G5 Tekan Broadhead or other mechanical??

Anyone use these before? I want to get them for Coyote hunting and maybe Whitetail too. The mechanical might help for shooting 20-50 yards.

I dont know about them but I know a guy that USE to shoot Montecs and has lost a couple of deer and he swears that he hit them good. But i dont know, they look like good broadheads to me. I think any BH will work if you hit them in the right spot.

Anything thing held in buy an O-Ring you have to make sure the blade is not popped out b/4 you shoot.

They actually just redesigned the Tekan II. Made a larger standard cutting diameter (now 1.5"), and addressed a couple concerns they had about the origianl Tekan II. I can't wait to try the new ones! Check out these two links...

I shot a doe with one and got rid of the other ones!! I double lunged her saw her drop and I found 1 drop of blood. They leave a very small hole entrance and exit! Hit them correct they will die if its blood your looking for this is DEFINATLY not your head!!

Any other suggestion for a good mechanical if not the Tekan?

I'm not fan of the Tekan either... I killed a doe with em this year.. liver double lung shot.. Long story short not impressed with the hole which lead to apoor blood trail..
I recommend Spitfire or maybe Grim Reapers..

Hence the redesign. They have definitely addressed every one of the concerns I had with them. They'll be in my quiver this fall!

I heard and seen the Rage ones. Are they really all that?

I have used A LOT of mechanical heads dating back to the old Punchcutters and Bloodtrailers and my favorites to date are Spitfire 3 blades and the Rage 2 blade heads. Both provide ample blood trails and very dead deer.

In the Closed picture it looks like an O-ring. I have never seen 1 in person so if it is not an o-ring forgive me.
