Default G5 Striker users...need a simple question answered.

Had to pick up these, after realizing my Rocky Mtn. Advantage BH's are no longer in production. Replacement blades are also not available.

So, I picked these up as a comfortable "middle of the road" for fixed-blade BH's.

They come with a washer on the BH in the package. Also, there is a seperate washer in eachBH compartment in the package. There's no directions as to their use on the package. I'm assuming this is a backup washer for use when the other is broken, or replacement blades are used. I wouldn't think that washer also goes on the BH on top of the one already there.

I'd just like to clear that up. Am I correct in this?

I shoot the striker and made the same assumtion you have. It's one heck of a broadhead as tough as they get. Enjoy!

It's just extra washers.

Actually you can use the extras to tune your broadhead with your vanes.

I'm with Mo on that one. If you need to back them off just a hair, use the extra washers. I love this broadhead. Outshot the slicks and naps for me. I'm heading to Kansas and there going to be on my arrows.

I shoot these also, killed four deer this year with them already.. Very Very sharp, but the blades seem to be a little week to me.. I replace them everytime I shoot a deer with the arrow.. Don't even attempt to resharpen.
