G5 T3's..experiences...

[systemnt]

My b-in-law was at a different camp this weekend with his college buddies and they all were trying the new T3 broadheads from G5..
3 of them, including the BIL got shots on deer, admittingly not the best shots - one about 5 inches back and low, one high , and a neck shot due to a doe ducking the string...
There was NO blood from any of the shots..
Anyone else using these broadheads? Do they just not create a open wound channel and allow it to close up tight?
I understand bad shots and all but even a shot in the leg will produce some blood.. surely a neck shot and a high shot would let something out..

Please, no comments about the shot placements.. all three of these guys can drive tacks out to 60 yards on any given day.. just circumstances dictated otherwise in these cases.. it happens..

I don't know and I never blame a broadhead for a bad shot but I bought a pack and they just did not seem sharp at all out of the package. Didn't even feel like steel. I decided not to shoot them and traded them away.

Haven't shot the 3 blade version, but have read great reviews, and seen pics of good wounds. I have shot the 2 blade version and it performed flawlessly every time. Location makes a HUGE difference on the amount of blood to be found for any shot. Probably not the BH, but the actual hit location that affected blood loss more than anything else.

Ive never been impressed with any blood trail a G5 head has left.

They are tough but not razor sharp.

I shoot the tekan 2 blade it works flawlessly never had to track more than 50 yards and thats hogs included. BUT it is all shot placement. Fyi 2 hogs i shot were quarterin away and still had pass thru.IMO of course better than those dang rage bh

Try the strikers, they are a pretty good BH and crazy sharp IMO.

Bad shots equal bad blood, with any broadhead, with the exception of Jack Brittingham's son shooting that buck in the dorsal femoral artery...

Strikers leave a trail that stevie wonder could follow.

Razor sharp= G5 CS. I have shot, killed & liked the T3(on hogs!). hoping to try them on a deer Wednesday. I had a TON of blood.

Lots of what if's in your post. I had not heard anything bad about them to be honest.

Apparently you have not tried the Strikers!

I shot a doe and a pig this weekend with the T3. No problems with either. pig fell immediately due to spinal shot, the doe ran maybe 40 yards. Plenty of blood and a nice big exit wound.

x2. 1st complaint I have heard/read. Poor shot placement even w/a 7mag can botch things up. The pig in my avatar was killed w/a T3. You can see a ton of blood there.
