This year I switched to the g5 strikers. It's a fixed blade...not sure if it is replaceable though.

These are the heads I also use. They are replaceable razor fixed heads.

Just curious, what is your reason for deciding to switch from fixed to mechanical? Is it the advertising? Do you think they will outperform? Just wondering why a lifelong user of replaceable fixed heads is now deciding to switch.

I have used Sonics in 07 and 08 and was extremely impressed w/ the flight, penetration and blood trails. I was gonna save some $ this year, and use some unused muzzys from a few seasons ago, but I found a dozen sonic 125s in the bargain bin at my proshop ,for 36$!So I scooped em up. Im surprised how few people shoot these heads, theyre awesome!

I love g5s. They are fixed, but the great thing, the edges are oriented to where all you have to do to sharpen them is lay them flat on a stone and rub. Great head.
