Jeff, I doubt you remember, but last year, I was at your house and I showed you a G5 Striker, and how amazingly sharp it was. I love them, I did crack a blade on Doe # 3 but also blew right through both of her shoulders with a 350grn arrow. They fly perfect out of the box.... I don't plan on changing anytime soon. If you wanna try one before the year is over... Let me know, I wont be using more than 1 the rest of the year. I don't think you would be disapointed.
