I don't "know" it flies better Swampcollie..I said on average it did tonight. So if I shot it 5 times at 50 yards (which is the distance I'm claiming any amount of difference in the results) and it hit 1.25 inches closer to center bull..does that kill a deer faster???
Do I disregard 2 years of shooting MX-4's and being successful killing deer with them, all based on 5 shots??? Maybe I concentrated better when I knew I was shooting that head? Who knows it needs the test of time..Maybe ultimately down the road I switch. If so the free trial did what it was supposed too!
But For $10 actually closer to $16 I'd need to see a bigger difference than I saw last night. I know your question was fuel for thought..and believe me when I say..I was impressed with the G5 Striker broadhead! (plus I used the bandaid..after the blades fell out and I had to reset them...suckers are sharp!) I'll keep shooting it and if the trend continues I'll own some!
And see thats another great consideration, that you have had good success with those MX-4s... so in contrast you could almost offer why would I change what I KNOW works for something that could POSSIBLY fly better at 50 yards... which is a heck of a poke for a whitetail deer.
