Yes and no. If you tune your bow then yes, if not then no.

Yes, my friend shoots them, they group right with fieldpoints.

I notice that you are asking lots of questions about broadheads...The best thing to do is pick some out and shoot them to see which fly best for you. You can never have too many broadheadsanyway.;)

I'm going to assume your new to bowhunting and dont really know much about tuning broadheads. Then your answer is probably not. But download the easton tuning guide on the easton web site, follow the instructions, and then pick your broadhead.

you know..josh keller.I always tell my wife never assume anything!!!it will get you in trouble.I've probably forgot more about bowhunting than you will ever know.The only thing I'm new to is this site and other peoples opinions. The eastmans tuning guide has no relevance what so ever as to which head I would pick...Did you read the part in my thread that said "IF YOU DONT REALLY KNOW THEN PLEASE DONT ANSWER"[&o]

That wasnt meant to be offensive to you at all. However, most of the users that ask about if a broadhead flies the same as a field point generally are not aware of how to tune a bow to get such a result.

Any of the well made quality heads can be made to fly with your field points. Provided YOU do YOUR part.

Elk I use the Montec's with my setup, and for it I have to say yes they do, shooting at 50yrds I grouped them in a 4" group .That's with my setup .If you need to be sarcastic about this then maybe go elsewhere and ask.

Josh..Sorry to unleash my fury on you..There was no harm intended..When I read that post, I had just got done reading an article in the paper about our beloved mayor (MY BOSS).Anyway I was pissed about it and took it out on you..I apolagize and thanks for your post.

I've been archery hunting for alot of years.and do understand the tunig process..I like to approach a question in the manner of getting honest opinions and peoples ideas.You see I'm always rtying to learn the new tricks of the trade if you will. One can never be too smart. Good luck hunting.

They shot very close to his broadheads. I bought him te practice heads and he shot those exclusively as the season grew near(3 monthes).

Well now, that is pretty vague. Does "well made quality head" mean that it is designed to fly with field points or does it mean that if you hit some thing with it it penetrates well, or does it mean that it is sharp enough to shave a cape buffalo. There are lots of sturdy, sharp, well penetrating broadheads made that DO NOT FLY WELL at high speeds, period. Lot's of hype, most just talk the talk.

This head will walk the walk Northforker,They're not the sharpest head on the market but with a little finishing they can be as sharp as any broadhead ,I really like the way the G5's fly with my setup and I'd definetly recommend them to anyone ,These head's will do the job when it come's to penetration and flyability and also are made very well ,the only thing that I could possibly say against these head's is they could come sharper in the package.

Hey nubo..what is your trick to sharpening the G5 heads..

RE: G5 montec in relation to fieldpoints??
 
I shot these heads during a hog hunt in Texas. I had not shot a fixed broadhead in about 5 yrs and took some advise and tried the Montec G5 100gr. I was very impressed with there performance they did fly (almost) identically to my field points. I say almost because I only had to move my sights to the left about 2 inches (pretty good I thought). The place we hunted allowed only fixed broadheads and the G5's performed outstanding and I harvested 3 nice hogs with them. GOOD LUCK

G5 makes two different size flat sharpening stones and work very well with the broadhead on an arrow and running it across the diamond stone flat. Hope it helps

I use a 600 grit paper and then I'll go to a 1200 grit on a very flat surface it only take's a few minutes per head and they're deadly sharp. But also Montec put's out a stone that I'm going to buy and give it a try as well .I think I'll try the stone and then again I'll go to the 1200 grit paper to finish it off ,I'm not sure that I'll need to go to the paper after the stone but I'll try it anyway's . The Montec stone isn't cheap I seen it at Bass Pro for $30.00 but it's biult for the perfect angle on the head.
