Last year i used a striker and it flew good, i only had one thought because my firend had an extra from the past year so i figured why not? and i shot at a doe opening weekend and missed over her back and found it in a tree and it apeared to be fine. then i decided to just use it as a squirrel head and it worked fine for that until i lost it.
It seemed like a pretty good little broadhead.

G5 Strikers are 3 blades of Awesomeness.

They are the sharpest, most accurate(in accordance to field tips) fixed blade I have ever used.

I use the Striker and I love it. I have shot two does and a massive tree trunk with the same one and it is still tough as nails and sharp as heck.

I shoot Montecs and love them.

They fly just like my field tips, and I do not notice the "noise" that others always talk about. Some say they are not sharp out of the package, but last year, I shot 2 does with the same head, and shot another this year with a new one. To me they are all I need. Extremly tough and accurate.

I have heard alot of great things about the Strikers too.

I have not tried either, but they both look super. The Montecs looks awesome, but I'm just scared of a single piece, that either "flies right, or doesn't. I need to try them, though.

I switched from Muzzys (no particular reason, since they were great) to Montecs last year. They fly perfectly for me and I've got both deer and antelope with them. Pretty hard to beat, is my opinion. Hopefully I'll receive a package of Strikers I won on another site in time for this year yet and I'll be able to try them as well.
