    Broad heads

    Does anyone here buy broad heads from over seas? I looked at bass pro and the broad heads I'm after wouldn't save much, if at all to buy from them. Any other shops I can look at?

    Do broad heads come through easy or do you have to get permits and what not?

    Have a look on eBay Toby, I've had a few from America and saved a bit, even after postage costs.
    Which ones are you after?

    G5 Montecs, That's what my brother uses. I quite like how solid they are, he shot one goat pulled it out. Shot another 2 goats with one shot using the same head. He has never had issues with the deer he shot using them either so might as well use those.

    Oh and I like the look of them haha

    I'm not much of a bow man but what makes them bad? do they just fly bad or smash to bits when they touch things?

    fly bad, very inconsistant. Made of shit metal and are only good for one kill/miss. I dont really rate muzzies either although i did get my first deer with a muzzy.

    Those magnus stingers have the same POI as field points which is a must imo
