs.I am also sticking with my muzzy three blades.

Personally, I think G5 designed these blades just to prove that they can make a very complex blade with MIM technology. I think it is unnecessary and an Edsel-like mistake. Most bow hunters don't want complex - they want something that works. How do you sharpen these things? Are they giving them away free because they are not selling?

Took G5 quite a bit of time to respond to hunters that wanted their blades super sharp - the originals just weren't (I got a lame excuse when I contacted them way back when). I admire the technology but they got the material wrong. Perhaps another lesson to bank on.

That thing looks to Rube Goldberg for me. This old timer loves Rage 2 blade mechanical heads and sticking with them 'til something better comes along.

I just ordered mine. If I get them I will test them on groundhogs or other small game before trusting them to my deer hunting.

buckhunter I’m pretty sure you get just (1) broadhead to test out not three unfortunately, have to be careful shooting at those groundhogs. But I agree with you about the mailing list....

To those of you who have ordered (especially the fixed blade) let us know how durable the blades seem. I know with my luck I would damage my broadhead target shooting before I even got a chance to try it on a deer or if I did hit a deer, is the broadhead a one and done break apart job or is there a good chance it would hold up to be used a 2nd time?

Thanks for the info. Ordered mine up this afternoon and am interested to see how it works...guess I won't really know until I shoot a deer. But I'm optimistic and have never had expandable blades so this is a great opportunity to try one out. Thanks

Just got mine today. was really loud flying through the air
