G5 T3 concerns -

swamprabbit · 08-13-2011, 04:29 PM

I have 5 t3's. I have been told that they will open in flight. I am shooting at 285fps. With a 410grain arrow. Any thoughts?

I don't think you'd have an issue. But I don't speak from first hand experiance.

I hope they don't. What is your broadhead of choice?

My quiver is stuffed with Grim Reapers and G5 Strikers right now. I have several NIP I need to try.

I've shot 5 deer w/ t3's and recovered 4. The one I lost was due to my poorly placed shot. This was from a bow chronographed @ 277 give or take, similar arrow weight.
Never had any issues with them besides the threads on the ferrule. Use the heavier springs if you are really worried.
