Broadheads noisy?? G5 Montec's
 

WhenI shoot a field tip I don't hear a thing from the arrow but when I shoot my Montec's I can hear it cutting through the air. Not really a whistle per say but more of a psssshhhhh.. lol

They shoot great and I've never noticed it before..

But does anyone else notice this with their broadheads or is this a big no no and why in the world would it be doing it.

Oh, I'm shooitng Axis Obsession 400 with the 100 grain Montec.

are your baldes alined with your fletchings? If not align them and see if that helps, sounds like youre cutting way too much wind.

RE: Broadheads noisy?? G5 Montec's
 

Ya, they are aligned pretty well.. I know some agree and some don't agree with doing this. But I always have true or not..

How do I stop cutting to much wind?

RE: Broadheads noisy?? G5 Montec's
 

try another broadhead and see if you still hear it, whats
the cutting diameter of the heads? how many blades?

RE: Broadheads noisy?? G5 Montec's
 

The montecs are going to make some noise because of the windows in the blades, whether or not it is enough to scare game, couldn't say, but I wouldn't worry about it too much.

If you want to cut down on cutting wind, lay off the beans.:D

[:'(] lol

they are three blade.. They do have the window in them but so did the Muzzy's and I don't remember that noise
with them.. Wanted to try a cut on contact broadhead so I switched.. Switched arrows while I was at it also.

I shoot the same set-up as you and I hear the same noise. My first thought was bitchen! Now you have me a little concerned.:(I notice it with the practice heads as well. Are you shooting Blazers? I just switched to them along with the Montecs.

RE: Broadheads noisy?? G5 Montec's
 

Not yet, I was thinking of switching to the Blazers hoping maybe it would fix the problem but I guess it don't.. :(

I see on their website that someone else asked them the same question but they said that the "old" style Montecs would do that but the new ones should be much quieter.. I DO have the NEW ones as a few people up at the shop asked me.. otherwise I think they are blaming it on the fletchings making noise..

Who Knows..
I might try the Magnus Stingers.. I hear a lot of people raging about them so I'll see what they sound like..

But does anyone else have this problem with the Montecs besides us two? Did anyone find a fix? Or am I just being obsessive..

Take a small file or sandpaper and rough up the inside edges the blades that way the air does not a clean surface to pass over which is what makeing the noise.
